Must Do

When in Aswan, you just have to go on a felucca tide. We chose the sunset felucca ride. Totally worth it and a nice evening activity before dinner. It is very peacefull and the organizer sails from a place were the Nile is wide. You sail until the sun has set and then return. Also very good communication for this trip. I booked it one day before the activity and got immediate confirmation.

Our Favorite Egypt Experience

There are two ways to enjoy the Felcuca ride—enjoy the peace and quiet on the river or ask the Captain many questions! We partook in both. Captain Safi was so kind and informative. The Nile was very serene the night we went. My husband asked as we walked away: “Should we get a sailboat?”

The boat was really nice, clean, and comfortable, making it the perfect way to enjoy the Nile at sunset. The views were beautiful, and the whole experience was relaxing and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Aswan. 10/10.

Great Felucca ride with great company!

The felucca ride was great, and I would definitely recommend! Omar was very communicative via WhatsApp since the moment we booked the tour with him, and he provided very clear information and instructions. On the day of the tour, he picked us at the hotel on time, and he drove us to the dock where we met the boat Captain and his assistant. The felucca ride lasted 1.5 hours, and it was wonderful. They ride along the Nile river around the main island, and we were able to sightsee and enjoy a beautiful sunset. They also served us some tea (free of charge), and they brought us back to the dock where Omar was waiting for us to take us back to the hotel (the boat captain and Omar were in close communication via phone). No one asked us for a tip. The whole experience was great and worth it, especially for the price.

Unforgettable Felucca Ride on the Nile

The felucca ride was a beautiful and relaxing way to experience the Nile. Our guide was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and made everything easy from hotel pick-up to the boat ride and even a stop at a local shop as we requested. Highly recommend this unforgettable experience!
