Overview
Sunset sailing on a felucca in Luxor is a breathtaking experience. Feluccas are traditional wooden sailboats that gracefully glide along the Nile River, providing a unique and tranquil way to witness the stunning sunset over Luxor's ancient landmarks. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky transforms into a palette of warm hues, casting a golden glow on the surrounding temples and landscapes. The gentle swaying of the felucca, the soothing sound of the water, and the majestic scenery create a magical ambiance that captures the essence of Egypt's rich history and natural beauty. It's a serene and romantic way to connect with the past while enjoying the present moment.

Very nice experience. The boat Ride is fantastic INTO the Sunset. The tour guide and company were fabulous. It is something everybody should try to do at least once.

I really enjoyed it.
I'm really happy with that. Everyone was kind and I was able to experience something I couldn't in Japan. The car was comfortable and the tea was delicious.

To do!
It was a crazy experience. We were picked up directly from the hotel ( perfectly on time). Salah welcomed us on the boat of Ashraff, Ali and Mohamed which was also very friendly and welcoming. Very peaceful and relaxing activity along the Nile not to be missed. Seeing the sunset was crazy. The pilots are young but very competent

Superbe balade
Captain Adel and his crew are great. We spent 2 very intense hours together. He left me the helm to navigate, we sang and danced! I don’t forget our very friendly driver Salah who took all the pictures. An almost family Mood!!!

The crew was extremely friendly and welcoming. The peaceful sail on the Nile during sunset was absolutely magical and unforgetta
This was truly an unforgettable experience! Sailing on the felucca during sunset was magical – the views of the Nile were absolutely stunning, and the atmosphere was so peaceful. The boat was comfortable, and the gentle breeze made it even more relaxing. Our captain was friendly, professional, and shared interesting facts about the area, which added to the experience. Watching the sun dip below the horizon over the Nile was simply breathtaking. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Luxor – it’s the perfect way to end your day!

Didn't experience it.
I had a wait for my flight after another tour earlier in the day which picked me up and dropped me off at the airport. Therefore i decided to book the 2 hr fellucia boat ride with transportation and was told I had to pay an extra $20 for pick up after going back and forth I requested a refund and keep getting calls and text from 3 different people at that company. I did get a WhatsApp stating if I cancel, They will give me a full refund? So why is everyone there calling me? Stress is not what I need on this trip. Im sure this company is not bad but if you already stated you will give me.a refund, don't have other.people calling me.

Sunset sailing on the Nile
Lovely afternoon on the water! Tamer, our guide, picked us up from our hotel and took us to our feluka. The guys sailing the boat were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Tamer also came along and was there to answer any questions we had. Very much enjoyed some relaxation while sailing and dangling our feet in the water.

So much fun!!!
Awesome experience!!! Salah was an amazing tour guide. Punctual and so much fun. The sailing was great and he was great host with offering tea. Convinced us to swim in Nile River at banana island which was so much fun!! Dancing and singing on way back was so much fun too!!! He took pictures and videos and sent them all to us immediately after tour. Highly recommend.
