Beautiful sunset

It was a great experience, even when they are young they have a good understanding of the river and the boat “Feluca” They were kind, polite and fun, they help me with pictures and for a solo women I felt safe at every minute.

Fun River Cruise!

We had a great chilled couple of hours on the boat, the hospitality was great. They stopped for us to do some bird watching and then also played some drums and danced with us!

The best activity in Luxor

What a pleasure to have been able to make a little bit of the Nile by traditional Egyptian boat. Everything was perfect, from the pick-up, to the walk and return. Thanks to the driver and all the crew for their good mood. I recommend without hesitation! It was perfect!

Unforgettable experience in Luxor

We decided to spend our last hours in Luxor doing this sailing sunset trip and it was the best decision we made! Amir and the three young captains of the boat were absolutely fantastic and very welcoming, taking pictures of us, inviting us for tea and dancing and singing together - this memory will definitely stay for a lifetime! A must to while in Luxor, and especially romantic for a couple.

Absolutely incredible! Must do!

Our private 2-hour felucca sailing on the Nile in Luxor was absolutely perfect from start to finish! Captain Momen was excellent — professional, friendly, and always smiling. The two other crew members, Kareem and Islam, were just as wonderful, taking great care of us throughout the sail and offering us different types of delicious tea. We felt completely safe and at home thanks to their kindness and warm hospitality. It happened to be my wife’s birthday, and the crew went above and beyond to make it a truly special and memorable experience — something we’ll never forget. Our driver, Salah, also deserves a mention for his professionalism. He picked us up right on time in a private, clean, and luxurious SUV, which made the whole experience seamless and comfortable. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Luxor. If you can, definitely request this amazing crew — Momen, Kareem, Islam, and Salah — they’ll make your Nile experience unforgettable!

Sailing on the Nile

An absolutely magical experience on the Nile! 🌅 We had an unforgettable time on board the felucca: the Mood was there, the crew offered us small games, delicious tea, and we were able to take great photos. It’s a very touristy activity, but definitely worth a visit — absolutely must-do if you’re around! The price is very affordable and the value for money is unbeatable. A huge thank you to Ali, Mahmood, Maraoan and Captain Faris for their kindness, their good humor and for making us live a magical moment on the Nile.
