Beautiful experience

We had a great time, there was little to no wind when we started but our guides did amazing, we anchored for a while watching the sunset and sailed when we had some breeze. Our fantastic guide even gave more sailing time due to the slow start.. amazing experience.

Fantastic Feluken Boat Ride at Sunset - WOW

The Felunken sunset tour was simply poignant away. So peaceful and the sunset was impressive. We were served hibiscus tea and could end the wonderful evening in very nice company with Mohamed and crew. All our expectations were exceeded Mohamed from Flucca Boat in Luxor told us a lot about the history and life in Egypt and about the Nile and gave us several tips for our onward journey. He could speak German very well, but can speak several languages. We had a great time and can highly recommend this boat tour to everyone. At the end Mohamed gave us another gift. What a hospitality - we will definitely come back.
