After you are picked up from your hotel, you will be transported to the water in an air-conditioned vehicle. Board the boat and relax on the soft cushions. Then enjoy a cool drink as you gently glide down the river. Look around you for scenes that have not changed in millennia. See the children playing in the water, observe the camels, and watch the farmers going about their work in the same ways they have done for centuries, and admire the water buffalo and a wide variety of birds and wildlife. Then watch as the sun sets slowly over the West Bank.

Amazing! - Private boat only for two people with two young guys who are very nice and pro for their age. I was able to dive with them in the Nile, they offered us tea and water.

Cute private felucca ride, would do it again - Driver picked us up promptly and took us to the boat area, gave us water and juices to take on the felucca with us. He offered to take pictures of us and, off we went really close to where the sun was visible and could see it starting to set. This was a very relaxing and quiet ride and we really liked it. I highly recommend

Luxor. - Aladdin and mahmud Are very kind people they are also very generous. The felluca boat was very nice, it’s best to take it at sunset so there is a little bit of breeze. They took us to bana island where we saw some animals, and we got fresh fruit from the island as gift.

Gorgeous Sunset Felucca ride with Captain Al Adin. - The Felucca ride on The Nile in Luxor was the best highlight of my trip.
My niece and I rode on Al Adin's felucca with Mahmoud from Egypt Lovely Tours and we had the best time. We had lovely conversation with Al Adin and Mahmoud, some good laughs and a beautiful ride on this historic and majestic river. We stopped off on an island where locals grow their own food and subsist on everything they need from the island.
We witnessed a gorgeous sunset back on the felucca before docking to end the night.
I would whole heartedly recommend Al Adins felucca! 10/10

Beautiful Nile Ride - This was such a great experience! I had such a relaxing time on the Felucca ride. Captain Al Adin was very welcoming, friendly and hospitable. The driver Mahmoud provided us with great hospitality and knowledge about Luxor. This experience is a must do if you’re looking for a relaxing end to your day with a beautiful view. Thank you so much Al Adin and Mahmoud!!
