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!

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.

Amazing sunset boat, best crew ever - Ahmed was our main guide and picked us up from our hotel right on time as expected. The drive was comfortable and the felucca was amazing. All of the boys on board were very sweet and attentive and made us lovely tea and took many photos for us. They also played us fun Nubian music and danced along. The boat was very big and spacious and comfortable. I highly recommend this experience and would be happy to do it again.

The best experience of my entire trip - Book without thinking, it was the best experience of our entire trip!! Ahmed, Faris and Mohammed made us feel like their loved ones, an impeccable welcome, an experience filled with laughter and especially humanity. They made us play music, dance, play a funny game, everything was way above our expectations. They obviously told us about luxor and the Nile, they explained the things we saw, ... It is really an experience not to be missed, again a huge thank you to them for this unforgettable experience!

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.
