A moment of relaxation - Nice walk on the Nile. The 3 young sailors were smiling and shared their daily lives.

Comfortable and fun Nile sailing - Thank you Mina, Adel and Ali for a fun and unforgettable trip. In addition to enjoying the Nile scenery, also played fun Middle East drums. The benefit of booking directly on TripAdvisor is to skip the annoying price section and keep your focus on enjoying the Nile River.

Sunset ride on the Nile in Luxor - The ride was smooth the captain was pleasant. They tried giving us a really old boat that needed a lick of paint and cleaner seating so we requested a different boat. Our Apartment organised our ride and it came with a hot meal that we choose the night before. The food was succulent and meat melted in your mouth. It was a beautiful sunset ride with our own music connected to their Bluetooth, it was very nice evening ride. Well worth the money. We got picked up from the Apartment on a motorbike so there was 3 of us on the bike. That's normal for Egyptians. They never collected us though so we walked it back home.

Feluca ride. - The trip should’ve started at 4:30 but it did at 5:30.Very bad communication, had to chase the agency all day long to get any answers. The trip itself was fun thanks to the guys on the boat, they went beyond to make us happy. Be prepared if there is not wind you will be pulled by a motor boat! The trip wasn’t an hour but just 25 minutes and we stayed at one place in front of the hotel.

Disappointing - Got on the felucca it was towed to a spot on the Nile opposite a building site , anchored there for an hour while some children made tea. Then the children tried to get us to dance to some recorded CD music , then they played 2 drums , after an hour towed back to dock and took back to hotel , a strange experience

Guide was non-existent... - Guide was non-existent and totally disinterested. He didn’t speak a word during boat ride. Also on hotel return he did not even join us; only had the driver drop us off. Totally unacceptable user experience.
