I recommend this trip without hesitation! Everything was perfect. If you want to have a unique experience as a couple, with family, or with friends: this is the perfect felucca! The welcome is simple and well explained, the team is responsive and replies very quickly. The felucca is typical and very comfortable. Under the roof, there is a large space to relax in the cool, sheltered from the sun! Ideal for playing cards, reading, or taking a nap… On the roof, it is the perfect place to lounge, sunbathe, and admire the beautiful sunsets. The chef is top-notch: we eat extremely well and in large quantities! It is very pleasant to chat and learn more about this beautiful country and this region. We discover wild places, swim in the Nile, and meet very welcoming Nubian families! Best experience on the Nile!!! Thank you!!!

With Ahmed and Waleed, we spent two fantastic days. Ahmed is an exceptional cook and a very attentive person, and Waleed is a great captain. I highly recommend it. Even though it was hot, it was very comfortable on the felucca. Additionally, we took some dives in the Nile and went fishing. An unforgettable experience.

We had a very good time with Tarik and Seleman along the Nile. Between magnificent landscapes, encounters, and very good meals, we created a beautiful memory. I recommend it!

We spent a day and a night on a felucca with Tarik & Seleman. It was a magnificent experience and especially a wonderful encounter. Beyond the landscapes and the tranquility of the Nile, we exchanged and shared good moments, and we also ate very well and discovered delicious Egyptian specialties. Everything was perfect from the beginning; thank you to Tarik and Seleman for everything!

We had a great 3-night-experience on the nile with Tarek and Sulayman. They took really good care of us and the food was amazing. I am vegetarian and I always had more than enough food. There were no other guests but my friend and I, therefore it was a very calm, quiet journey. If you enjoy the simple life and can live without a proper shower for 3 days - this tour is for you!
It really was an amazing experience. And the guys that went with us on the boat worked really hard! The boat was very comfortable and the food was the best we had in Egypt so far. Would really recommend. We saw so many beautifull places.

We enjoyed the 3 nights/4 days tour from Aswan to Luxor with Tarik and Sulayman very much. We had a great time on the Nile, excellent food and the two were very helpful and welcoming.

All the family has loved our cruise on the Nile with the felucca ! During 3 nights we have sailed on the Nile with Captain Ali and Mustafa. The felucca is very comfortable (mattress, blankets, mosquito net), Sailing only (no motor at all) and listen music all together. Ali sailed with a very sure and good expertise. Mustafa cooked delicious meals, in such reduced kitchen. They both have been very pleasant travel partners, and we enjoyed our cruise so much! We told them: Thanks to you we have cruised beautifully, slept like in a palace, and eaten as in a restaurant.

I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 night/3 day Fellucca adventure sailing to Kom Ombo from Aswan, with Captain Tarik & First mate/Cook Sulayman. They warmly & cheerfully took care of us, making sure we had our needs met. Captain Tarik steered the Fellucca very skillfully (having 30 years of experience) & when there was no wind or we were going under a bridge he was rowing! Sulayman, in his tiny kitchen corner, amazingly prepared very delicious meals every day, which we enjoyed altogether. There was another person who joined me on this trip & that worked out well as we then shared the cost of both the Fellucca journey & the private car ride to Luxor (via Edfu Temple) after the sailing ended. Sailing down the Nile in a Fellucca is totally chill & relaxing; really good for body, mind & spirit🤩 There's a small, clean toilet but no showers so be prepared. Mosquito proof tents & blankets were provided at night and I was comfortable & slept soundly. I highly recommend JJ Jamaica👍 They were always quick to respond to my WhatsApp messages, and this made it also easy for me to book a private trip to Abu Simbel with them as they offered a good deal for what I needed. And I give 5 stars for that trip too⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you JJ, Captain Tarik, Sulayman & Marco🙏

Outdid our expectations in every way! Not only was it super peaceful with amazing views but the service was also really good. Some of the best meals we have had in Egypt and the crew were fun and friendly to get along with. The only downside is that we wished we did it for longer!
