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.
Nice relaxing activity! Really pleasant at the end of the day for sunset. Lets you see the landscape of the surrounding islands.
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
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.
Nice walk on the Nile. The 3 young sailors were smiling and shared their daily lives.
Very nice unfortunately it is not 2h walk but only 1h Thank you for the experience and for the small show!
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.
Relaxing, Fun, Scenic. The young crew entertained us with instruments, singing and interactive dance. Great outing
Unfortunately, no elephantine island seen, no appetizers get and the drive an hour with standing in the Nile a time without driving. Not as experienced and recommended in the description.
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.
