Tour privato ad Assuan: Felucca e villaggio nubiano

We decided last minute to book this tour and we couldn't have made a better decision. It is a true experience ofifw in Aswan. Our guide Mohammed Salah was kind, informative and cheerful. Even around the snapping crocodile

Very informative guide Moataz Salah with a great sense of humour. Nubian village was fascinating. Swim in the Nile along the way which was unexpected. Boat drivers are very safe. A couple of surprises thrown in which was a lovely touch.

Great 4-hour experience with Moataz! We were a couple for the tour, in a small group, ideal for enjoying the Nile. We enjoyed the felucca on the Nile for an hour and then went to a beach to swim in the great heat; it was fantastic! We visited a Nubian village for an hour, a very good experience that we highly recommend for your stay in Aswan!!

Very good experience with Moataz, he explained to us all about Nubian culture with passion, we really appreciated it and had a such relaxing long afternoon trip on Nile river with felluca.i strongly recommend!

We had a perfect afternoon with Moataz, he explain with passion every details of Nubian culture, and the felluca experience is just wonderful, fully recommend！

Excellent excursion! Top organization, great atmosphere and beautiful scenery. No complaints, I highly recommend! Thanks to Motaz Salah😃

Booked a Felucca + Nubian Village visit. Got a first hand view of the culture of Nubian people. Visited a Nubian house, got to hold a baby Nile croc! They were welcoming and treated us to ethnic bread, cheese, sweet delicacy tea and most importantly authentic Nubian warmth. Struck some brilliant deals by helping the hell out on a few items of shopping. The only disappointing (especially for my daughter) part was the lack of wind hence the Felucca sails weren't unfurled. I missed the parts where we picked some exotic spices n teas (not found even in India!) and the nice lil camel ride. And not to forget the bit of frolick in the Nubian golden sand. The overall excursion was very well managed by Ahmed Saied - he was lovely n patient. Overall fab experience for the full family!

We were really looking forward to this trip to finish off our trip to Egypt - I had read some brilliant reviews about the Felucca at sunset and how lovely the Nubian village was - unfortunately this was not the case for us - advertised as a 4 hour trip - we chose a 3pm start to ensure a good sunset - it didn’t start well as the guide was 30 minutes late (apparently couldn’t find our boat) though we thought these things happen - we were then shown to a motor boat - not a Felucca - we were told it was too windy so would go to the village by this way and if wind dropped we would come back by Felucca - so we got in the boat and off we set - what a big disappointment - the engine of the boat was so noisy we could not hear what the guide was saying or even have a conversation to each other - the driver of the boat was on his phone a llot of the journey / it was such a shame as it was beautiful views but we were unable to appreciate the surroundings. I believe the driver and guide realised we were not happy and showed us a text offering us a Felucca trip for an additional 10 or 20 euros depending how whether 1 hour or 2 hours were also shown We arrived at the village - well what a disappointment - this was just one big area of market stalls - we were shown inside one of the houses and given a drink but nothing was really explained about their culture. We then wandered around the stalls for a while before getting back on the motor boat - the journey back was through the other side of the islands - do many birds about but could not hear them due to the very noisy engine - as we had shown our disappointment we were taken to a Felucca on the return where we boarded this and watched the set up and then had 25 minutes sailing - (this was the best part the trip - but 25 minutes out of a supposedly 4 hour trip !!!) Our trip finished at 6pm - 2.5 hours not 4 - and before the real sunset - really sad to have to write this as we have done many Viator trips over the years and recommended the company .

The tour was brilliant, and mainly because of our brilliant guide - Ahmed Saied. He was very friendly, and brimming with knowledge about the local area and culture.

This trip was fantastic. I would say one of the best times I've had in Egypt so far. And Ashraf was a big part of the reason. Very calm and didn't try to sell us anything. When we went to tip him, at first he declined and we needed to force him. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. It was a great way of doing something fun in a relaxing way.
