カイロツアーマニアル宮殿とフェルッカとランチ

The tour name says Cairo Tour Manial Palace and felucca with lunch. I think this is deceptive since I read that to mean we’d have a Cairo Tour followed by the Manial Palace then a felucca sail. No, it means just the Palace, a felucca (not necessarily much of a sail) and lunch. 1. We did the felucca tour first, but there was no wind so we floated over to the middle of the river and sat there for about an hour going nowhere looking at the same view. 2. The "palace" does not look palatial, like in the picture. The furniture is old and torn, everything faded and covered in dust. Just saying I don't think it is well kept. Entrance fee is only about $1 that is included in the cost. 3. The restaurant had a power outing and no running water. In 90 degrees they sat us at a table and opened a window, flies an’ all. To the company’s credit, when I asked for another restaurant, they did so, and fortunately for us it was far better than the original one. A word of advice to the tour company. It is better to pick a restaurant that offers a buffet lunch where people can see what they want and can usually find something they can settle for. 4. The guide was knowledgeable and pleasant. 5. To the company’s credit, it turned out only two of us booked this trip, but they still went ahead with the tour rather than cancel. We appreciate that. The cost of the tour is overpriced for what we got.

We had a marvelous day exploring the glorious Manial Palace with Zizou, followed by a tranquil Felucca ride on the Nile, then lunch on land. An Egyptologist and excellent storyteller, Zizou brought the palace's history to life with his deep knowledge and engaging stories. The tranquility of the felucca ride complimented the palace tour and offered us the chance to rest our legs and to chat with Zizou. Not only is he a wealth of knowledge but also a great conversationalist and wonderful company. If your trip to Egypt permits it, I definitely recommend including this tour in your itinerary. Despite being right smack in bustling Cairo, the grounds was pleasantly peaceful and the palace itself, spectacularly ornate and beautiful. And if you do book this tour, do ask specifically for Zizou.

This tour was a perfect compliment to our large tour itinerary as it covered experiences not included in our itinerary. Our guide Zizou was a fantastic fund of knowledge especially during our tour of the Manial Palace. We enjoyed our peaceful felucca ride and delicious lunch. All and all a great day.

Our tour was fantastic. Our guide Zizou was outstanding and provided a lot of interesting information during the tour. The Felucca ride on the Nile river was relaxing and the lunch was delicious!

Booked in advance, took the time to confirm with the tour operator 2 days in advance, last minute they contact me to inform there s a problem with my booking and that what I paid does not incude the tour which was clearly mentioned in my ticket but still they mentioned this was a mistake with Viator, I contacted viator to upgrade my ticket meanwhile they cancelled my tickets, another upsetting event in egypt, where you feel you could be cheated around each corner

Our tour guy Henry was the best and was so knowledgeable! His laid back personality made the tour very relaxing and enjoyable. The Nile cruise was beautiful and serene. A must cruise when visiting Egypt if you really want to take in the environment and atmosphere. Driving through the back roads of Egypt gave me a true insight of the culture and their way of leaving. All in all, the tour was very intriguing and the architectural art in the Manial was beautiful!

Our tour guide Henry was extremely knowledgeable about the Manial Palace. He explained in detail how the Palace and Mosque was built. His historic perspective taught us a lot about the societies, religions and cultures of the people living through the eras. He gave all of us a lot to think about. He was very personable and we all had a wonderful experience. The felucca ride on The Nile afterwards was wonderful.

The tour was so fun and educational about the history and significance of so many antiquities of Egypt! We really enjoyed Emad the tour guide and Mahmoud the driver. We would recommend to anyone!

The Feluca ride was a respite from the heat. It was perfect after the palace. Driving in Cairo is not for the faint of heart. Omar was a good driver so that we could relax and not pay attention to the honking horns. Emad is very knowledgeable. He gave us more than we asked even stopped twice for extra information. We feel knowledgeable about the history he provided. Deluxe Travel Egypt is a company I will recommend !

A wonderful break from ancient Egypt. Our guide Ahmed was very knowledgeable about the palace & Egypt history. The highlight for us was the Felucca ride on the Nile. So quiet & peaceful.
