An authentic experience on the Nile.
An absolutely brilliant experience on a felucca, from start to finish! Everything was perfect, from the pickup until the end of the excursion. Eidi was very accommodating, available, and friendly throughout the day. We also had the chance to share this experience with Ahmed, the cook, who prepared some truly excellent food for us, right before our eyes. A real treat! The felucca is very comfortable and you quickly feel at home there. We were able to swim in the Nile, chat quietly, enjoy a magnificent sunset, and even learn a few sailing basics thanks to Eidi's advice. Beyond the excursion itself, it was above all a very beautiful human experience that we lived. The atmosphere was friendly, authentic, and truly pleasant. Excellent value for money as well. You can go there with your eyes closed, we recommend it 100%! 🇪🇬⛵️

timeless experience
Very beautiful experience on this felucca with Captain EID, a very charming and warm person. The meals are excellent and hearty, prepared by Ahmed. I highly recommend!

Fantastic sailing trip on the Nile (1 day and night)
A few weeks ago (July ’26) we made a trip with My Dream Felucca from Aswan to Kom Ombo with a family of 2 adults and 2 children (10 and 13 years). We sailed 1 day and then slept 1 night on the boat. The next day, transport was provided to Luxor with stops in Kom Ombo and Edfu. The contact in advance went smoothly via Whatsapp. It is a beautiful sailboat with enough space for us 4. There was even a toilet, sink, sockets, mosquito net and fan (although this was not really necessary). The roof gave plenty of shade and despite the outside temperatures of around 40°C it was very pleasant on the boat. The Nile provided sufficient cooling and wind. Even at night it was chilly enough to sleep without air conditioning. It was a very relaxed day where we enjoyed the peace and the beautiful views over the Nile. There was also a stop for swimming in the Nile, which we also enjoyed. The food on board was very tasty and varied. Also for our children there was always something they liked. As far as we are concerned, this is definitely recommended!

Nubian village boat trip to Nile
A half-day trip to Nubian Village on Captain Eid Khalil's boat was another feeling, cozy and comfortable. The captain introduced us to the scenery along the way, stopping by for a number of photo shoots and a bit of beach play. Go to Nubian village to the villagers' house for tea and paint Haina holding crocodile, experience full of feeling, village souvenirs are also very distinctive, highly recommended!

Very pleasant stroll on the Nile
Very enjoyable two-hour felucca ride at sunset on the Nile in Aswan! The crew is friendly and the ride on the water took place in a calm and relaxed atmosphere 😌 I recommend!!!!

A magical experience
I had already sailed with Eid two years ago, accompanied by my brother, and we loved that two-day, two-night experience, sailing with the wind. Back in Egypt with my partner this time, the felucca was a must in the program! We had less time, one day and one night, then a taxi back was scheduled for the next morning. He loved it so much that we asked in the evening to finally return with the crew the next day. Traveling on a felucca, even for a day, is a timeless experience where you take the time to do nothing, just enjoy the moment. And at no point were we bored in this serene and calm atmosphere. The crew, consisting of Eid, Ahmed, and Mido, was discreet and very friendly, and the food was always so simple and good that the few restaurants we visited, although authentic and delicious, did not leave us with the same fond memory. We returned with the desire to come back again.

Wonderful experience with two captains, Mustafa and his brother ! It was a deep travel with the people village, the Felluca trip was so relaxing, perfect meals and the best was all the interactions and conversations to share with both guides ;) Thank’s for this memories !

The Nile in Fellouque
The cruise on the sailing boat was a wonderful time out of time over the water with very friendly and competent equipment.
