Our Favorite Egypt Experience
There are two ways to enjoy the Felcuca ride—enjoy the peace and quiet on the river or ask the Captain many questions! We partook in both. Captain Safi was so kind and informative. The Nile was very serene the night we went. My husband asked as we walked away: “Should we get a sailboat?”

We had a great experience on this felucca ride in Aswan. The owner was really friendly, welcoming, and made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived. The boat was really nice, clean, and comfortable, making it the perfect way to enjoy the Nile at sunset. The views were beautiful, and the whole experience was relaxing and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Aswan. 10/10.

Great Felucca ride with great company!
The felucca ride was great, and I would definitely recommend! Omar was very communicative via WhatsApp since the moment we booked the tour with him, and he provided very clear information and instructions. On the day of the tour, he picked us at the hotel on time, and he drove us to the dock where we met the boat Captain and his assistant. The felucca ride lasted 1.5 hours, and it was wonderful. They ride along the Nile river around the main island, and we were able to sightsee and enjoy a beautiful sunset. They also served us some tea (free of charge), and they brought us back to the dock where Omar was waiting for us to take us back to the hotel (the boat captain and Omar were in close communication via phone). No one asked us for a tip. The whole experience was great and worth it, especially for the price.

Wonderfully relaxed
Safi gave us a lovely quiet congratulations cruise with a nice cup of tea. We really enjoyed it.
When we asked him an idea to eat in the evening, he took us with his motorboat to a fantastic place with great food. He even waited on the spot to take us back to the hotel by boat.
