A beautiful boat trip - The tour guide Mohamed was very nice and helpful and the driver Ashry was very safe and a good driver. We had a nice trip and could choose between a feluke and a motorboat as the wind was very weak for the feluke.

Good Experience - It's a good experience for the price, we got to pick the time of day, and an hour was enough for us especially in 40 degrees, picked up and dropped off at our hotel.

Beautiful sail on the River Nile. - The tour guide was professional and gave us information about the new area we were touring. The trip was calm and relaxing and so reasonably priced.

Nice, but much shorter than advertised. - Pick up from our hotel was smooth. Good communication from the tour supplier. You are essentially towed out off the jetty, and due to lack of wind, we drifted for about 30 mins without really going anywhere. We dirfted close to the shoreline next to the four Seasons hotel, and stayed there. However, it was a nice experience being on the Nile during the sunset, and out of the traffic noise and Chaos of Cairo. However don't expect a full hour. If you want a short experience for a few photos, then go for it. But if you are looking for an actual sailing experience, look elsewhere.

Picked up a little late-... - Picked up a little late- although the driver kept us informed throughout of his delay. Activity provider was very friendly and gave us lots of great facts about the Nile. Also happy to take plenty of great photos for us on the boat. However, the boat trip was only 30-35 minutes when we'd booked for an hour, which was a little annoying.

Waste of time - Basically you will just be waiting majority of the time. I booked for a 4pm ride, didn’t get on the boat until 4:40pm, and the boat is not a felucca either because they ran out of it.
We just circle a small section of the river over and over again like they are just trying to kill the hour.
The only reason I gave 2 stars is because the guides are really fun and helpful.
