An unforgettable sunset felucca experience! - An unforgettable sunset felucca experience! Our felucca tour was absolutely amazing! From the moment we were picked up at the hotel until the very last dance on the Nile, everything was perfect. Karim, Omar, Youssef, Ahmed, and Adel made this experience truly special. They welcomed us with big smiles and warm hearts, served delicious hibiscus and mint tea, and helped us capture the most stunning photos during sunset. Sailing quietly on the Nile while watching the colors of Luxor’s sky change was magical — and ending the evening dancing with them on the boat was the perfect touch! If you want to experience Egyptian hospitality at its best, this team is simply the best choice. 💛 Thank you for making this moment one I’ll never forget. Habibi, welcome to Egypt!

Luxor hospitality at sunset - Pickup from west bank guest house ahead of time, very friendly and professional driver 'Ramses' with very good English; the felucca ride was at 15:30 for 2h which means you get to see the sun setting. First, multiple feluccas are pulled by a motorboat south (some noise from the motorboat and the tourists on the other boats who like to be entertained with dance and music), where they drift for a while - the sail is opened, and then closed again before returning (with an impressive climb up the mast). My boat had 2 young captains - the boys were very friendly and doing their best to ensure their passengers are happy, offering tea & co. All in all, great experience!

It was a very enjoyable, different, and wonderful experience. - The felucca trip was very enjoyable. Amir waited for us at the hotel, then we transferred to the felucca. Captain Mo'men was a wonderful person, and the trip was very enjoyable. They served us tea and delicious Kurdish coffee, and we took lovely photos at sunset. Then they held a party for us, which was very different and wonderful. Thank you very much.
