Overview

Arranging your own sunset ‘felucca’ sailboat ride on the River Nile in Luxor involves haggling with boat owners and organizing transport to and from the riverside. Prebook with Viator to avoid the hassle, and enjoy the added benefit of an on-board guide to identify and commentate on the sights. Then, simply sit back and soak up the scenery and calm of the Nile undistracted by transport and payment worries.
