Overview

You will enjoy a private felucca trip on the Nile to Aswan Botanical Gardens, accompanied by an Egyptologist who will guide your visit. As you sail to Kitchener Island, you'll take in river views and learn about the garden's history and plant life from a knowledgeable local expert. On arrival, you'll step onto the lush shores of Kitchener Island, a garden isle of about 16.8 acres (6.8 hectares) planted with palm trees, sandalwood and a variety of exotic species. Along the way you will hear how the gardens were first planted by a legendary British military leader and explore a small botanical museum that tells the island's story. The setting offers a tranquil, shady Nile oasis where you can relax and enjoy the surroundings.
