Overview

On this outing along the Nile, you will sail aboard a genuine felucca, one of Egypt’s heritage vessels. As the boat glides across the water, you will enjoy the river’s calm scenery and get a sense of traditional Egyptian life, stepping back in time as you move along the banks. The felucca voyage will be followed by an authentic Egyptian lunch. You will be served a variety of traditional dishes that reflect local flavours and culinary heritage, providing a fitting complement to your time on the Nile. The combination of the peaceful sail and the regional meal offers a simple, immersive way to connect with Egypt’s everyday history and culture.
