Private Felucca Ride on the Nile in Cairo

Overview

Soak in the beautiful city lights of Cairo aboard a felucca. These Egyptian sailboats have been used for millennia to move up and down the Nile, but they are also ideal for a relaxing evening cruise to escape the bustle of the city. The view is spectacular, especially at sunset.

Mostafa was very polite & friendly. He made sure that I was comfortable & enjoying my felucca ride. Mostafa pointed out ke landmarks & also took photos that was helpful as a solo traveller.

Agréable balade en felouque sur le Nil, notre guide Mona et le chauffeur sont venus nous chercher au point de rendez vous. Puis nous avons attendu un peu avant de monter sur le bateau. Le tour a duré jusqu’au coucher du soleil, la vue était incroyable. Je recommande !

This was an amazing time on the Nile. Omar was a very good guide and provided an experience we will never forget. The Felucca boat was smooth sailing and the weather was perfect for relaxing right before sunset. In addition, they will pick you up and drop you off to your hotel/villa. I highly recommend this for families, small groups, or couples wanting to chill on the Nile for a few hours.
