This was a beautiful experience. Captain Sabri and his partner welcomed us kindly on the felucca. They made conversation and kept us company, but also provided us with space and time for ourselves. We were provided with karkare (hibisucs tea) as per the package. We would definitely recommend them to our friends. Nile on a felucca on a pleasant day - a must-do. Please note the Nile waters In Luxor are way more dreamier than in Cairo.

We had a wonderful experience on the Johnny Depp: Black Pearl Felucca Ride in Luxor. The ride itself was peaceful and scenic, and we were offered hibiscus tea, which was lovely. We enjoyed learning about the Nile and the surrounding history while sailing. The atmosphere was relaxing and gave us a beautiful perspective of Luxor from the water. We especially appreciated Mahmoud, our driver. He was reliable, professional, and so helpful that we ended up using his services for additional transportation during our stay in Luxor. That made everything much easier for us. Overall, a very enjoyable and

It was amazing and surreal experience. Our transfer was very easy and Aladdin was great guide who picked us up and guide through out. Tea served on boat was nice and guys operating the ship put their extra effort as there was no wind and open flap on our request. Overall great experience and we loved it
