About this experience
Experience the timeless charm of ancient Egypt on our Felucca Sailing Trip on the Nile in Aswan. Our trip begins with a pick up in a comfortable, air conditioned vehicle from your hotel to the Nile. A private car will be provided for groups to ensure exclusivity and comfort. Feel the cool breeze on your face and observe the spectacular vistas of Aswan as you glide peacefully along the Nile on a traditional felucca, a wooden sailing boat that's been used since the time of the Pharaohs. Let your worries drift away as our experienced crew navigates across the world's longest river.
