Great boat ride - It was very calm and beautiful, our guide Mohammed Desoky was very nice and lively to chat. The boat was very nice and the views are like in the movie.

Stopover - You have to have had the experience, it was certainly rich in experience and the insight into the traditions of the Nubian people is also praiseworthy

Relaxing enjoyable Fluka - It was just nice , relaxing and not an expensive way to enjoy a slow short trip on the Nile. The water fountain was a nice addition; the kids loved it.

A different way to see Cairo. - We had a great time with Hossam Capoo. He was a fun guy who went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. Highly recommend him!

Worthwhile - Amazing. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an authentic experience on the Nile. The tour guide was informative and entertaining. Quite a decent photographer as well.

Great guide; rubbish trip - Our guide; Ibrahim, was great! Super guy, kind and considerate. But this is a rubbish trip. Nothing to see. Really disappointing. And mis-sold in terms of the food aspect. I really would not recommend it, not at all worth it. Not a reflection on Ibrahim - he is great!

Nice but outrageously overpriced - The boat ride was great, the driver was nice and friendly, the boat captain was excellent; 2 stars because of it being extremely overpriced for 45-minute boat ride and koshary.

Overpriced - The ride is not worth the price. We where suppose to get welcome drinks and there were none to be had. We went out for 45 and the guide did not explain anything to us she was on the phone most of the time. Also the food they offer is fast food which we do. not eat and had to go somewhere else to eat. Overpriced

Not worth and overpriced experience! - The agency in charge of the felucca cruise is super untrustworthy for the following reasons: No prior communication from their side to confirm the pickup and rest of details. The day before, we made first contact asking them to confirm the ride - no reply. The day of the booking, several calls were made and messages were sent - no reply. The peak point was when someone picked up after several tries and dropped the call as soon as he heard English. Finally, 5 minutes before the cruise was about to start, we receive a message from our guide. Long story short, we managed to get onboard. Regarding the ride itself, this was no cruise, we just rode back and forth on the same route. Sunset was nice and the setting was romantic. Lunch provided was definitely not worth it and not worth the extra overpriced cost. At least the guide was friendly and super talkative. Overall, waste of money, totally overpriced.
