This trip was excellent value. The Felucca trip was excellent and took us along a stretch of shoreline that was teeming with wildlife. The skipper was a lovely, charming man who seemed determined to give us a lovely, serene experience and provided drinks and fruit for the trip. The guide was a lovely knowledgeable local lady who accompanied us throughout the trip. She provided a great guided tour around the Luxor Temple which whilst busy was a fantastic. This was best trip we did all holiday!!!

De excursie was gepland om 4h te duren , helaas warzn wij na twee uur inclusief reistijd al terug op hotel, alles kon niet snel genoeg gaan. We hebben op de boot geen fruit gekregen zoals vermeld stond en ook zijn we maar een klein half uurtje aan boord geweest, veel zondsondergang was er dus niet aan, ook dit stond vermeld als een uur. Eens aan de tempel werden we snel uitleg toegestoken en kregen maar max een half uurtje om zelf te verkennen, jammer voor zoveel geld. Ik ben enorm teleuegesteld

We had a beautiful sail on the Nile . we would have liked that part to have been longer as it was lovely. Salma was our guide. She was very friendly and gave a real spark to the tour. It was a lovely visit.

Really enjoyed the sail and the boatman got us in a wonderful spot for the sunset. The tour guide was very comfortable to be with and informative at the temple. Remember to take a small amount of Egyptian cash with you to tip the boatman and guide. We didn’t but did arrange for an envelope with cash to be delivered through our tour guide Anton. Also have money if you need the loo. Our guide had to pay for me.
