Private Felucca Sailing Trip in Aswan on the Nile

Overview

In Aswan, a felucca sailing trip on the Nile offers a peaceful, relaxing way to take in the city. A tour guide will pick you up from your hotel or another agreed location in the afternoon. You’ll then board a traditional felucca — a wooden sailboat that has been used on the Nile for thousands of years — and set out to enjoy the sights and sounds of the river and the city from the water. Along the way, the captain may stop at various riverside sites. Typical stops may include Elephantine Island, the botanical gardens and the Mausoleum of Aga Khan, giving you chances to see different aspects of Aswan’s landscape and history. As the sun begins to set, you’ll watch colours reflect across the water and the city skyline, a quiet moment that is ideal for photos and simply relaxing as the river drifts by.
