Romantic Nile Sunset in Felluca

Private tour in Luxor

Tour Price : $20 per person Duration : 2 hours Languages: Arabic, English, French

You may think that all private tours in Egypt are about the ancient stuff and there’s no place for romance in these ancient temples and complexes. However, if you look close enough there are many romantic places and opportunities to enjoy during your stay in Egypt. This tour is certainly one of such experiences, as it takes you on a very picturesque and relaxed boat ride on Nile River and renders a perfect tranquil afternoon with an unbelievable sunset at the end of the ride.

The tour starts in the afternoon, as you are taken from your hotel to the docks on the river and embarked on a felucca. These sailboats, especially their interesting sail shape, have been one of the most recognized symbols of Egypt and the Nile. In fact, it’s one of the rare places in the world where such boats are still being used, despite their wide spread in different parts of the planet. The angular shade of the sail and the quiet creak of the wooden boat, not disturbed by the noise of a motor, will set the perfect atmosphere for your ride.

We’ll stop by the Banana Island located on the river, where bananas and lemons are grown. You’ll enjoy a very interesting lecture about the techniques used to grow these fruits in such a hot environment and also have a taste of the products grown here. Taking a short walk on the island, you’ll be taken back to the felucca for the final part of the ride.

As you’ll sail back to Luxor, the gorgeous view of the setting sun and the tranquil  flow of the water underneath the boat will create the perfect romantic moment. If you’re planning a proposal or another important event during your Egyptian vacation, there’s certainly no better time to do it then on this boat trip. We’ll assist you with any requests you may have so that everything goes smoothly and according to your plan. The best tour for couples and families, so make sure to book it advance and discuss any details you feel necessary.
