Sail in a felucca on the Nile, Aswan

A journey in a felucca is full of adventures. You will have the possibility to visit historical sites on the Nile banks, meet peasants, enjoy Nubian meals prepared in front of you by the crew, or sing and dance around campfires on shore. For those seeking relaxation, you will have enough time to lie back on your mattress, watch life on the Nile banks pass you by, read a book or just listen to the sound of the birds and wind. You will have the entire felucca at your private disposal. No other passengers on board. A surreal tour!
