Nile Felucca Ride-These Egyptian sailboats have been used for millennia to move up and down the Nile, but they are also ideal for a relaxing evening cruise to escape the bustle of the city.
The felucca offers some welcome shade and protection from the sun (and other elements), but there are no cabins or enclosed areas.
Passengers will sleep in the open air on a communal mattress for the night. You’ll be provided with a blanket, but you may wish to bring a sleeping bag during the cooler months.
It’s worth mentioning that these can be rented locally, so you don’t need to worry about lugging one all the way from home.
Once aboard you’ll journey along the river between these two spots, but how far you travel is heavily dependent on the wind and water current.

What to Expect:
Excursion Overview:
Feluccas are the traditional sailboats of Egypt Nile. Egyptians and foreigners alike enjoy a relaxing felucca ride, as they are perfect for catching the breeze on a hot summer night, for brisker sails the rest of the year and watching the sunset anytime.
They are ideal for an impromptu party after work, a romantic evening, and for soothing the tots on the weekends. It is not unusual for friends to get together and rent a felucca for an hour or two for a small social gathering. Such gatherings, frequently after sunset, may not do much sailing at all, but simply sit in a quiet cove where everyone can enjoy the lights on the banks and the river traffic.
The felucca has remained, over the centuries, the primary transportation of the Nile. Its ancient form still graces the river as it has done since the time of the Pharaohs. Motorized barges transport bulk material and modern cruise ships transport tourists, but the felucca remains despite modern alternatives.
The felucca rarely has any form of engine and relies entirely on the breeze which builds during the day and usually subsides at night, and the Nile River’s current. Egypt is blessed with a predominant southerly wind that pushes sailboats upriver, while allowing them to return on its current downstream.
Feluccas are usually furnished with cushions around the circumference and a table fixed in the middle; where one can surely enjoy picnic style lunch or dinner while enjoying a different view of the metropolis. Your captain tucks his Galabeya (tradition Egyptian male dress) about his waist and steers with his feet, while busily drawing and letting the sail to and fro as the vessel tacks up and down the Nile.
Enjoy a relaxing experience of a felucca ride in the River Nile, where you can discover the amazing view of Luxor at night or enjoy the sunrise and the warm sun during the day.
We can also arrange your birthday party while sailing across the Nile.
Kindly Note That:
No shoes are allowed on deck to avoid contact with your sleeping mattress, so they’re left in a basket at the front of the boat when boarding.
Swimming is safe (and encouraged). The section of water between Aswan and Luxor is clean and taking a dip is a real highlight.
You can enjoy a drink onboard, although these need to be ordered in advance. Please mention this to your guide and crew ahead of departure.
We’ve been working with the same felucca provider for 15 years and Captain Jamaica (or JJ to his friends) is a core part of the Intrepid family.
