We had very limited time before our flights and this suited our situation perfectly. It was quick and easy to arrange. With good communication over WhatsApp. The driver was on time and very pleasant. The captain was entertaining and let us hold the tiller for a quick photograph. If you in a time crunch and want to tick the Nile off your bucket list this is for you.

Hassan our "Captain" was delightful. His kind and gentle approach was wonderful. He knew the river and durrounding area and whilst his English wasnt fluent it was enough for us to understand, to add an extra touch to our journey. Would recommend this over the party boats anytime!

We had a wonderful felucca ride. Very peaceful and scenic. A great step away from the busy traffic on the streets of Cairo. Mustafa was a great driver too. 10/10 all round.

The boat ride was nice, but the area was limited by bridges on both sides. For one hour this is no problem, but we had the two hours tour. This meant we did the same circle twice, which was a bit boring. Overall the experience was very chill and laid back, but we expected to see a bit more of the city than a single pond.

Impeccable prise en charge, chauffeur et capitaine très sympathique. J'ai mis une étoile en moins car la navigation du felouque était limitée à l'espace entre les deux ponts.

My husband and I went on the private 1 hour felucca ride on Aug.19 and had a wonderful time! We went in the evening and it was so peaceful-- feeling the breeze and seeing the lights of the city. Our captain was friendly and professional (an older gentleman from Luxor, unfortunately forgot his name) and explained all the sights. We also had a great driver (Ahmed?) who was super cool and shared a lot of information. Would definitely recommend!

We were collected from our hotel in time and the service was great. When we got to the boat they upgraded us for no extra cost. The boat ride was calm and enjoyable. I would use these guys again and recommend all to use them as well. Great service
