In the late afternoon, a representative will pick you up from your Luxor hotel and escort you to the Nile's edge, where your felucca awaits. Once aboard, settle into the comfortable cushions and let the tranquility of the Nile's waters envelop you. As you sail, enjoy a refreshing drink and take in the timeless landscapes along the riverbanks, including children at play, working animals, and farmers tending their fields in scenes unchanged for thousands of years.
Your journey takes you to Banana Island, known for its lush banana plantations. Here, the captain will dock the felucca for a short tour of the island, where you'll be treated to traditional Egyptian tea and some of the freshest bananas you've ever tasted. As you continue to sail, watch the sun dip below the horizon of the West Bank, casting a golden glow over everything it touches.
This peaceful felucca ride offers a moment to reflect on the day's adventures and the ancient rhythm of life along the Nile. After returning to the shore, you'll be transferred back to your hotel in Luxor, carrying with you memories of a serene and picturesque evening on one of the world's most famous rivers.
