Omar -Omar Felucca private boat ride - Our private ride with the felucca was nice and relaxing .We got picked up from our hotel Our guide Omar was a young man very friendly and talkative . (Actually a university student) I had the opportunity to talk with him and learn about Egyptians daily routines , studies etc As for the ride in the Nile it is worth taking the ride ( not much to see , but one gets to enjoy the ride on the longest river in the world ) . We were dropped off back at our hotel and on the way back both the guide and also the young driver (Omar also ) who was an exceptional good driver wanted to treat us with their favourite and well know koshary meal unfortunately we did not have that much time for the meal we had to return to the hotel . We promised both next time when we visit Egypt . A quick note Omar the driver drove us to the airport also after midnight . His driving made us feel we were is good hands . Very good and responsible driver !

Great experience and very good value for money - Booked the previous night. Was collected promptly on time and driven to the boat. Had a great time touring the Nile. The captain was very accommodating and our guide (Azoma) was very friendly and spoke fluent English. All in all we enjoyed ourselves and would recommend this experience

Great tour, great guide! Kareem was fantastic! - My guide Kareem was 100% accommodating, patient, and professional! Perfect tour on the Nile! I had very little time in Cairo, and they still made it happen for me. I would do this again in a heartbeat!

Great excursion. We were alone so it was private! - Very nice memorable sailing time. A representative of the emo tours company came with a driver to pick us up. The representative also came into the sailboat with us. We took the trip during the golden evening hour. The city looked beautiful then. There was nobody else and it was a private tour for us (not sure because they didn't have anyone else booked or it was actually a private tour!). I was staying at marriott mena house, the other end of the city. 1 hour away in car. They still included the pickup & drop off. This exurcsion with them cost me $100 less than booking the exact same thing with my hotel!

No information- just a boat ride - We were picked up sharp on time and taken close to the Four Seasons hotel, dokdok docks to get on the boat. The ride is short circle towards the bridge and back. The fountain in the middle of the Nile wasn't working. Maybe because we'd been in Egypt for 3 days, the tour guide didn't say much at all. We asked questions about how the wooden boats are made, what the sail is made of, and historic sail materials. He didn't know. So don't expect an Egyptalogist!

A little bit underwhelming - This was indeed a nice felucca ride but not sure it is special when offered through this company. Our guide Mahmoud was a nice person and he offered to take nice photos of us on the boat. But unfortunately, he did not proactively provide information about anything we were seeing along the river. I think you could get a similar experience by directly approaching the dock and asking for a ride. Hotel pickup and drop off were smooth though.

I got sexual harrassment - I got sexual harassment from my guide. I was the only guest on the boat. He touched my hands without permission and said something sexual thing to test my limit. That was the grossest experience I ever had. He spent almost 70% of the tour time talking about his things instead of doing his guide job.
