A lovely short boat tour of the Nile through Cairo - I liked that we had the option to go by motor or sail felucca. We chose motor felucca because we could see more of Cairo because the motor boats could go under the low bridges. The guide was funny and pointed out many interesting sites.

Amazing, soothing, comfortable - They were amazing people, very helpful. They made sure I felt comfortable as I was by myself. The boat tour was amazing the route they take you on is beautiful. They were very patient as I botched the pick up location several times and they allowed me to change it. They were very punctual coming 10 minutes early They offer both pickup and drop off.

The local tour operators are class - We unfortunately had to cancel our boat ride due to extreme heat that day, but I am leaving a review to commend the tour operator company's professionalism and flexibility. Despite Viator having a no refund policy, we were assisted by the local tour company and given a refund. I will be contacting this company for all my tour needs during my next visit.

Felucca not to be missed! - Felucca ride with guide Omar Saeed, the most beautiful experience in Egypt. The guide is competent and friendly and left us with an excellent memory of this day.

Amazing felucca tour - Omar Saeed and his driver accompanied us on this wonderful felucca tour on the Nile. In addition to the beautiful ride, a plus point is Omar and the driver, two exceptional people. Highly recommended

Tour guide likes to hustle - Friendly guide. A bit too familiar though. Shouldn’t be asking for great reviews and also changing the plan with a different boat s d journey.

OK - The Felucca ride is ok. The guide really does not know much, though she is very nice and friendly. Felucca ride in Aswan is much more impressive.
