Aswan | Nile River Sunset Sailing Experience

Overview

Experience one of the most relaxing and popular things to do in Aswan with VIPXplor: a private felucca ride on the Nile River.

Your journey begins with hotel pickup and transfer to the Nile dock. Board your traditional wooden felucca and sail smoothly along the Nile with no engine noise, only the natural wind.

During your sailing experience, pass by Elephantine Island and enjoy views of the famous Kitchener’s Botanical Garden filled with exotic plants and palm trees.

As the sun sets, the Nile transforms into golden reflections across the water, creating one of the best sunset views in Aswan. You will also see panoramic views of the Tombs of the Nobles from the river.

After your peaceful cruise, return to shore and transfer back to your hotel in Aswan.
