Though both employees were very kind, this activity was not satisfactory. It was certainly not as expected. It did not include any information about the tour, there were no snacks, and for much of the tour we just sat floating. Though it was not their fault that it was not windy enough to sail, the experience on the motor boat was quite disappointing.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear that the experience did not meet your expectations.
We’re pleased to know that you found both of our employees very kind and helpful. Regarding the sailing conditions, unfortunately, the lack of wind was something completely beyond our control. Our team did inform you that there was not enough wind to sail, and you were given the option to continue using the motorboat instead, which you chose.
We completely understand that this may have changed the experience you were expecting, and we’re sorry that the motorboat option did not provide the enjoyable experience you had hoped for.
We also appreciate your comments regarding the tour information and snacks. We will take this feedback seriously and review these aspects with our team to improve the experience for future guests.
Thank you again for your understanding and for helping us improve our service. 🙏

We’re truly happy you enjoyed the relaxing Nile sailing and felt the warmth and experience of our crew. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we’d be delighted to welcome you again for another unforgettable journey on the Nile. Safe travels and best wishes!
Really good experience, very relaxing the guys on the Felouca understood that we wanted just to enjoy the sunset and the amazing Nile views so they were very quiet respecting our time.

Thank you very much for your lovely review! 🌅
We’re delighted to know you had such a relaxing felucca experience and that our crew respected your wish to simply enjoy the sunset and the beautiful Nile views. Your comfort and moments like these mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you again soon with Egypt Private Trips
The worst experience, the booking was with pick up and return from the hôtel to the boat but instead we walked for 20min in a very bad area. When we arrived to the boat we cancel the ride
Response from Host, Oct 2025
According to local government regulations, the riverbank area near Luxor Temple and the Corniche occasionally restricts vehicle access for environmental and security reasons. This is outside the operator’s control. Nonetheless, Egypt Private Trips has implemented new arrangements to ensure hotel pick-up directly connects to the boat area without walking.
Our commitment remains to provide safe, comfortable, and enjoyable Nile sailing experiences for all our guests.
Very pleasant experience, the communication was extremely smooth, and our driver picked us up at the hotel and at the end of the activity without any wait.
The cruise is very relaxing, and the attendants are lovely and very discreet.
I recommend it!

Ce fut un vrai plaisir de vous accueillir, et nous espérons avoir la chance de vous revoir bientôt à Louxor pour une nouvelle expérience inoubliable avec Egypt Private Trips 🌅🇪🇬
Very good experience, we were super well accompanied from the hotel to the felucca. Once on board we were greeted by two very helpful younger brothers, they provided us with a fruit platter and even made us Egyptian tea.

Merci beaucoup pour votre gentil commentaire ! Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez passé une très belle expérience du début à la fin.
Nous sommes heureux de savoir que l’accompagnement depuis l’hôtel ainsi que l’accueil à bord de la felouque ont été à la hauteur de vos attentes. Nos deux jeunes membres d’équipage seront également très contents d’apprendre que leur service, le plateau de fruits et le thé égyptien ont contribué à rendre votre moment encore plus agréable.
Au plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau très bientôt pour une autre belle expérience en Égypte
It has been a highly recommended experience. Super friendly staff and offer you water and tea during the walk.
