Gorgeous sunset sail
I searched several tours and most (surprisingly) were not timed to be on the water at sunset, which was a requirement for us. This tour had a 4PM pickup, which was perfect. Still I wasn’t certain we would see the sunset so I contacted the guide in advance and asked if the sail could be extended if necessary to see the sunset. He was very accommodating and said they could extend for a small additional fee. As it turned out the 1-hour sail was all we needed and we saw one of the most gorgeous sunsets of our vacation. Our guide (I believe his name was Nemo) was very friendly and had great knowledge of the city and had many recommendations. He was also happy to take as many photos as we wished. Definitely a 5-star experience and a bucket list item when visiting Cairo.
Response from the operator: Thank you for submitting your superb review and positive feelings about Egypt and our devoted company mean so much to us and that is what we aim for. We look forward to having you here again to show you more amazing sights in Cairo,Luxor,Aswan, ALexandria Keep in touch The Temple Egypt Day Tours

Why this scores 60
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cairo.
How much does Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo cost?
+
Prices start at $10 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cairo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cairo is not rushed.
Is Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cairo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 2-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cairo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cairo and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Felucca Sailing Trip On The Nile In Cairo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cairo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Cairo?
+
On Outty we rank every Cairo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include All-in-One Giza Tour, inside Pyramid, sphinx, Camel ride & lunch, VIP Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx Tour –Inside the Pyramids&More, Best of Cairo Private Giza Pyramids, Sphinx and Grand Museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Cairo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cairo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
