Boat trip.
The booking process is a bit misleading and not clear with the itinerary saying one thing and and ended up with another. Communication was good once booked with Viator and they provided the meeting point and contact name and number for the boat. However more confusion as he was not at the boat, and lots of people keen to offer the trip. Once we were sure on the correct boat the trip was good.
Response from the operator: Me to thank you for your time and consideration. We are more than proud and happy to hear that you have enjoyed every aspect of your tour and we will continue working hard to maintain the same level of progress. our biggest inspiration is your satisfaction. we are looking forward to welcoming you again in the near future to try more of our tours. Sincerely, Best regards : Etro Tours

Beauty of Luxor from the Nile. This was truly a heart warming joyful evening.
We had such an awesome time. From the moment we came to the dock we were greeted by the team. The sailboat is absolutely beautiful. The adventure on the river was breathtaking. To watch the sunset on the Nile with this team was phenomenal. They took care of us with such kind genuine hospitality. Showing us their sailing skills the led by a great Captain with his younger Brother and little cousin helping him out. Pure professionals on the water. The lunch was served with water and soft drinks which followed with tea and snacks. The surprise was the jr sailors bringing out the drums and tambourine. We were singing and dancing to the sunset. What a blessed and treasured memory to have in my life. I can never forget this. Thank you

Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Luxor.
How much does Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private) cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Luxor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private) take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Luxor is not rushed.
Is Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Luxor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private)?
+
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 Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private)?
+
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 Luxor 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 Luxor and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sunset sailing by Felucca in Luxor -2 Hours (Private) 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 Luxor 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 Luxor?
+
On Outty we rank every Luxor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private Half Day Luxor Tour Valley of Kings & Queens, Hatshepsut, Full Day Tour to East and West Banks of Luxor (Private), Private Half day Tour to West bank. 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 Luxor?
+
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 Luxor?
+
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.
