Mido was a fantastic tour guide, very invested in ensuring we had a great time. Mido is a great photographer, he took us great pictures during the breath taking Cairo sunset.

We had an unforgettable romantic dinner cruise, and our experience was nothing short of amazing! Mido took excellent care of us throughout the evening, making sure we felt welcomed and comfortable. The atmosphere was perfect, with the gentle breeze and stunning views adding to the magic of the night. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the entire experience was beyond our expectations.

We just finished our sunset felucca tour. Mido was our guide. He and Adam, the owner of the company, spoke excellent English and were a pleasure to deal with - they responded very quickly via WhatsApp.
Mido loves his job, he is very enthusiastic, knowledgeably, and fun to be around.
The felucca tour was on the water for over an hour, and we could have extended it even more. Mido surprised us with a complimentary rose petal decorated table on the felucca. We selected the food in advance - it tasted good an was waiting on the felucca for us. Egyptian desserts were included, and so were different drinks.
The felucca tour is a romantic tour and not a sightseeing tour - the boat will crisscross the Nile River and only go maybe a quarter mile away from the anchor place. IThe felucca is not motorized and thus totally dependent on the wind. We were lucky and had wind that was strong enough to allow the felucca to maneuver easily, but not strong enough to blow the food or rose petals away.
Once the felucca leaves it's anchor place, the traffic noise and the constant honking goes away and it gets quiet, romantic, and relaxing. Mido played and excellent selection of jazz, and older music, incl. from Frank Sinatra and made this sunset trip very special.
During the trip, Mido took lots of excellent photos of us with our cameras.
Long story short: we totally recommend this trip.

The views were fantastic at the 4-6 PM time was perfect for sunset views. The young fella Hazim on the boat was very friendly and entertaining. Mido our driver to and fro to the ride went above and beyond and used his car and money to retrieve my lost phone from someone that had held it ransom after I left it in a previous ride share. They were honest, upstanding and extremely helpful. They are 10 stars out of a 5 star rating

Very suggestive experience. The felucca is a typical Egyptian boat. Mohamed kasban together with his crew Hazem and Shaban made the experience perfect, making us laugh and dance. The menu can be chosen in advance, also highlighting particular allergies. Very large boat, there were 4 of us but up to 10 people fit perfectly. Highly recommended for a different experience away from city traffic!

The drive was amazing and very comfortable. We went with Mido, who drove us and also came with us on the boat.
He arrived on time, even after short notice and was in fast communication with us on WhatsApp the entire time.
Throughout the drive he explained the places we passed to us and also told us what we could expect.
When we arrived at the boat, we met El Coptan and Waled. We were offered refreshments, hot and cold and had lots of photos taken by Mido at sunset, while eating and also throughout (200 photos), which he then sent to us via AirDrop. Absolutely wonderful snaps!!👌🏽💯
Dinner was delicious and even better than we had imagined. Egyptian Kofta and grilled chicken with the most tasty rice. There was hummus, bread and little salad bowls (cucumber, tomato and onions). ABSOLUTELY MWAH😙! It was followed by chocolate cake 🍰🍫. YUM! Totally loved the experience and would recommend anyone while in Egypt this felucca trip (especially at 6-8pm🤫🤫).

Mido picked us up from our hotel, he was incredibly friendly and welcoming and pointed out sights to see on the drive to the boat. There we met his colleagues who looked after us, with Egyptian tea and drinks and the food was amazing. We had good sailing conditions and sailed up the nile, it’s very peaceful and the perfect end to the day. Little tip - check when the sun sets at the time of year you go as it was beautiful watching it go down. I couldn’t recommend this company and Mido enough.

We had the pleasure to take this cruise with Mido for my birthday. From the time he picked us up he was so engaging and made sure we enjoyed ourselves. For my birthday he added so many little extra touches that made this experience wonderful!! He met and exceeded my expectations! If you get the chance this private cruise is a must!

We were lucky enough to take part in the Luxury Felucca Tour on the Nile and it was just breathtaking! Our guide 'Ahmed Khairy' was absolutely professional and took care of every detail. He made sure we felt comfortable and relaxed at all times. His knowledge of the area and culture was impressive, and he explained everything to us with a lot of patience and passion.
A special highlight were the fantastic photos he took of us. As a professional photographer, he knew exactly how to capture the best moments and the beautiful panorama of the Nile. We have unforgettable pictures that will always remind us of this great tour.
The Felucca itself was incredibly comfortable, and it was a pleasure to glide so relaxed across the Nile. The views of the surrounding countryside and the calm of the water were just magical. Lunch on board was also excellent – fresh, delicious and served in a dreamlike setting.
I can highly recommend this tour! It was a perfect mix of relaxation, culture and nature, all accompanied by a great guide who really made for an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

From getting picked up in a much nicer car than I expected until then end, our host Mohamed Kasbah was nothing short of exceptional.
We chose the sunset ride and it really didn't disappoint. Mohamed was on hand to take the most amazing photos too.
The food was actually better than we expected.in fact, it was very tasty and very well served by his colleague Yousef who was very polite.
The trip was completely unhurried, the views were spectacular, and the length of time was just spot on .
The boat itself was perfect. Open air, very tastefully (and romantically) decorated much to the joy of the wife.
I cannot sing enough praise. Mohamed was knowledgeable, funny, polite, and very attentive from beginning to end. In fact t, so much so, that we booked another excursion with him for the next day.
Thank you so much for a memorable experience!
