Sailing on the Nile in a felucca was a serene escape, with the gentle breeze and beautiful views of Aswan’s landscape enhancing the experience. The Nubian village visit was a highlight, offering a glimpse into their vibrant culture and a delicious traditional dinner that left a lasting impression. My only suggestion would be for a bit more time to explore the village, as I felt there was so much more to discover.

We had a fantastic time exploring the village and taking a felucca ride, which gave us a unique view of the surroundings. The traditional dinner was a delightful experience, although the transportation to the village could be improved for a smoother journey.
