A sailing experience on a traditional Felucca is a must-do if you spend any time near the Nile in Aswan. This tour combines this with an authentic dinner on Heissa Island.

Your pick-up will meet you at your hotel or Nile cruise ship in the afternoon, and drive you to the Nile dock to take the motorboats bringing you to Heissa Nile Island, located in a unique place between the Aswan High Dam, built in 1960, and the Old Dam, built in 1902. In Heissa Island you will get on board the felucca for an hour sailing to enjoy the amazing sunset on the Nile, and the fascinating nature around. Back to the Island, you will have time to relax on comfortable local sofas, and enjoy discussions with Nubian people until dinner is ready.

You will taste an authentic, delicious dinner. There is also the possibility for an oriental show, subject to the number of participants on the Island. After an unforgettable experience, the transfer will take you back to your hotel or Nile cruise ship.
