Once you board the boat, you can sit back and relax while taking in the stunning views of the Nile and observing the daily life of Egyptians. As you sail, you will pass by the sugar cane fields that are a major crop in Luxor.
Once you arrive at Banana Island, your felucca captain will guide you on a walk around the island, where you will see an abundance of banana, mango, and guava trees.

After your walk, you can indulge in a delectable meal at the island restaurant and enjoy a sweet banana for dessert.
As the sun sets, you'll sail back to the Nile side while enjoying a cup of special hot Egyptian tea. Once you reach the shore, we will transfer you back to your hotel.
