One of the highlights of any visit to Aswan is a Felucca ride on the Nile River. These traditional Egyptian sailing boats silently criss cross the Nile all day long, with their tall white sails perfectly designed for catching the breeze.
Your felucca ride to Kitchener Island takes around 20 minutes, depending on wind speed and Nile currents, and on arrival your guide will accompany you to Aswan Botanic Gardens. Visit the small botanical museum before stroll through the tranquil gardens which are home to many exotic species of plants and trees imported from all around the world. The Aswan Botanic Gardens are a quiet and peaceful oasis from the hustle and bustle of everyday Egyptian life, and young couples and families from Aswan often spend their day enjoying the island.
