Cruising at times becomes an expensive affair in Luxor and is not always possible for all pockets to afford it. But there is nothing to get morose. Luxor has the opportunity to entertain people of all strata. If not cruise go for an ecstatic felucca ride on Nile. Feel the mystery , the beauty, the charm and aura of Nile while taking a felucca ride in Luxor. Feluccas are regarded to be the most ancient means of transport in Egypt. The white little boats have a splendor of their own. Get up on one of it and then you can sense the real Nile. Feluccas have beautiful white sails and the bats run smoothly across Nile if the winds are in favour. View the Luxor temple and the town from the bosom of nile and appreciate the loveliness of the city. Most of the boats are run by the localites. Bargain for a trip for one or two hours. Prices are affordable and the best part of felucca trips are that you can sway the boat to any direction as you wish. Cruising ahs a particular direction of its own because the journeys are pre - scheduled. But felucca rides are free to take you anywhere. Enjoy the feel of being independent, self- driven and last of all be satisfied with your journey. Afternoons and evenings are perhaps the best time to take a felucca ride. Romantic people will just love to lay back and enjoy the scenery of the countryside coming by the way. Sailing on a river is quite thrilling as the boat at times get very slow due to the lack of wind. But shirk off any worries because the motor boats arealways ready to pull you onshore. Luckily if your trip concurs with the enigmatic sunset of Nile then be happy to know that you belong to the class of those handful people who are provided with the opportunity to witness such a blessed scene.
