My family and I visited Egypt last December. We sailed on the Glory of Nubia during 3 days from Asswan to Kom Ombo. That was the highlight of our trip. It's an adventure that we highly recommend. Compared to the other feluccas that we passed by, the Glory of Nubia was THE boat that everyone stared at. Plus the food,... More

Wow what a felucca . It is very difficult to add more comments about this Felucca you really have to experience it yourself. From the luxury, cold drinks on arrival. The cup of tea in the fine china with cake. Dinner on the roof top. The staff with happy smiling faces. We only did 2 day trips I could only... More

I did many felucca trips on the Glory of Nubia. It's one of the best feluccas I've ever seen in Upper Egypt.

It was like a dream and a one thousand and one night adventure. The crew was GREAT. We got like a big one family. We sailed close to the banks, met people,... More

Glory of Nubia was an amazing way to spend a day on the Nile. Laying on plush pillows while sailing around the Nile was surreal. Getting on the boat was sort of like stepping into an Arabian nights setting. Definitely a major step up from the typical felucca tours that we saw. We spent the day on the felucca, rode... More
