A sailing excursion with a felucca and a visit to the Nubian village with a motorboat from Aswan is a popular tourist option for visitors to the area. The tour usually begins with a sail on a traditional felucca, a wooden sailing boat with one sail that has been used on the Nile for centuries. Riding a felucca is a quiet and relaxing way to see the Nile and its banks, with the option to stop at various sights along the way.

After riding the felucca, the tour continues with a visit to the Nubian village by motorboat. The Nubian Village is a small village located on the banks of the Nile River, inhabited by Nubians, an ethnic group with a rich cultural heritage and unique traditions. Visitors can explore the village on foot, enjoying the sights and sounds of everyday life, or take a boat ride along the Nile to see the village from a different perspective.
