Begin your adventure with a scenic sail on a traditional felucca to Kitchener Island. From your vantage point on the boat, admire the stunning Agha Khan Mausoleum perched atop a hill, offering magnificent views of the Aswan area.

After your exploration, return to your felucca for a relaxing sail back to Aswan's East Bank, guided by the expertise of your local captain as you ride the gentle currents of the Nile.
