Route details

Your experience begins with pickup directly from your accommodation in Luxor followed by a short transfer to a peaceful riding area surrounded by palm trees and banana plantations near the Nile.

After meeting your horse and receiving a short briefing, you set off along quiet countryside trails that wind through lush vegetation and traditional farming areas. The ride follows scenic riverside paths where you can enjoy views of the Nile and observe local daily life away from the busy tourist areas. Along the way, there are opportunities to stop for professional photographs among the plantations and open landscapes.

As the ride continues into the late afternoon, you arrive at a cozy Nubian-style café located beside the river, where you can relax with a refreshing non-alcoholic drink while enjoying the calm atmosphere and sunset views.

After the break, you return to the stables or are transferred directly back to your accommodation.
