Welcome to the best fishing destination for big Nile Perch in Africa. Besides fishing, this paradise of beautiful desert landscapes and fresh Nile water is a fantastic place to spend some time, enjoy the remoteness and the real tranquillity.
If you’re looking to cut yourself off from the world and the daily stress for a while, then Lake Nasser will give you what you are looking for. The enormous size of the lake and its endless shore line made us develop a fishing trip with mobile floating accommodations and a food and beverage facility. This is why it’s called a fishing safari. It allows us to move day by day further into the remote areas of the biggest dammed lake in Africa.
A fishing safari trip on Lake Nasser is unique in the world. Try it out; it’s a life time experience! We offer 3 different fishing safari categories. You have the choice between our basic but very efficient fishing boats and more luxurious fishing safaris with fast centre console boats and a luxury mother ship with private cabins.
This is the most common way of fishing on Lake Nasser. This safari concept is ideal for 1-3 anglers who wish to have their privacy and take a fully equipped 9m fishing boat for themselves.
It allows you to be on your own with your guide and your private cook for as long as you wish on the lake. It has full autonomy because it doesn’t depend on a supply or mother ship and doesn’t follow a fixed fishing itinerary. This option is also suited for single fishermen.
For private group from 6 - 10 anglers: we will provide a large mother ship with sufficient sanitary and food & beverage facilities. During the day you will fish on our traditional steel boats and your own fishing guide. Accommodation is on traditional steel boats. Each boat has comfortable on-board sleeping facilities with three bunks, each with full-size single mattress. This area also provides eating space and daytime resting.
At night the cabin can be closed by canvas, providing a cosy sheltered sleeping area. Each boat cabin has a 12V lighting system. These boats provide sheltered rear fishing seats with rod holders and equipment storage. Each boat has an echo sounder, weighing bag and scale, gaff and is suited for all fishing techniques.

This safari option has revolutionised fishing on Lake Nasser offering centre console fast boats with 85 & 115 HP for fishing and a spacious mother ship for accommodation and meals. Group of 4 - 8 anglers.
This is unique on Lake Nasser and there are an increasing number of fishermen who are ready to pay the extra to facilitate a great difference in the fishing experience. We can also provide a fast boat for a group of 2 anglers. In this case your mother ship will be a smaller boat. The advantages of our fast boats are: more comfort, longer fishing time, faster move from one fishing spot to the other. You will cover more fishing spots in the same time and there’s better reach of remote fishing spots and great drift casting on sunken islands or rock tips. These boats are also more suitable for new fishing techniques like jigging with live/dead baits and soft lures.

1,470€, £1,200 with 2 anglers per boat.
Extra day 200€, £165 per angler.
