Ferry
From Luxor East Bank, head to the ferry terminal located near the Luxor Temple. Purchase a ticket for the ferry that crosses the Nile River to the West Bank. Once you arrive on the West Bank, walk towards Garden Street. You can ask the locals for directions to El Ramla; it’s a well-known area. The Nile River Dahabiyas is located on Garden Street, just a short walk from the ferry landing.
Walking
If you are staying in a hotel on the West Bank, ask for directions to Garden Street in El Ramla. Walk along the main road until you reach the intersection with Garden Street. Turn onto Garden Street and continue walking straight until you see the sign for Nile River Dahabiyas. It should be easily identifiable along the street.
