Overview

Dahabiya Nile cruise

A Dahabiya Nile cruise is a unique and luxurious way to experience the Nile River. Dahabiyas are traditional Egyptian sailing boats that have been converted into luxury cruise ships. They are typically smaller and more intimate than other types of Nile cruise ships, with a more relaxed atmosphere.

Your Dahabiya Nile cruise will include six days and five nights of full-board accommodation. You will enjoy delicious Egyptian cuisine, prepared by your onboard chef. You will also have the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities, such as swimming, sunbathing, and exploring the villages and temples along the Nile River.
