DAHABEYA - Nile Cruise
- Description
-
A Dahabeya Nile Cruise offers a very different experience to enjoy the Nile without the usual crowds.
These elegantly crafted small boutique boats have many modern facilities whilst offering the chance to visit Egypt in a nostalgic way. Meaning “Golden Boat” a Dahabiya Cruise combines the opportunity to explore the history of Upper Egypt at slower pace with the peace and tranquillity of a Nile Cruise.
Imagine swimming in the Nile from secluded and safe Islands and then enjoying a private barbecue as well as exploring sites and attractions not accessible to larger cruise boats. A Dahabeya offers so much more than a normal Nile Cruise
Our Dahabeya Nile Cruises are four identical sister upscale luxurious boats consisting of 2 decks with a total of 8 cabins. On the upper split level is the sun deck and lounge area. The Sun deck has a Jacuzzi that offers either hot or cold water with loungers and chairs arrayed around with water mist sprays from giant fans.
The covered lounge area with its own bar offers a very relaxing location to enjoy a drink with a combination of modern sofas and chairs and separate Arabic seating.
On the lower deck the large restaurant/lounge has seating for up to 20 guests for meals in an Egyptian atmosphere with wooden interior decoration and dimmed lights where top quality Egyptian and international cuisines are served. With separate sofas and chairs you can relax after meals with a card game or to relive the days activities.
