Sail the nile like royalty

TO SAIL THE NILE IS TO SAIL THROUGH HISTORY

To make the trip you could, of course, choose one of the ordinary cruise boats or even a newly built version of a traditional small boat the Egyptians call “dahabeya”  (The Golden boat ). Or you can make the trip extraordinary and truly historic by sailing with us on one of the two original dahabeyas which have the richest histories of any ship sailing the Nile today.
