Trip overview
Dahabiyas are traditional boats that depend on river currents and wind to navigate the Nile. All meals are prepared on board and served on deck under the canopy. With their characteristic interiors, these boats exude a spacious and bright atmosphere with great opportunities to admire the scenery of the Nile Valley from the comfortable deck. Notes: Honeymoon trips are usually private trying to maintain a certain privacy, something that the Dahabiya Nile cruise presents with better comfort. Dahabiya cruises have 2 programs: 4 days from Aswan to Luxor every Friday, and 5 days from Luxor to Aswan every Monday.
