Tour Details

In order to make the most of your travel plans in Egypt, you should consider a luxurious sailboat tour package that offers an exclusive Dahabiya experience. This is an exceptional adventure dedicated to blending Nile’s traditional sailing with contemporary lavishness as a way of exploring Egyptian wonders.

In Cairo, where you begin your adventure, you will find yourself entranced by the city’s long-standing history and dynamic culture. Visit the spectacular Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, browse through the wonders of ancient Egypt on display in the Egyptian Museum, or just lose yourself in time in enchanting Old Cairo.

From there, make your way to Luxor commonly known as “the largest open-air museum on earth.” Upon arrival here, get onto your sleek Dahabiya sailboat for a placid cruise across the River Nile. Some of the foremost archaeological sites in Egypt are found in Luxor such as the stupendous Valley of Kings, the magnificent Karnak Temple, and the grand Luxor Temple.

If you guys sail from Luxor towards Aswan, then Dahabiya will give you a very personal and calm experience compared to larger cruise ships. On the way, the impressive Edfu Temple which is devoted to the falcon god Horus as well as the serene Kom Ombo Temple known for having two gods i.e., crocodile god Sobek and falcon god Horus can be visited. Due to its smaller size, it allows for making special stops at lovely villages and lesser-known locations that depict the timeless landscapes of Egypt.

In Aswan, the journey goes on with the stunning Philae Temple worshipping goddess Isis and the famous Unfinished Obelisk among others. Take time to enjoy a quiet sail around the green islands of Aswan experiencing one of the most beautiful moments of Nile’s tranquility.
