5 Days luxury Dahabiya Cruise from Luxor to Aswan
A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.

Overview
This experience explores Upper Egypt aboard a Dahabiya, an elegant, storied Egyptian sailboat on the River Nile. You will learn about the boat’s history as you travel, enjoying the gentle rhythm of sailing with the wind and sun. Along the way you will pass villages, islands and ancient temples between Luxor and Aswan, which give a clear sense of the region’s landscape and heritage. During stops and getaways you will discover rural and traditional Egypt in small villages, gardens and markets. As you move through these local places you will see everyday life, traditional crafts and riverside scenes that contrast with the major archaeological sites. The mix of on-deck sailing and short visits ashore will give a balanced view of both the Nile’s natural beauty and the cultural character of Upper Egypt.
