Dalida Dahabiya Nile Cruise in Egypt

Dalida Dahabiya Nile Cruise is a traditional Dahabiya style Nile cruise experience that lets travelers explore the ancient wonders of Egypt from the serene waters of the Nile River. This classic form of cruising uses a beautifully crafted sailing boat — a Dahabiya — that moves gently with the wind and offers a more intimate and peaceful alternative to larger cruise ships. Guests can enjoy the view of lush riverbanks, small villages, and historic landscapes as they travel between Luxor and Aswan aboard this elegant vessel. 

On the Dalida Dahabiya Nile Cruise, travelers typically embark on a multi-day journey that combines sightseeing with relaxation. The cruise generally sails between Luxor and Aswan, stopping at iconic archaeological sites such as the temples of Karnak and Luxor, among others, allowing passengers to explore ancient Egyptian history firsthand with guided excursions. 

Accommodation on the Dalida Dahabiya Nile Cruise is aboard a 5-star full-board Dahabiya boat, where guests enjoy comfortable cabins, delicious meals included in the fare, and personalized service from the crew. This type of cruise emphasizes a laid-back atmosphere, blending cultural discovery with scenic sailing, making it a memorable way to experience the timeless beauty of the Nile and Upper Egypt’s heritage.
