Overview

Discover Egypt in a different manner on an exclusive journey combining luxury and history. You'll begin your adventure at the sumptuous Winter Palace Luxor—made famous by Agatha Christie and Howard Carter—a veritable castle tucked in between Egyptian treasures. Then follow the winds on an unforgettable cruise to discover the Nile on board an elegant dahabeah—a 19th-century sailboat where each element of decor has been chosen with care from around the world. Our attentive crew will welcome you before you settle into your tastefully outfitted, but practical, cabin. Admire the scenery as you relax under the unfurled sails topside. The cradle of all civilizations—ancient Egypt—has fascinated humankind forever. From the beginning of time, adventurers, diplomats, writers, and painters have all drawn inspiration from the fertile banks of the Nile. From Luxor to Aswan, the Nile snakes its way through valleys lined with majestic temples, necropolises, pyramids, and lively villages. Your vacation will wrap in style at the luxurious Old Cataract Aswan, where colonial elegance rubs shoulders with the magic of the Nile. An unforgettable experience is on the horizon!
