The itinerary takes you to famous and lesser-known sites, including a luxurious Nile cruise. Accompanied by knowledgeable guides, you'll have all meals and entrance fees covered for a worry-free trip. It's an unforgettable experience that will leave you with a deep appreciation for Egypt's history and beauty. Our small boat could tie up to a tree, so shoreside exploration went beyond the river cruise norm, and with no printed itinerary, every day brought a sense of adventure. Crew leant a hand as we sometimes walked the plank or up dirt hillsides.
Day Luxury Small Boat Nile Cruise and Cairo Highlights Tour
The seven boats range from 16 to 24 passengers. Wi-Fi, meals, and shore excursions are all included; alcohol and tips for the crew are not (I spent about $140 on tips). Today you will enjoy a leisurely day of sailing to Aswan, Egypt’s most southern city.
Day MS Donia Dahabiya from Esna to Aswan
Of course, a very nice boat experience is one thing, but if you’ve come all the way to Egypt, you also expect to tour ancient historic sites and learn a thing or two. Nour El Nil’s contract Egyptologists deliver small-group tours with aplomb. For us English speakers, there was Adel Abu ElHagag, an expert on hieroglyphics who was determined to teach us to recognize the symbols for Cleopatra, among others.

Later in the evening, the boat will sail slowly towards Esna, where you will be spending the night on the water, in the blissful comfort of your cabin. A nice change of pace is the chance to stretch your legs and walk through a few small local villages throughout the cruise. There’s no tourist sights here but it gives you a true picture of life in the countryside where palm and mango trees thrive and there’s plenty to live off of thanks to the giver of life, the Nile.
Design Your Custom Egypt Tour
The whole experience was amazing and the crew was even better! It was a perfect mix of sightseeing tours, local culture with great people and relaxation while enjoying the scenery of the Nile. 5-star Mövenpick Prince Abbas is a 5-star cruise that offers you a comfortable home from which you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Nasser and see the magnificent temples and tombs of ancient Nubia.
We never had the impression that we were on our own. No time died was wasted, our time was carefully spent. Memphis Tours made our trip memorable in every way! We were met as we got off the plane and were waved off on our departure. The tranquility of the Dahabiya will let you relax and enjoy the calmness of the Nile.
Amoura Dahabiya
Check-in and enjoy your first onboard lunch. Embark on a visit to Luxor’s East Bank, exploring Luxor Temple and Karnak Temple. Return to the Dahabiya for relaxation and a delightful dinner. Spend the night in your cabin on the water at Luxor.
We definitely recommend this agency if you are looking to have a special trip or a celebration. Thanks for the wonderful service you gave us during our trip to Egypt - we had a wonderful time. Without a doubt, I'll reuse their services once more when I return. The Nile Cruise on the Historia was excellent. The staff and service was above and beyond.
All accommodations include private bathrooms and are designed for comfort with individual air-conditioning and heating controls. The heart of the Dahabiya is the half-shaded sun deck, furnished with chairs, a divan, sun beds, and dining tables – a perfect vantage point to observe daily life on the river and the passing landscape. Me and my husband chose the 10 days “Taste of Egypt and Jordan” tour for our anniversary.
Relax in plush surroundings and unwind in your private sanctuary, where modern amenities seamlessly blend with traditional Egyptian charm. Our dedicated staff is committed to ensuring your every need is met, providing impeccable service that exceeds your expectations. Unlike the hotel ships with indoor dining rooms, the deck was our dining space and lounge. This is where you catch views, feel occasional breezes (including from ceiling fans), admire the sails, spend time chatting or reading or playing games such as Scrabble and Hearts with your sail mates.
The room was spacious with a loveseat and chair, a king bed, and a very spacious bath. The ship was quiet and the views spectacular. I and my girlfriends went on this trip alone. Traveling with Memphis was very safe for us. Very detailed history got to most sites - weather was so great also our guides were great.

Highly recommend this cruise, we had an excellent time with our family over Christmas. My wife and I had the chance to take the 3-day Abu Simbel to Aswan cruise aboard Prince Abbas. We had a very special service by Memphis Tours, as well as with its guides, our tireless concierges were all extremely professionally competent and with great empathy. The hotels, and the transfer vehicles were always very clean and organized, exceeded expectations every day, not missing anything, not even water. We know that on any trip there are some setbacks, flight delays, a hotel room that doesn't suit us, or a problem at the reception, however, when they occurred, the Memphis team quickly resolved them. They made sure everything was to perfection.
Escape the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary on our luxury Dahabiya cruises. Allow us to create a journey of refined elegance, where every moment is filled with unforgettable experiences and cherished memories. Book your exclusive voyage today and embark on a truly exceptional adventure through the heart of Egypt, where luxury and history intertwine to create an unparalleled travel experience.
