Luxury Dahabiya Charters in Egypt
Chartering a private dahabiya in Egypt offers the luxury of personalised itineraries, exclusive experiences, and a heightened level of privacy and comfort while exploring the Nile on your terms. These twin-masted sailing yachts, usually with four to eight cabins, were the preferred mode of Nile transport for the grand tourists of the 19th century. Today, their deluxe modern incarnations are an increasingly popular way to see the sites of Upper Egypt.
A singular attraction of a dahabiya cruise is that it allows you and a small group of fellow travellers to sail on the Nile at a leisurely pace, largely away from the hustle and bustle of modern touring. Your dahabiya will visit small islands, local villages, and Pharaonic sites often missed by the larger Nile cruises, enabling you to experience an Egypt that has long been removed from the tourist radar.
