A seven night dahabiya Nile cruise aboard the stylish Sonesta Amirat will enable you to discover the beauty of Upper Egypt and the magic of its ancient monuments at a pace that is refreshingly old fashioned. One of the Nile’s elite dahabiyas, the elegant Amirat has just five ensuite guest cabins and two suites (each with a terrace) and offers seven night cruises between Luxor and Aswan (and vice versa). The design of the Amirat dahabiya Nile cruise ensures that guests won’t have to forgo their modern creature comforts while at the same time paying homage to the stylish vessels on which pashas and Grand Tourists used to ply the Nile in the 19th century. The beautiful polished wooden sun-deck is the focal point of life aboard and is complete with comfortable sofas, a Jacuzzi and cotton awnings. Below deck all areas are air-conditioned and you’ll find a dining room, small library, and the guest accommodation. The Amirat provides a resident Egyptologist for your (shared) sightseeing. It’s impressive crew to guest ratio ensures a warm and highly personalised service at all times. Guests booking the Amirat dahabiya Nile cruise holiday can also look forward to a VIP meet and greet service on arrival in Egypt, private transfers, privately guided sightseeing in Cairo and domestic flights in Business Class.
