The Oberoi Philae Nile Cruise

The Oberoi Philae Nile cruise is the epitome of luxury on the Nile and our preferred choice if you want to discover Upper Egypt in unparalleled style and comfort. The Philae stands out from the crowd in so many ways ranging from its mouth-watering cuisine, exceptional service and attention to detail, to its on-board facilities. While aboard the Oberoi Philae Nile cruise you will be one of a select pampered few as accommodation is in only 22 spacious cabins and suites each of which benefit from butler service. Mooring is always at a private dock, and with departure dates that are a day later than the majority of cruises, you will be able to experience a leisurely cruise on an emptier Nile. The sites of Egypt are equal to the Philae in their magnificence; this 10 day/9 night journey starts in Cairo you will see the stunning pyramids of Giza, gaze on the enigmatic sphinx and marvel at the golden treasures held in the Egyptian Museum. Then, you'll fly south to Luxor and stay at the historic Winter Palace Hotel for a night before embarking on the Oberoi Philae – your home for the next four nights – and cruising through 5,000 years of Egyptian history. The Oberoi Philae Nile cruise holiday concludes in Aswan with two nights to relax amongst glorious surroundings at the historic Old Cataract Hotel where you will be able to enjoy what are arguably the finest Nile views in Egypt.
