Pickup for the cruise takes place on Monday between 10:00-11:00, then transfer you to Esna(1 Hrs. Driving) Where our Dahabiya Nile Cruise dock from your Luxor hotel (not the airport). We highly recommend that you arrive by Sunday night, as Monday morning flights can be delayed and risk you missing the pickup in Luxor.

Yes, we are happy to organize a privatization a Dahabiya for you. We can get you very special rates for privatizations. Please e-mail us for inquiries regarding privatizations.

Yes, we will have a guide present with you at all major sites that we visit along the Nile. Your tour guide will stay with you on board on a separate cabin during the Nile Cruise trip, so, you can ask him about anything at any time and you can discuss any topic you prefer.

Yes, WiFi is available at on both the cruise and at the guesthouse. While we discourage guests from using WiFi too frequently, as we’d prefer you enjoy the beautiful Nile, internet is available for those who need to use it. The WiFi signal is not always available, and is subject to the connectivity available throughout the Nile, therefore you should not rely on it to be working 100% of the time (if you require it for urgent work matters or other reasons).

Our standard trips last 4 nights/5 days. We are able to shorten or lengthen the trip only in the instance of a privatization (charter), in which case we can customize the trip according to your schedule and desires.

All rooms are based on double-occupancy. It is our policy that no more than two people be allowed per room, except in rare instances of young children. If you have special circumstances, please let us know and we will address your case on an individual basis

Yes, we allow and welcome children aboard the cruise. We have found that children, old and young, thoroughly enjoy the cruise and excursions. That being said, please understand that the dahabiya provides an intimate atmosphere and therefore it is important that your children are well-behaved.

Absolutely not! Unlike the sea, the Nile is completely calm and experiences no waves or abrupt movements, therefore you can feel completely confident that being on the river will not adversely affect you. We have never had a single guest complain of being “seasick” on the Nile.

We are very willing and able to accommodate special dietary requirements. For example, if you are vegetarian or pescatarian, we will include plenty of vegetables and/or fish at each meal. If you have any food allergies, please be sure to alert us as soon as possible so we can ensure that we properly accommodate these concerns.

You can swim in the Nile without any problems or cause for concern. The currents ensure that you are swimming in clean, non-stagnant water. We’ve had everyone from children to the elderly take a dip in the Nile with us and no one has become sick as a result. Of course, one should always be aware of the risk involved in swimming in any body of water.
