Upgrade Option for Rooms Aboard the Dahabiya Boat on the Nile Cruise:

We will be sailing in dahabiyas for four nights on the Nile River. A dahabiya is a semi-luxury small vessel Egyptian sailboat that has been modernized to provide a comfortable and private cruising experience. Dahabiyas can accommodate between 12 to 28 members. Each cabin has a private bathroom, air conditioning, and beds. Dahabiyas are accompanied by a tugboat, which provides additional power and stability during the journey. The tugboat ensures smooth and safe navigation along the Nile River, especially during periods of weak winds.

Dahabiya standard cabins contain two single twin beds. There are a limited number of suites on each Dahabiya with a king or queen bed and either panoramic windows or step out balconies. Upgrades to your cabin on the boat are available by selecting the option below:

  • Upgrade from a standard cabin for four nights with twin beds to a larger suite with a queen or king bed and panoramic windows for an additional $1500 per cabin (2 suites available)
  • Upgrade from a standard cabin for four nights with twin beds to a larger suite with a queen or king bed and step out balcony for an additional $2,000 per cabin (3 suites available)

Additional Optional Activities Paid Locally

The following additions can be purchased during the trip and must be paid in cash only (U.S. dollars or Egyptian pounds). It is helpful to reserve these activities now, but you do not need to pay for them during registration. We will collect your cash payment for these additional options while on the tour.

Check all that are of interest:

Entry is through a passageway that can be narrow and requires crouching or bending to navigate at times. Part of the passageway also includes a steep incline. Air inside the pyramid can be warm and humid.
Some may need to crouch slightly in certain sections.
A hot air balloon ride in the early morning is a breathtaking way to see Luxor. Enjoy the world’s largest open-air museum from the sky as the rising sun hits the temples and lights up the green Nile banks. Early pick up (3:30-4:30 a.m) from your hotel will take you to the balloon to cruise the Egypt sky for 45-60 minutes. While professional cameras are prohibited on the ride, you may take pictures with your phone.
