Overview

Experience the epitome of luxury as you glide along the Nile aboard the Nebyt Dahabiya Boat, known as the Golden Lady of the Nile. Renowned as one of the most opulent Dahabiyas, the Nebyt Dahabiya Boat offers exquisitely adorned cabins and a shaded sun deck complete with a hot tub and chaise lounges. Journeying between the historic cities of Luxor and Aswan, you’ll encounter exclusive sites unreachable by traditional cruises, including the serene El Batekh Island and the captivating El Kab Temple and village.

Launched in November 2011, the Nebyt Dahabiya Boat boasts a devoted following, with its 43-meter length and 7-meter width accommodating six comfortable cabins with expansive panoramic windows, alongside a luxurious suite featuring its own terrace, minibar, and Jacuzzi whirlpool. Each cabin is equipped with modern amenities such as phone/TV, private safe, shower/toilet, hairdryer, bath shoes/bathing coat, and individually controlled air-conditioning units. The vessel also features a restaurant, bar, lounge with a TV corner, WLAN, and a spacious shaded sundeck with a Jacuzzi whirlpool and plush chaise lounges.

Step aboard the Nebyt, a nostalgic sailing vessel, and embark on a unique journey along the Nile. Witness the bustling activity of the river from the comfort of your floating sanctuary as the Dahabiya guides you through approximately 200 kilometers of serene waters. The familial atmosphere onboard ensures unforgettable holiday memories, enhanced by exceptional service. Moreover, the Dahabiya docks at locations inaccessible to larger cruises, granting you exclusive access to hidden gems along the Nile.

Sailboats were once a staple of Egyptian luxury travel during the early 20th century, favored by the royal family and elite travelers seeking to cruise the Nile in style. These vessels, equipped with four to ten cabins, bathrooms, and a retinue of servants, allowed guests to leisurely navigate from temple to temple, savoring the gentle river breeze. Today, Dahabiyas offer a similarly leisurely pace, allowing travelers to immerse themselves in the timeless allure of the Nile and its surrounding civilization.
