Gorgonia Exclusive Boutique Dahabiya Nile Cruise (5 Days)
Journey Overview
Gorgonia Dahabiya Information
| Twin Single Bed Cabin |
| Queen Bed Suite |
| Gorgonia on the Nile |
Gorgonia Dahabiya is the characteristic river-going sailboats of Egypt: these boats have sailed the Nile for a lot of decades. They were used in Egypt during the period of the monarchy (1920-1940) when aristocrats and sophisticated travellers loved to cruise the Nile in this style. Travelling with these boats permitted one to enjoy the Egyptian landscape with its monuments and villages, leisurely from the riverbanks.
We are glad to let you re-experience these sophisticated days of the past with all comfort, we wish to offer. Our boat is equipped with 8 deluxe cabins completely furnished with private services, air conditioning and single beds “that can be joined”. It has also 4 premium King suites with all the comforts. Our Dahabiya allows you to experience the charm of the Nile in an intimate, privileged setting.
Make yourself at home in one of the 12 air-conditioned rooms featuring minibars and flat-screen televisions. Private bathrooms with showers feature complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Conveniences include safes and desks, as well as phones with free local calls.
