Journey Overview

A five-day boutique sailing journey designed around privacy, scenery and the quieter side of the Nile. The itinerary combines Luxor’s monumental heritage with the smaller temples and riverside landscapes that are best experienced from a Dahabiya.

Embark on an unforgettable voyage through the heart of Ancient Egypt aboard the elegant Mazaj SEBA Dahabiya , where timeless landscapes, extraordinary temples, and personalized luxury come together to create an authentic Nile experience unlike any other.

Beginning in Luxor, the legendary City of a Hundred Gates, you’ll explore magnificent temples and royal tombs before boarding your boutique sailing vessel. Over the next five days, the gentle winds of the Nile carry you south toward Aswan, following a route once traveled by pharaohs, merchants, and explorers.
