Dahabiya translated means Golden Boat in Egyptian. They were originally used by kings to travel on the Nile, and are beautifully crafted twin masted sailing ships. The five stars Dahabiya aims to give guests a more than luxurious stay. It is 36m long and has 4 en-suite cabins, a very large Suite complete with its own terrace. There is also a spacious salon lounge with bar and a 24m sundeck. A visit to Selsila temple can be achieved only with our dahabiyas.
Unlike the cruise ships, our Dahabyeas can berth at any suitable place on the banks of the Nile. This allows for a more flexible itinerary and a more enjoyable exploration of the river.
Dahabiya has many transcriptions some write it as dahabeah or dahabiah or dahabiyah or Dahabiya or Dahabeya and Dahabia but at the end they are all referring to the small boat that is sailing in the River Nile, going by the wind only ! imitating Kings and Queens from the past, we are here to let you feel as you are one of them
