Further information
Activities may be subject to schedule adjustments
The dahabieh is equipped with a hybrid system of solar panels and batteries, making for a more eco-friendly voyage
Dahabiehs are traditional sailing boats that navigate primarily under sail. When wind conditions do not permit it, or on certain stretches of the Nile, the boat may be towed at a distance (approximately 30 m) by a small tugboat, as dahabiehs do not have engines
Optional services
Flights not included in the program are available on request
