Amoura Dahabiya offers a rare combination of luxury, history, and tranquility. The two-masted sailing vessel is not only beautiful but incredibly relaxing. I spent most of my time on the sun deck, gazing at the vast Nile River and surrounding landscapes. Below deck, the living area and library were wonderful spots to unwind. It was a perfect escape from the modern world, with a touch of elegance and history woven through every detail. Simply unforgettable.

We were fortunate to experience Amoura Dahabiya, and it exceeded all expectations. The sundeck is an ideal spot to take in the stunning views of the Nile. The ship has a lovely balance between the old colonial-style charm and modern conveniences. The salon is cozy and offers a great selection of books about Egypt and the Nile. There’s something magical about reading or sipping wine while floating along one of the world’s most iconic rivers. A peaceful, relaxing journey!

Sailing on Amoura Dahabiya was like traveling through a living museum. The lack of an engine made the journey so peaceful, allowing us to truly connect with the river and the landscapes. The salon was a cozy haven, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring temples. I even tried Turkish coffee for the first time—it was the perfect companion to an evening of storytelling. Every moment felt carefully crafted, from the food to the ambiance. A truly one-of-a-kind experience that I’ll never forget.

There’s something magical about cruising on a Dahabiya. Unlike the massive cruise ships, Amoura Dahabiya offers an intimate and exclusive experience. The attention to detail was impeccable—from the finely crafted woodwork to the carefully curated library filled with books on Egypt. One morning, I woke up to the sight of a golden sunrise over the Nile, with the sound of birds echoing in the distance. It was like a scene from a movie. If you’re looking for a journey that feels both luxurious and historic, this is it! ✨🚢

This was the best mix of adventure and relaxation I could have hoped for! Amoura Dahabiya gave me a taste of old-world charm with modern-day comfort. The wooden deck chairs were the perfect spot to soak up the golden Egyptian sun, and the salon had just the right ambiance for unwinding with a book. One of the highlights? Playing backgammon in the evening while enjoying a glass of wine. The slow-paced journey allowed us to truly take in the beauty of the Nile—no rushing, just pure serenity

Amoura Dahabiya is not just a boat; it’s a floating piece of history. The interiors transported me to a bygone era, with wooden finishes, antique-style furniture, and an intimate salon that felt like an old explorer’s lounge. Evenings were magical—sipping Alexandrian wine while sharing stories under the stars. The crew was exceptional, ensuring every detail was perfect. Unlike large cruises, this experience was intimate, quiet, and deeply personal. Imagine drifting along the Nile, passing ancient temples while feeling like an 18th-century traveler. Simply unforgettable!

Sailing on Amoura Dahabiya felt like stepping back in time while enjoying modern luxury. The sundeck was my favorite spot—watching the Nile unfold before me with a cup of Turkish coffee in hand was pure bliss. The cabins had a cozy colonial charm, and the salon was a wonderful retreat for reading about ancient Egypt. Nothing beats gliding past temples and palm groves without the hum of an engine—just the gentle sound of water and the occasional call of a heron. If you want to experience Egypt at a slower, more enchanting pace, this is the way to do it! ☀️⛵
