Five Days of History, Hammams and Heavenly Views
Picture this — you’re fresh out of a steam room, wrapped in a robe, sipping Egyptian mint tea as you watch the sun set over Luxor. That was night three on the Oberoi Philae. Each day we toured somewhere jaw-dropping — tombs, temples, obelisks — and each evening we returned to a ship that somehow topped it all. And yes, the food deserves its own review. Just wow. 🛳️✨

When Ancient Egypt Meets Floating Five-Star Elegance
We did the Oberoi Philae cruise in March and it was flawless. The boat is basically a palace that floats. I adored the Philae Temple stop, especially because the cruise gives it plenty of time to enjoy. My husband was obsessed with the onboard library, and I couldn’t get enough of the daily fresh juices. Evenings were the best — live music, calm waters, and stargazing with a warm breeze

Temples, Treadmills and Tiramisu on the Nile
You know you’re on a luxury cruise when you can follow up a visit to the Temple of Horus with a treadmill run and then indulge in tiramisu that tastes like it came straight from Rome. That’s exactly what we did on the Oberoi Philae. I loved the balance — plenty of culture during the day, then back to the boat for relaxation and world-class food.

The Nile, the Temples, and the Best Sleep I’ve Ever Had
I’m not exaggerating when I say I slept like a baby on the Oberoi Philae. The beds were heavenly, the cabin was silent, and the view — oh lord, the view! We stopped at Karnak, Edfu, and the magical island temple of Philae. But my favorite part? Sitting on the upper deck in the evening with a drink in hand, listening to the water lap as the boat glided through history.

Philae Temple by Morning, Poolside Relaxation by Noon
Waking up with the Nile flowing past your window, hopping off the boat to see ancient temples, then back on board for chilled watermelon and a poolside nap — that’s how every day should be. The Oberoi Philae blends serious adventure with serious relaxation. The spa? Top notch. The service? I wanted to pack the staff up and bring them home with me. If you like luxury but want to actually learn something too, this cruise is where it’s at

From Luxor to Aswan in Unmatched Comfort and Class
We cruised from Luxor to Aswan in a blend of history and modern luxury that I still can’t believe. The Oberoi Philae had such warm, attentive staff — they remembered our names, coffee orders, even our temple trivia! One of my favorite stops was Kom Ombo. Our guide made it feel like we were stepping back into a 2,000-year-old world. Then we’d return for a soak in the pool or a deep tissue massage. Honestly, it was a dream vacation

Ancient History by Day, Floating Paradise by Night
Each day we set out exploring places I’ve only ever seen in documentaries. Temple of Horus? Check. Valley of the Kings? Oh yes. But the real secret of this trip is the serenity onboard the Oberoi Philae. After our excursions, we’d return to chilled towels, smiling faces, and a hot meal that was honestly better than anything I’ve had in Manhattan. The best part? Watching the sunset from the deck with nothing but the Nile and ancient cliffs on the horizon. Pure magic.

5 Days on the Nile with a Gym, Temple Tours and a Touch of Magic
We weren’t sure what to expect, but once we boarded the Oberoi Philae, we felt like royalty. Between the historic temple stops at Edfu and Philae and the perfectly timed luxury of an on-deck swimming pool, it felt like time travel with a butler. My wife loved the gym, I loved the cocktails — and we both adored our spacious cabin. The crew was beyond kind and attentive, which made the cruise feel more like home… if home was a five-star floating hotel.

Sailing the Nile in Style with Gourmet Dining and Spa Bliss
The Oberoi Philae Nile Cruise gave me five days of sheer indulgence. I’d read about Egyptian temples, but nothing prepared me for seeing them from a luxury boat with a fresh hibiscus juice in hand. Every corner of this cruise screams class — from the opulent rooms to the dreamy pool deck overlooking the Nile. What truly blew me away was the food. I’m talking five-star, gourmet-level cuisine morning, noon, and night. One day we explored Kom Ombo and the next we were unwinding with massages at the spa — because why not pamper yourself between visiting ancient wonders?
