Built in colonial style, this traditional two-masted vessel offers an intimate and luxurious way to explore the Nile. The heart of the boat is its half-shaded sundeck, where you can relax on wooden deck chairs and soak in breathtaking views of Egypt’s timeless landscapes.
The Sacred Lotus Dahabiya features eight spacious double cabins and two suites, each designed with antique furnishings and fine Egyptian cotton linens. Every cabin (3.5 x 3.5 meters) includes large windows for panoramic views of ancient temples, riverside villages, and the Nile’s serene beauty. The air-conditioned cabins also feature en-suite bathrooms with bathtubs, showers, and tiled floors. For an extra touch of luxury, the two terrace suites offer a private balcony perfect for enjoying sunset views over the Nile. The suite includes a large antique double bed, regional décor, and a lavish bathroom.
The cozy salon, with its small library of books on Egypt and the Nile, is ideal for relaxing with a Turkish coffee or a glass of Alexandrian wine. Share travel stories, play backgammon, or simply unwind in this charming space.
This cruise offers a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. Unlike large cruise ships, the Sacred Lotus Dahabiya provides an exclusive, personalized experience. Enjoy freshly prepared meals, daily linen changes, and attentive service while sailing past iconic landmarks.

The 4 Days Sacred Lotus Dahabiya offers a perfect retreat on the Nile. The boat’s colonial style was very charming, and I loved the atmosphere it created—luxurious but also deeply connected to Egypt’s rich history. The sundeck was the highlight for me, a place to unwind and enjoy the serene view of the Nile. The boat’s design is thoughtful, and the small touches, like the library, made the trip even more enjoyable. A truly unique way to experience Egypt.
