Embark on a romantic cruise down the River Nile aboard the Fl�neuse du Nil dahabiya and visit its ancient wonders in an authentic and luxurious setting. Dahabiyas are the traditional sailing vessels used since the times of the Pharaohs to reach the most distant corners of the empire, by river and canal. Flanked by two lateen sails, this boat takes on the gentle rhythm of the river where the breeze often goes against the currents, and can access tranquil banks that larger boats cannot. You will enjoy visiting the sites durin off-peak hours, sharing meals around a wood fire on the lush green banks of the Nile, the Fl�neuse du Nil offers the undeniable charm of your home away from home, your home on the water.

The chef provides the finest Egyptian cuisine adapted to sensitive stomachs and children. You will not want to miss his delicious concoctions with hibiscus flowers, the famous ?carcadet?, to be sipped slowly on the deck, nose to the wind... The crew consists of eight men dressed in the traditional ?galabiya?, navigating in the ancient fashion. For cruising, just two concessions have been made to ?modernity?: a tug-boat in the event of a calm and an electric generator. For safety reasons, the dahabieh is not accessible to children under 7 years old.
