Oberoi Philae Cruise
$21,500
About this trip
Step aboard the Oberoi Philae, a lovingly restored steamer that recalls the golden age of Nile travel. Just twenty-two cabins and suites — each with a private balcony — mean an intimate, unhurried journey between Luxor and Aswan.
A dedicated butler looks after every guest, cuisine is served à la carte, and evenings unfold on the sun deck beneath the stars. Every excursion is guided by a private Egyptologist, and all entrance fees are included.
Highlights
- Private Balcony Suites
