Living in Luxor - Dahabiya Nile Cruises: Sandal Dalida
Authentic dahabiyas (from the Arabic word for the "golden one") were and are built from wood and have no motors. They have to be light to be able to sail. The elegant timber construction of a dahabiya or an even smaller sandal limits the number of passengers which makes that kind of travelling relatively expensive but it guarantees unique and unforgettable holiday experiences: The dahabiya glides silently along the banks of the River Nile, the water sloshes softly at the bow, you can see rare birds, listen to the sounds of the nature, open yourself to the passing scenery, and meet people who live from and with the Nile while you enjoy a family environment and excellent food aboard. What else could be more restful?
Dates of departure:
- any time
- full charter only
Sandal Dalida with 3 cabins:

Travel Programme:
During the day ...
You will alternate between navigation and walks on the banks of the River Nile. You will see typical coloured villages and have the opportunity to visit ancient Egyptian sites. As you chartered the whole boat, you can make the schedule on your own, or you follow our suggestion:
- Day 1:
Transfer from Luxor to Esna, boarding
Visit of the Temple of Esna - Day 2:
Visit of the rock-cut tombs in Elkab
- Day 3
Visit of the Temple in Edfu - Day 4
Visit of the Chapel of Horemheb in Gebel el-Silsila - Day 5

After breakfast end of the cruise, transfer to Aswan downtown
Edfu Temple
During the night ...
the Sandal won't sail. It will anchor on the banks of Nile islands, where you will have your dinner off the beaten tourist track.
Note:
Because the Sandal sails without a motor, it is accompanied by a tug boat which pulls it in case of wind lack.

- Full board with the best typical food including soft drinks
Rates:

Our Service in Luxor:
We will pick you up at the airport in Luxor and transfer you to your booked dahabiya in Luxor or Esna. After your Nile cruise, we bring you back to Luxor - unless you decided to stay in Aswan or to visit the Temple in Abu Simbel, which we also organise for you with pleasure.
