Nebyt Dahabiya Nile Cruise
Overview
Golden Lady of the Nile—that's what people end up calling Nebyt Dahabiya, and a day or two on board makes it obvious why. We didn't set out to build another floating hotel. What we wanted was something for people who actually want to unplug, properly, for a few days. This isn't really a typical Nile cruise. There are visits to ancient sites along the way, but the pace is set by rest, not by a checklist.
