What better way to see the long-told-of sights and scenery along the Nile than by riverboat? No, we can't think of one! Across its three storeys, the Sanctuary provides well-appointed sun decks to do your ogling whilst catching some rays, or enjoying an afternoon tea on the way to your next historic stop. Once you leave the comfort of the air-conditioned cabins, you'll be led from ancient temples to larger-than-life statues by the in-house Egyptologist. Choose between the four-night cruise from Luxor to Aswan (or vice versa) or the eight-night round trip. Blending modern Egypt with millenia of tradition, the decor is plush and stylish.




Styled in the Sanctuary's quintessential blue, there are 32 cabins and suites with textiles and furnishings that blend East and West. Each room has a view of the Nile as you glide across the water, and the bathrooms are well-appointed and neat. The suites have a large sitting area dotted with ornate, gold lamps and the Presidential Suites feature a private balcony and king-sized bed suspended on a platform with delicate (but sturdy!) cables. Other amenities include a mini bar and TV.
Waking up to spectacular vistas that change every morning, signalling a new day of discovery.
There are a couple of special evenings including the 'Egyptian Night' where you'll dress in traditional galabeyas, and the farewell dinner, which is a white-glove gala, finished with a traditional Dervish performance.
You'll see a few extras on the eight-night cruise, but it's more about added leisure.
