Compare every Nile cruise ship and dahabiya between Aswan and Luxor — honest categories, real departure days, no online payment.
Full board, guided excursions and standard temple tickets are included on every cruise we quote. Minimum 3 nights.
Every ship on the Nile calls itself five stars. We grade by what matters: cabin size, guests on board, dining and the age of the boat.
Why we don't just say "5-star": on the Nile, a 1990s buffet boat and a recently rebuilt all-suite boat can carry the same star rating. Our categories use guest count, cabin size, renovation year and dining style, so what you compare is what you actually get on board.
Pick a route, then scroll the days or press play — the boat sails to each stop as you go. Every ship follows these temples; what changes is the direction, the pace and the departure day.
Same river, two very different holidays. Most of our conversations start right here.
Best for: first-timers, families, anyone who wants amenities and a predictable schedule.
Browse cruise shipsBest for: honeymoons, repeat visitors, photographers, anyone allergic to buffets.
