Highlights

Picture yourself drifting along the legendary Nile, surrounded by palm-lined shores, ancient temples, and golden-hued sunsets. Welcome to the Merit Dahabiyas Nile Cruise, where tradition meets comfort on a voyage designed for those seeking a more personal, serene, and authentic Egyptian experience. The Merit Dahabiyas are beautifully crafted traditional sailboats—elegant, quiet, and rich in character. Without the hum of motors, the boat is gently guided by a tugboat, allowing you to soak in the peaceful rhythms of the river. Unlike larger vessels, the Dahabiyas can access hidden gems like Al Ramady Island and Hor Diab Island, where you can swim in crystal-clear waters and explore secluded landscapes untouched by mass tourism.

About Luxor

Luxor stands on the site of ancient Thebes, with vast temples on the Nile's east bank and the royal tombs of the Valley of the Kings across the river.

On the east bank, the Karnak temple complex spreads across acres of pylons, obelisks and the forest of columns in its Great Hypostyle Hall. An avenue of sphinxes links it to Luxor Temple in the town centre, which is especially atmospheric when lit up in the evening. The Luxor Museum and the Mummification Museum sit along the riverside corniche.

Top-ranked sights in Luxor: Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut (at Deir el-Bahari), Colossi of Memnon.
