Egypt is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. The country is known as one of the oldest civilisations in the world and is home to the longest river in the world, River Nile. Since the ancient Egyptians believed that the Nile would carry them into the afterlife, almost all of the cultural and historical sites of Ancient Egypt lie along its banks.
Only a small section of the majestic River Nile, the longest river in the world, runs through Egypt; yet it is the most well known portion of the river due to the ancient temples and monuments that lie along its banks. According to ancient Egyptians, the eastern bank was perceived to be the place of birth and growth, and the west, the place of death.
The Oberoi Philae, a five-star Luxury Nile Cruiser is a perfect way to see the wonders of ancient Egypt unfold before your eyes. The luxury cruise ship takes you around magnificent temples and five thousand years of culture. For your on-board entertainment, the cruise also offers nightly traditional dance and music performances.
To ensure a truly memorable experience, the Oberoi Philae offers a limited number of luxury accommodations, all-day fine dining and personalised spa therapies. Coupled with a sincere, courteous attention to your every need for the best River Nile cruise experience.
Oberoi Philae Luxury Nile Cruise has specially curated four and six-day itineraries that allow you to experience the best of Egypt on board the spacious Luxury Nile Cruiser.
The cruiser has professional, on-board English speaking Egyptologists to help your journey become informative and enjoyable. Multilingual Egyptologists can also be arranged with prior notice.
At each stop, the Oberoi team organises small luxury coaches to transport you directly to the sights and major tourist attraction. Audio-visual presentations are available, should you desire additional information.
