About the dahabiya

Hadeel Dahabiya

A small alcohol-free sailing dahabiya with eight cabins for up to 16 guests. It suits families and small groups who want a quiet Nile trip without a bar on board.

The Hadeel is a small sailing dahabiya with eight cabins and room for up to 16 guests. Its defining policy is simple: no alcohol is sold on board. That makes it a natural choice for families, faith-based groups and anyone who prefers a dry boat. With so few guests, a group of friends or relatives can fill most of the deck. Life on board is quiet, built around the river rather than an evening program. If you want a cocktail at sunset or a bar in the evening, choose another boat.

Like other dahabiyas, the Hadeel sails slowly and can stop at riverbanks that large ships pass by. The sailing day, route and length are set per departure and given with the quote. Trips run between Luxor and Aswan, with Karnak at the Luxor end and Philae Temple at the Aswan end. Cabin sizes and bed layouts are not published, so ask about them before you book. A group of around 16 can ask about having the whole boat to themselves.
