About the dahabiya

Malouka Dahabiya

The Malouka is a dahabiya about 52 meters long with ten rooms: two suites and eight standard rooms. It suits couples and small groups who want a quiet, slow trip on the Nile.

The Malouka is a traditional Nile sailing boat about 52 meters long. She carries only ten rooms, two suites and eight standard rooms, so the deck is shared by a small group. Pick a suite for more space, or a standard room if you would rather spend on the trip itself. A dahabiya moves slowly, and her days are shaped by the wind and the river. She can tie up at quiet banks that large ships pass by. Few details are published for this boat, including build year, capacity, facilities and cabin sizes. She suits travelers who want calm more than a long list of amenities.

The sailing day is set per departure and given with the quote, together with the route, the number of nights and the meal plan. Ask for the cabin plan before you choose between a suite and a standard room. With only ten rooms, a group of friends can fill much of the boat, so a larger party should ask early about taking several rooms together.
