About the dahabiya

Princess Farida Dahabiya

The Princess Farida is a luxury dahabiya with eight suites, including two royal suites of about 35 square meters, on full board. It suits couples and small private groups who want a quiet trip.

The Princess Farida is a small private sailing boat with eight suites and no standard cabins. Six luxury suites measure about 22 square meters, and two royal suites about 35. With so few rooms, the deck and the dining table are shared by a small group. Meals are full board, with breakfast, lunch and dinner on board. The pace is slow, and she can stop at riverbanks that large ships pass by. A dahabiya has far fewer facilities than a cruise ship, with no big pool and no nightlife.

The Princess Farida leaves Luxor on a three-night trip and leaves Aswan on a four-night trip, on dates set by season. The exact stops are set per departure, shaped by the wind and the river. Book a royal suite if you want the most room, as there are only two. With eight suites in all, a family or group of friends can take over most of the boat, so ask early if you want it to yourselves.
