Booking a Nile cruise would be the perfect idea for a first time visitor
to Egypt. You can always avail the services of airlines, but if you want to
relive the history, there is nothing better than sailing by river Nile,
remember, in the ancient days, river Nile was the only medium of transport from
one place to another. Cruising through
river Nile and visiting the sites of Egypt is a fascinating experience.
Nile cruises may vary in terms of days and hours; however a typical Nile
cruise would cover up to four to seven nights. Aswan and Luxor is the route for
shorter tour, if you want to go for a longer cruise, you may choose to travel
further north to Dendera
If you are looking to
spend a romantic time on the river, you may opt for small boats. Small boats in the Nile are exquisite and offer you all
the luxuries you can think of.
Here are some of the Small
boats in the Nile
1)
The
Royal Cleopatra - The Royal Cleopatra can be hired
on rent. It can accommodate 8 people. The vessel is smaller than other cruise
boats and hence can easily maneuver around.
2)
The Oberoi Philae Nile Cruiser
- This is a nice boat with 14 cabins, each of them have private balconies, from
where you may witness the beauty
of the river during night.
3)
Sun Boat III - Sun Boat III has 8
luxurious cabins and 2 suites. This boat is much smaller than other cruisers on
Nile, as a result you can
have a more intimate experience with your partner.
