A luxurious Dahabiya cruise that travels between Esna and Aswan is the Malouka. Spend your stay on board Malouka Dahbaiya Cruises admiring the Nile's grandeur and taking in the historic and well-known Egyptian wonders for the ideal escape and relaxation. Malouka, a 2008 construction, has ten spacious rooms that may hold up to 20 people. Prior to the 2017 debut of our newest and largest dahabiya, Meroe, Malouka served as our largest boat and gives plenty of space for anyone looking to cruise the Nile without being constrained by a smaller space.
Day 1 Monday: Esna Luxor
For a visit to Esna, which is around 33 miles south of Luxor, our Maestro Online Travel Guide will be waiting for you at the Luxor International Airport or Railway Station. You will board your Malouka Dahabiya here. The little Ancient Temple of Khnum in Esna, which is 10 meters below street level, is well recognized. Your tour will start with a brief stroll to the Temple and a leisurely stroll through the streets, which are adorned with exquisite fabrics and other exotic things.
Day 2 Tuesday: El Kab & Edfu Aswan
Start your journey toward El Kab, which is located on the east bank of the Nile. El Kab, which is now home to the Temple of Nekhbet and a succession of remarkable ornate tombs cut into the slope of the mountains, was formerly the capital of Upper Egypt and is known in Arabic as Al said. You will have a pleasant stroll through a little fishing village after you have docked to reach the necropolis. The boat will arrive in Edfu in the afternoon, and you can see the Horus-honoring Edfu Temple while there. You will be driven to the Temple by horse-drawn carriage through the congested city streets. You'll board the Dahabiya once more and head for a stunning island.
Day 3 Wednesday: Sail & Swim Aswan
After enjoying breakfast and an optional morning walk, you will set sail because today is all about the River. You'll make a stop at an island in the late afternoon where you can have a stroll or go swimming in the Nile. You might have the opportunity to take a trip into the desert as twilight falls down a valley dotted with boulders bearing prehistoric carvings and hieroglyphics from ancient Egypt. The fastest route through the desert to Libya begins with these photographs. The boat will anchor at the base of the illuminated Gebel Silsileh Temple at night.
Day 4 Thursday: Gebel Silsileh Aswan
The Nile is at its narrowest here when it passes between two mountain ranges. Due to the fact that the huge Nile cruise Dabaiya is not permitted to stop here, you will typically be the sole visitor to this wonderful location. You will stop at a scenic café to drink tea and shisha, commonly known as a water pipe, after visiting the tiny Temple of Horemheb and strolling through the sandstone quarries where the Ancient Egyptians extracted stone for many of their most well-known temples. After that, you'll sail to a charming riverbank where you'll stop for lunch and a swim.
Day 5 Friday: Kom Ombo Aswan
We have a morning voyage to the town and Temple of Kom Ombo after spending the night on the lake beneath the starry heavens. The Temple honors the Crocodile-headed God Sobek and was constructed during the Ptolemaic era. You will visit the brand-new Crocodile Museum, which has a large collection of mummified crocodiles, after admiring the temple.
Day 6 Saturday: Aswan
You will need to leave your Malouka Dahabiya after breakfast, and you will then be taken to Aswan Airport or the train station for your final departure.
