    The Experience

    The Oberoi Zahra is a boutique luxury ship with only 25 cabins and suites, each with timber floors and panoramic windows over the Nile. Service is personal and unhurried, in the way the Oberoi name is known for. On board you will find four therapy rooms with private showers and steam, a fitness center, an open-air pool with Jacuzzi, a library and cigar lounge, and a restaurant with menus that change through the journey. Sail for 3, 4 or 7 nights. The longer journey adds Dendera, the Valley of the Nobles and a sound and light show at Philae.

    What Our Guests Say

    Voices From the Journey

    Real stories from travelers who trusted us with their journey through Egypt.

    "I'll be honest I almost canceled this trip after reading so many conflicting opinions online. From my very first email, Hamdy patiently answered every question without ever making me feel pressured to book. When we landed in Cairo, Magdy was already waiting outside arrivals, and within an hour I realized I'd spent weeks worrying for nothing. Looking back, what I'll remember most isn't just the pyramids, but how easy the entire journey felt."
