The Three Pyramids is a dahabiya built in 2019 in the style of the sailing boats of the 19th century: 40 metres long, three decks, six cabins and two suites, and never more than sixteen guests. She moves under her two lateen sails whenever the wind allows, with a tug only where the river needs it, and moors at islands and village landings that the cruise ships pass by.
Six panoramic cabins and two panoramic suites, all on the main deck. Every room has a private bathroom and air conditioning. The cabins sit at the waterline with a panoramic window, and the suites add a wider window and an oriental seating area.
Arranged on request and paid separately.
Prices on this boat are on request. Tell us your dates and we quote in US dollars, per person, for the whole cruise, not per night. A cabin sleeps two.
A 25 percent deposit confirms your booking. The balance is paid on arrival, by bank transfer or in cash. Cards are accepted, with a 3 percent surcharge.
A child travelling free shares the parents’ cabin and does not get a separate bed. Tell us the ages when you enquire and we will price it exactly.

If your plans change you can move your dates instead, free of charge more than 30 days before sailing and subject to availability. Peak travel periods can carry different terms, and your booking confirmation states which apply. If the trip cannot run for reasons beyond anyone’s control, such as a strike, an epidemic or a sudden change in the law, no cancellation fee applies.
Mooring points and the order of stops can change with the wind and the river; that is part of sailing. The sights of Aswan, such as Philae, are not part of this boat’s programme and can be added as optional tours.
