5.0 on Tripadvisor Licensed by the Ministry of Tourism and AntiquitiesMinistry licensed guides On the river since 2011 Luxor and Aswan, every week
The Swan is a dahabiya: a sailing boat with ten cabins and two suites, carrying twenty guests at most. It sails the same route as the cruise ships, between Luxor and Aswan, at a slower pace, and moors where the larger boats cannot.
Ten cabins of 24 m² and two suites of 28 m². Every one has river-facing windows and a private bathroom.
Arranged on request and paid separately.
Prices are quoted in US dollars, per person, for the whole cruise, not per night. A cabin sleeps two. Taxes are included in the figure shown.
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.
