Pleasure barges have always featured prominently in Egypt’s history. Cleopatra and Julius Caesar spent nine months sailing around Egypt. Ottoman officials insisted on the grandeur of the Dahabiya Cruise for their journeys. European visitors from the 1860s onwards preferred to hire a Dahabiya at Cairo for a luxury Nile Cruise at a civilized pace. Now you too can explore Egypt inelegance. The name Dahabiya is Arabic for “golden boat” after the gilded railings and fittings that adorned these magnificent pleasure craft. Modern replicas of these classically elegant vessels use the traditional configuration of two lateen sails to assist propulsion, so speed of travel along the Nile River is slower, more relaxed and more contemplative giving you more time to take in the sights as they gently glide by and really appreciate your surroundings.
