Hadeel Dahabiyya

The Hadeel is a vintage Nile dahabiyya boat, offering a combination of traditional style and modern luxury. Many Nile dahabiyyas have opted for contemporary chic that can be a little sanitized but the public areas on the Hadeel are a welcome contrast to this, with dark wood paneling and classic style furniture that aims to evoke a more colonial atmosphere.

With eight comfortable en suite cabins, there is a maximum group size of 16, meaning the wonderful sights around the Nile between Luxor and Aswan can be enjoyed with personalized levels of service and guiding. Itineraries visit all the usual Nile cruise highlights but there are additional visits to ruins on the island of El Kab and a temple at Gebel El Silsila, which are not included on other Nile programs. The Hadeel can also moor at small islands along the Nile for refreshments and relaxation, meaning the experience can offer a range of enjoyable extras to a typical Nile cruise.

Alcohol is not sold on board the dahabiyya. Instead, guests may bring their own alcohol aboard and service and ice will be provided free of charge.
