Sailing the Nile in the beautiful Dahabeya Samarah

A completely different experience from the usual cruise ships and the best way to travel peacefully on the magical Nile river.

SAMARAH, Started out in October 2010, with care and love for details, it is an excellent choice for a calm relaxing vacation, a romantic getaway with your loved one, or a business meeting celebration, ensuring you a relaxing trip away from the busy life.

On board SAMARAH you will be traveling at a slow pace, no rush there. You will stop where the big boats cannot dock, you will visit the sites during the least crowded hours. The cruise includes all the services and sophistication worthy of a first-class luxury boat.
