Throw back the curtains of your cabin windows to find the powerful waters of the Nile shimmering, right in front of you. Your accommodation whilst sailing this historic river is extremely comfortable.
Each cabin and suite is well-equipped with all the modern conveniences you might need and has been designed with clean lines, a natural colour palette and Egyptian art adorning the walls. A 24 hour butler service is on hand, should you need anything during your cruise.
When it comes to dining, you can enjoy meals both indoors or out at the poolside restaurant.

Talented Oberoi chefs use fresh ingredients to prepare a variety of cuisines in the main restaurant where large windows ensure you can enjoy river views whilst dining.
Lighter meals are served at the undercover poolside restaurant on the sundeck. Shaded by a large canopy, by day you’ll have panoramic views over the Nile and by night, the river transforms into a dark, sparkling blanket laid out before you.
Several areas on board are available for you to unwind and rejuvenate - you’re on holiday after all! The Philae’s spa offers a variety of relaxing treatments, the perfect treat after spending the day exploring ancient temples and tombs.
Up on the sundeck, there’s a temperature controlled pool where you can take a swim or rest on the sun loungers with a cool cocktail. There’s also a well-equipped fitness centre on board, complete with vast windows and river views.
