Designed in the style of a traditional dahabiya, the vessel combines the romance of classic Nile sailing with refined modern comfort. Its elegant décor evokes the glamour of the 1920s, featuring bespoke teak and rattan furnishings, brass beds draped with vintage Suzani textiles, Egyptian cotton linens, handcrafted tiles and marble details. Large windows frame the ever-changing river scenery, while inviting lounges and open decks provide peaceful spaces to relax between visits.
