From Cairo to Cairo
Discover the wonders of ancient Egypt on board AmaDahlia, sailing exclusively on the Nile River for immersive and enriching exploration.
AmaDahlia has just 36 staterooms and suites, most with private
balcony, plus onboard amenities including two dining venues, a sun
deck bar, swimming pool, fitness centre, hair and nail salon, and
two massage rooms.
We love this noisy, dusty, busy city. Expect a warm welcome everywhere you go - Egypt goes through hard times so often that its tourism industry suffers a constant roller-coaster ride of highs and lows. More or less everyone has a financial interest in ensuring tourists continue to visit, and the country, and Cairo itself, really has so much to offer. The highlight of your stay may well be the Pyramids and Sphinx at Giza, but don't neglect a visit to the Egyptian Museum, which has a truly stupendous collection of ancient artefacts, including the Tutankhamen treasures.
Prepare to be amazed – the thin belt of greenery along the banks of the Nile in Upper Egypt gives Luxor a lush setting for an extraordinary collection of tombs, temple complexes and stone structures that hint at the magnificence of this former Ancient Egyptian capital.
Egypt's southernmost city, Aswan, is where the Nile is at its most majestic. Many monuments and sites are within easy reach, such as the temple of Philae and the Aga Khan Mausoleum. The souk is the perfect place to shop for gifts to take home, but also to learn more about the people who shop here daily.
