Introduction

 

A replica of an Edwardian paddle steamer, the Oberoi Philae Nile Cruise is amongst the best boats on the Nile, offering very high standards of service, accommodation and facilities.

 

Nile Cruises are the ideal way to see the fascinating sights of the Nile in the comfort of one of our luxury Nile Cruisers all accompanied by an expert Egyptologist.

 

Please note that, due to sailing times, holidays using our chartered Luxor flight cannot be booked on The Oberoi Philae. We can tailormake an itinerary for you including The Oberoi Philae - or see our popular Oberoi Experience multi-centre itinerary.

 

Please note that this cruise boat will be out of operation for renovation from 31 May 2011 until late 2012 (re-opening date to be confirmed).
