Can we see crocodiles while sailing on a Nile cruise?

Answers:

  • No, you will not see the crocodiles in the Nile River on the famous Nile cruise between Luxor and Aswan. The construction of the High Dam in Aswan in 1960 AD created a material barrier preventing crocodiles from traveling north. As a result, Egypt's wild crocodiles are now almost completely confined to Lake Nasser, which is the vast water tank that was established south of the dam.

What’s the difference between a Nile cruise and a Dahabiya?

Answers:

  • When planning your Nile Cruise trip in Egypt, the choice between a Nile Cruise or a Dahabiya Boat determines your entire river experience. The decision is not related to the same boat as much as the philosophy of your journey; here are the main differences between the Nile cruise and the Dahabiya boat Nile Cruise: a comprehensive social tour The Nile Cruise works as a large floating hotel. These ships, which accommodate 80 to 150 guests, are equipped with the amenities found in other tourist resorts, such as swimming pools, restaurants, and nighttime entertainment. The journey is characterized by organization and effectiveness, with fixed paths designed to cover all the famous Egyptian monuments between Luxor and Aswan. This option is ideal for travelers who enjoy a vibrant social atmosphere and want a comprehensive and integrated tour of the most important archaeological sites. Dahabiya Nile cruise: an intimate and authentic cruise The Dahabiya boat provides a more intimate and exclusive experience. This traditional sail yacht operates without an engine and can accommodate 12 to 24 guests, ensuring an atmosphere of calm and tranquility. The true luxury lies in its flexibility. Its small size allows it to dock in isolated islands and visit less well-known archaeological sites that are difficult for larger ships to reach. It is the perfect choice for travelers who prefer calm and originality and a dedicated trip away from crowds. In short, the normal Nile Cruise is a wonderful floating hotel to explore the wonders of Egypt efficiently, while the Dahabiya Cruise offers an exclusive journey that makes you feel private, not crowded, more time for sailing in Egypt, and more meditation.
