A New Era of Nile Cruising: Mövenpick Introduces the SB Hayah Dahabiya

Cruising over the Nile feels surreal and even more fascinating when you are on a personalized dahabiya and witnessing the everlasting beauty of the Nile riverbanks. So, to complement these experiences, the major cruise line Mövenpick has launched its new sailing vessel, the renowned SB Hayah Dahabiya.  

It is a modern-day small boat cruise inspired by the traditional 19th-century dahabiya, which only carries around 8-20 guests and serves the passengers’ ultimate luxurious experiences. The cruise is a prominent boat that is specially booked for private cruising experiences and offers completely flexible itineraries. One can book the book and can enjoy the sailing. 

The cruise consists of 8 luxury suites, each with large panoramic windows that make it a perfect boutique floating hotel. As you embark on the Nile journey with the SB Hayah Dahabiya, you will be greeted by the staff onboard, and it starts with breathtaking views from the deck. Passengers who have experienced the exquisite services of the Dahabiya have stated that every moment on-board was unforgettable, and personalized itineraries have let them explore Egypt in one of the most unique ways.

To book the SB Hayah Dahabiya, you need to request the cruise first on the official booking partners, like Nile cruisen, which offer easy booking services for the SB Hayah Dahabiya. You need to fill in the important details on a booking form, and then further processing will be carried out by their booking representative. 

What kind of itineraries does SB Hayah Dahabiya provide? 

It is a private dahabiya that offers personalized itineraries for individuals booking small boat cruises. From an ideal 5 days and 4 nights from Aswan to longer journeys from Cairo to Aswan, other options are also available. 

It includes detailed itineraries for the exploration of historical landmarks situated on the riverbanks of the Nile, from the Karnak temple complex to ancient archaeological sites like Abydos located around Cairo. An SB Hayah cruise will sail through the Nile, offering unmatched luxurious experiences.

Why is the SB Hayah Dahabiya famous? 

The itineraries of the SB Hayah Dahabiya are much vaster than the rest of the cruises; it offers sailing to the hidden gems of Egypt near the Nile Riverbanks that are mostly left ignored by the large ships.  

The 7-8 day itinerary on the SB Hayah Dahabiya between Aswan and Luxor includes a visit to places like El Kab, where the tombs of Ahmose, son of Ibana, and Paheri are situated. They offer a completely different exploration compared to the Valley of the Kings. It is a low-traffic tourist site; on the tombs, carvings related to the daily life of Egyptians are depicted. This site is usually visited only on personalized cruises with a customized itinerary that was delivered by the SB Hayah Dahabiya in Egypt. 

Another reason that makes the cruise famous is its sailing from Gebel el-Silsila and Esna, where guests get to explore the history and culture unconventionally. It is a blend of historical exploration and luxury sailing, all under an itinerary.
