Dahabiya Cruise

Dahabiya Cruise WHAT IS DAHABIYA? The Dhabiya was built approximately in 1835. It was used by Egypt’s former royal families and later on by celebrities of the 1950’s era for pleasure trips. As they were painted in gold the Dongola and similar boats were called ‘Dahabiya’ which means ‘Golden Boat’. Sailing on a Dahabiya ensures exploring the Nile in a traditional style while being able to enjoy visits to some unique places and monuments that cannot be reached by large cruise ships. Other memorable experiences are the BBQ on isolated islands or joining the ‘Chef’ for greengrocery shopping in rural markets and villages. Along the way, we moor on uninhabited Nile islands, where the virgin landscapes have hardly changed through the millennia. Wandering through the gardens and Nile islands is an idyllic pastime, and the perfect complement to your visits to Egypt’s matchless monuments. The Dahabiyas are beautifully crafted wooden ships, outfitted in colonial style with oriental and Egyptian touches. The interiors boast period furnishing, and each cabin has its own distinct style and interior EMBARKATION EVERY SATURDAY FROM ESNA TO ASWAN Dahabiya Cruise can be use in any GMTours programs instead of our Nile cruise

Even if you haven’t heard Mokhtar’s name, you’ve probably seen his works. They are among Cairo’s best known landmarks, including the statue of Saad Zaghloul on its lotus-shaped podium. MOHAMED NAGUI MUSUEM: After lunch, we will drive to the Mohamed Nagui museum. Nagui (1888-1956) belongs to the same generation as Mokhtar and is also considered one of the pioneers of modern art in Egypt. The Nagui Museum used to be the artist’s studio and remains one of the city’s most pleasant surprises for art aficionados. After graduating in Lyon, France, Nagui opted to move to Florence, where he became the first Egyptian to study at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts. In addition to a sixyear stint in Florence starting in 1919, Nagui studied briefly in the atelier of the great impressionist, Claude Monet. Back to our hotel for overnight stay at Cairo.
