FARAH NILE CRUISE

The Farah brings a light, fresh feel and all modern comforts to the timeless experience of cruising along the Nile. Its 60 contemporary cabins and two Royal Suites are positioned across the vessel's spacious, light-filled decks, and the polished sun deck is the perfect venue for cooling down in the swimming pool or sipping drinks while you take in the enchanting passing scenery.

The Farah offers plenty to do without setting foot off the boat. Join the executive chef for a fascinating cookery class and discover the secrets of Egyptian cuisine or dance the night away in the lively Lounge Bar. Make use of the location to do some stargazing using the sun deck’s telescope or indulge yourself in a visit to the steam and sauna rooms. The comprehensive touring itineraries offered by Farah, however, provide the most irresistible draw.

Discover the wonders of ancient Egypt alongside one of the boat’s knowledgeable Egyptologists. The Karnak and Philae Temples are not to be missed when exploring the Nile, though visits to lesser known gems such as the Abu Simbel Temples, strikingly carved into rock, and the Temple of Deir El-Bahri - built of limestone as opposed to traditional sandstone - are certainly worthy of a visit. A trip to one of the world’s largest embankment dams in Aswan as well as a Nubian village tour offer a fascinating alternative to the region’s myriad archaeological sites.
