The Zahra and the Philae — the top of the river
Oberoi Nile Cruise
Typical visit: 6 h
Oberoi run two boats on the Nile, the Zahra and the Philae, and they are the most expensive way to make this trip.
View on Google MapsAbout
Two vessels, both small by Nile standards, both at the luxury end of the river by some distance. The Zahra sails a seven-night round trip from Luxor; the Philae runs shorter legs.
Worth naming separately because a guest asking for an Oberoi is not comparing it with anything else on this list.
