Our first hotel ship was begun
in 1990 and completed by 1991. Weighing 600 tons, the cruise
is approximately 72 m long by 13.5 meters wide and 11.4
meters (4 decks) high, the draught (depth under the
waterline) of only 1.38 meters. It includes 75 deluxe cabins
including 4 suites (on the top two decks) and a number of
triple
cabins.
Our basic rooms are famous on
the Nile for being the most spacious, approximately 20meters
square, and for the our fully equipped bathrooms which
includes a bathtub, a hairdryer, and a shaving socket
(110/220 volts). A large, specially designed, panoramic
window allows our guests to view the Nile
while lying on their beds. All our rooms are fitted with
20-inch televisions, mini-bars, climate-control and
telephones that allow you to phone or fax anywhere
around the world via our two dedicated GSM lines. |
| The ship has
four main decks and a 900 meters square sundeck, as seen on
the map. The spacious main restaurant is located on deck C
and provides our guests with three gourmets Movenpick meals
a day. Snacks and drinks are available around the pool and
the bar on the Sundeck (not shown in map) and barbecues are
sometimes held, weather permitting. Music and events are
held in the lounge/disco, located on deck D, and it offers
our guests an alternative place to relax and have a cool
drink. |
Our cruises are
also famous for our water system. Unlike other cruises, our
boilers and water tanks are designed to make sure that our
clients will always have hot and cold water regardless of
how many people are on board. Our purification system is the
best on the Nile, taking in water from the river and passing
it through two sand f ilters,
two carbon filters, an ultra-violet filter, and a
microbiology filter to give you pure, clean water.
The trip includes a visit to
all the main sites from Luxor to Aswan with an
English-speaking guide. However, alternative languages,
private guides, transfers to and from the airport and/or
extra sightseeing can be arranged on request. |
