The Oberoi Philae, Luxury Nile Cruiser

The Oberoi Group · Sailing between Luxor and Aswan

The larger of Oberoi's two Nile vessels, the Philae carries 22 cabins and suites across a colonial-styled ship with a spa, an in-house cinema and a sun-deck pool, sailing four- and six-night itineraries along the same temple-rich corridor between Luxor and Aswan. Like its sister ship it secures private moorings and provides a dedicated guide and driver, delivering Oberoi service at a slightly more accessible scale.

Why we recommend it

A first-class cruise alternative to the Zahra for those who want Oberoi standards with a little more onboard space and a broader range of sailing dates.
