Jet tours launches “Along the Water – Elegance on the Nile“, a new five-star luxury cruise in Egypt.
The tour operator has built its own dahabieh, the Lady Assiya, inaugurated in September 2026. With 12 cabins, this traditional sailing vessel focuses on an intimate experience, in the spirit of ‘slow travel’.
The cruise is offered on an all-inclusive basis, with a French-speaking Egyptologist guide.
The itinerary includes ten visits and calls, including the temples of Karnak, Luxor, Edfu, Kom Ombo and Philae, as well as the Valley of the Kings, the Colossi of Memnon and the Temple of Medinet Habu. The program also includes a visit to a papyrus factory and a stop on Al Ramady Island.
