What other say about the Dahabiya:
<,...
Just a quick e mail to thank you and your staff for a great trip.
Your people were always early, polite and very helpful.
Our guide Emed was very good and put all his fascinating information
over at just the right level.
The only minor thing that went wrong was my wife's name on the internal
flight tickets. Your agents said it would not be a problem and they
made sure we were safely checked in. All was fine but we English worry.
The Dongola was amazing. So was Mr Mohamed, I am sure you know what
I mean !!!!!
We were treated like royalty. Our final night to say the least was very
memorable with the whole crew singing traditional songs for us to dance
to.
We will defiantly be back to Egypt some time in the future, at the very
least to see Cairo.
If you ever need a recommendation to a client I would be happy to give
one.
Regards
Mr. & Mrs. B. Eele - UK >> Winter 2007

be expected - that 's at your discretion) . After the ceremony, Champagnes
will be served to the new couple & guests.
Complimentary transfers in an air-conditioned sedan , are included between the hotel & the church , if you prefer a stretch limo is available upon request supplement will apply.
Our Nile cruise passengers come from all countries of the world, more from Europe, but also from North America, South America and Asia, and naturally they'll often keep the company of their own language and culture.
Your
patience and extra efforts to interact are sure to bear rewards.
Some guests from the USA did bring up the issue that in some cases the
boat did have 2 or 3 English speaking couples onboard, and that they
expected more !
Most sailings have a few native English speakers, though the numbers,
of course, vary by season, and are not guaranteed.

'Wie Hercule Poirot auf dem Nil'
...' Die schoene alte Zeit kehrt wieder'...'Erstmals seit Jahrzehnten verkehrt zwischen Assuan
und Luxor wieder eine vornehme Dhahabiyya'...
...'Abseits der Touristenstroeme liegt am Westufer des Nils nun wieder eine Dhahabiyya - abgeschieden
und im Stil des ausgehenden 19. Jahrhunderts. In einer Mischung aus der "Belle Epoque" Aegyptens
und
eines vornehmen englischen Clubs.
Kein Zufall ist es daher, dass das Unternehmen, das die Dhahabiyyas
auf dem See hinter dem Staudamm
betreibt, sich den namen "Belle Epoque Travel" gegeben hat'...
...'Platz bietet das Deck fuer zwoelf Personen, und sie schlafen in den sechs stilvollen Kabinen darunter.
Jede ist nach einem beruehmten Aegypter benannt: eine nach Nagib Machfus, eine andere nach Omar Sharif. So,
wie jede Kabine einen anderen Namen traegt, hat jede einen eigenen Stil. Alle Moebel aber, auch das Schiff selbst, orientieren sich eng an historischen Vorbildern'...
...'Nun sind die Dahabiyyas auf dem Nil zurueck. Die ersten beiden fahren zwischen Luxor und
Assuan - jeweils sieben Tage. Ein Auto faehrt die Strecke in drei Stunden, ein Kreuzfahrtschiff in einem Tag'...
...'haben die Urlauber nun wieder eine andere Moeglichkeit. Die Dhahabiyyas nehmen auf dem Nil
Kurs gegen den Massentourismus. Mit ihnen kehrt die Intimitaet des fruehen Reisens zurueck.
Und auch die Freude, auf dem grossen Strom zu fahren. Die kleinen Dhahabiyyas umschiffen die grossen Touristenstroeme. Das hektische Tempo der Moderne wird gedrosselt, und der Reisende findet zur Ruhe,
zu sich selbst. Vor allem entdeckt er Aegypten wieder vom Nil aus'.
