The Asiya is a dahabeya, a classic river-yacht that glides between Luxor and Aswan, exclusive to our group of 8-16 travelers (average of 13). Because of its small size, you’ll get to know your fellow travelers and the crew in an intimate setting, creating a family-like atmosphere throughout your voyage. Enjoy dedicated attention from 15 friendly crew members; relax with friends old and new in the salon & bar, in the library, or on the Sun Deck; and cruise to each new destination in comfort. Wireless internet is available in select common areas.
Please note: O.A.T. uses three different dahabeyas in Egypt, depending on the trip departure date. This deck plan is typical, but ships may vary slightly in size, cabin configurations, and facilities. Elevator service is not available between the Upper and Lower decks.
