-
Afandina
tour is
limited to
just 16
passengers
or fewer as
this is the
capacity of
the
Afandina.
This luxury
Dahabiya is
probably the
finest on
the river
with five
star service
throughout,
very
comfortable
cabins and a
better than
1:1 staff
ratio! There
is a sense
of space and
calm on
board and it
truly is a
wonderful
way to enjoy
the timeless
scenery of
the Nile.
-
The journey
for eight of
the nights
will be on
the Nile on
a private 5
star
Dahabiya,
the
Afandina, a
replica of
the ancient
sailing
vessels,
whose
amenities
include a
personal
chef and a
generous,
hospitable
crew that
can satisfy
our every
travel need.
-
The rooms
have been
ergonomically
designed for
maximum
utility and
comfort.
While the
‘Afandina’
will have
the best
that modern
technology
allows, the
ancient ways
and
traditions
will also be
respected,
such as
using
lanterns in
the evenings
for dinners
on the open
deck, and
obtaining
fresh food
organically
grown, and
cooked and
baked in the
traditional
manner.
-
‘Afandina’
will also be
equipped
with a
library with
books on
ancient and
modern
Egypt, as
well as a
mini
planetarium
with
astronomical
software and
a telescope
for
stargazing
at night in
the crystal
clear skies
of Upper
Egypt
