Nile River Cruise on Zekrayaat

[Diveloonie]

I don't see any other's that have done a review of a Nile River Cruise, so here I am to do one.  We just got back from an amazing two weeks in Egypt, of which 4 nights were spent on board the dahabiya sailboat, Zekrayaat.  This sailboat holds a maximum of 12 people.  On our cruise, there were just 4 of us, with 8 crew!  This cruise was a highlight of our trip to Egypt.  Very relaxing and just amazing to be sailing on the same river that once carried Kings & Pharoahs.  I loved watching life along the banks.  The food on the boat was the best of our whole trip and the crew could not wait to do anything to make us happy.  I highly recommend a Nile cruise on the traditional boats, Dahabiya.  What I would not do, is the large, cruise boats that we saw many of cruising the Nile, that hold 100+ pax.
