A&K Sanctuary’s newest Nile River ship, the Nile Seray, has officially begun sailing the Nile River, offering four-night journeys between Luxor and Aswan.

Accommodating 64 guests across 32 suites, the riverboat brings together modern elegance, natural materials, and details inspired by Egypt’s artistic heritage. Across its spacious suites, contemporary lines and warm, earthy tones complement floor-to-ceiling windows that frame views of the river and its changing landscapes.

The two dining areas blend indoor and outdoor spaces, with views of passing feluccas and ancient monuments providing a striking backdrop to meals on the Nile. Onboard wellness facilities include a gym and two massage treatment rooms. Above, the sundeck provides a focal point for life on board, with a swimming pool, canopied seating, and panoramic views of the Nile.

Daily Excursions Visiting Ancient Egypt

Nile Seray sails between Aswan and Luxor on four-night voyages, with daily excursions exploring the temples, tombs, and historic landscapes along the river. All meals and excursions are included, and every Nile Seray voyage features complimentary insider access to some of Egypt’s most remarkable archaeological sites. Guests can explore the tombs of Seti I and Ramses VI on the West Bank of the Nile, alongside exclusive private openings of the tombs of Tutankhamun and Amenhotep III.

Expert A&K Egyptologists accompany excursions, bringing the stories, historical context and cultural significance of Egypt’s ancient monuments to life. The itinerary includes visits to the temples of Luxor, Karnak and Aswan, offering a detailed exploration of the civilizations that flourished along the Nile.

The experience extends beyond the major archaeological sites. Guests can sail by traditional felucca around Elephantine Island, take part in Egyptian cooking classes, and enjoy traditional entertainment on board.

A Distinctive Culinary Experience

Dining is an integral part of the Nile Seray experience, with a food and beverage concept developed by A&K Sanctuary’s in-house team that celebrates the country’s culinary heritage. Regional and seasonal ingredients, contemporary techniques and menus inspired by Egypt’s diverse food traditions create a distinctive expression of Egyptian gastronomy.
