Boat Overview

Princess Donia gives guests a more than luxurious stay whilst keeping to the original character and design of a traditional dahabiya.


With only 5 double en-suite cabins and a maximum of 10 guests, Princess Donia ensures a very high standard of cuisine and accommodation, exceptional service, and a great atmosphere.  This elegant ship offers a personal touch that is sometimes lacking in today’s fast-paced world.

Imagine sitting on the deck and enjoying the amazing views in wonderful tranquil silence and see the many ancient Egyptian monuments, temples, tombs and scenes beside the Nile that have not changed in thousands of years.
