An excellent introduction to
Egypt, this journey includes Cairo's most
well-known sites and the treasures of the Nile
on a four-night cruise. The best way to ensure
that travelers enjoy the finest cruise
experience on the Nile is to design, build and
sail your own fleet of Nile ships - and that's
just what Abercrombie & Kent has done. Of the
more than 200 cruisers now sailing the Nile,
none surpass, in comfort, service or cuisine, 'Sun Boat IV.'
Born to sail the Nile
We began with a simple idea: to create
spacious, technologically up-to-date and
safety-conscious ships designed expressly for
Nile cruising. No retrofits or renovations in
our fleet: The A&K ships were born to sail the
sunny Nile. 'Sun Boat IV' has large, inviting
lounges lined with windows so you can sightsee
as you relax over a cool drink or a game of
backgammon. On spacious sun decks atop each
cruiser, comfortable lounge chairs surround
plunge pools, perfect for a refreshing dip under
brilliant Egyptian skies.
Relax!
It's our policy to ensure that all travelers
on board a Nile cruise enjoy their stay in peace
and comfort. Mobile phone use is not allowed on
board, and smoking is permitted only in
designated areas of the outer deck. |
