Just returned from the most wonderful…

Just returned from the most wonderful holiday on the Dream. What an elegant way to drift down the Nile on a small 120 year old sail boat. We were pampered with freshly cooked eggs for breakfast, welcome smoothies upon our return from an outing, wonderful food and a fantastic helpful crew. The itinerary covered everything you need to see guided by a very knowledgeable guide who brought it all to life. The hot air balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings was spectacular and most memorable. Holiday of a life-time

Honestly its there in the title DREAM

Honestly its there in the title, Dream. The trip was amazing. The crew onboard were amazing from start to finish making sure we had everything we needed, even giving us a wonderfull supprise dinner on the banks of the nile filled with good food, Music and dancing. The guide was amazing and made the trip that much more enjoyable knowing more about the history of each temple. The boat its self was an amazing 1920s? boat that actually carried some of the early explores over 100 years ago.

A Dream in every sense of the word

Just returned from a wonderful week on the Dahabiya Dream.
The holiday exceeded our expectations and this was because of the boat and the crew who looked after us. Nothing was too much trouble, we were treated like Kings and Queens as we majestically sailed down the Nile. I could not recommend this highly enough. I wish I was still onboard !!

Such a fabulous week

Such a fabulous week. The boat and rooms are beautiful, the staff very attentive and the food lovely. Our gentle cruise down the Nile was so peaceful watching water buffalo, bird life, fisherman and their families. Our Egyptologist was very knowledgeable and filled us with his passion. The other guests on the boat were great company and we have all exchanged details! If you have the chance go, you will never regret being treated like Kings and Queens…

An absolute Dream

We got back from our trip on the Dehabiya Dream in early March and we are still processing all the amazing things we experienced in Egypt. It’s an astounding place and it will take us a long time to absorb all we saw. The Dehabiya Dream is a beautiful boat and a serene way to travel. The deck was cool and comfortable and the best place to sit and watch the Nile go by.

Ideal for great family gathering

WOW! Perfection in every tiny detail… from beauty of the “Dream” to the smiling and expert crew. Our family of 8 senior/retired adults sailed the Nile as titled gentry of old must have done. Only, this was in modern luxury and comfort unequalled.Each member of the entire crew performed duties as the pros they are, with the single goal of making us comfortable, enlightened.

Superb in every way

An absolutely amazing and memorable holiday. Everything ran like clockwork. The hotel in Cairo was superb as was the extension in Hurghada. On board the Dream was a real privilege.All the crew were so lovely, involving us all as a family on board for the week. Our fellow sailors were great company and we all had such fun together.

The ‘Dream’ experience

From the moment we arrived on Dream until we left a week later we couldn’t fault our holiday. The crew were great, every meal was fabulous, cabin extremely comfortable with good shower and loads of hot water. Our guide on board was incredibly knowledgeable and brilliant at getting us round the many temples and museums.

One of the best trips of our lives

Visiting Egypt with all it’s cultural wonders has been a long time dream of ours that came true in March 2023. The experience started a few months earlier when Linda crafted an itineray including all internal flights, hotels and guides in Egypt including the stay at the Dahibiya. She was very responsive and accomodating to make sure the itinerary was optimal for us.
