Worth more than £250 per person, the offer applies to holidays taken between August 30 and December 13 2009. The cruise costs from £1,345pp full-board; 2 nights with breakfast at the Villa Belle Epoque, scheduled flights and all transfers are also included.
Villa Belle Epoque is Cairo’s first boutique hotel. This painstakingly restored 1920s townhouse has just 13 bedrooms and is set in a tranquil gardens 5 miles south of the city centre.
Recommended by 101 Holidays’ editors, the dahabiyyas have just 6 cabins and, because of their smaller size, are able to stop at private moorings and little-visited Nile islands en route between Luxor and Aswan. Crafted in wood in the style of the 19th century river vessels, they offer a decidedly genteel way to explore this fascinating part of the world.
