About Minya

Minya is a five-star dahabiya sailing under traditional lateen sails, with an auxiliary engine for manoeuvring, on the reach between Luxor and Aswan. The four-night itinerary runs from Esna up to Aswan, calling at Edfu and Kom Ombo, with a shorter three-night sailing in the reverse direction.

The boat has Nile-view cabins, a shaded sun deck, a lounge bar and a dining room. Full board is included, with chef-prepared breakfast, lunch and dinner on board.

Departures leave Esna on Mondays and Aswan on Fridays through the October to April high season.
