MS Darakum

One of the largest ships on the Nile, with 52 cabins and suites, the five-star MS Darakum is managed by the renowned Swiss hospitality company, Mövenpick, and has been designed with a shallow draft in order to navigate the full length of the Nile in Egypt. It is currently the only vessel cruising the Nile from Cairo all the way to Aswan – this cruise is very much a unique experience!

All cabins and suites feature individuallycontrolled air conditioning, hairdryer, safe, fridge, TV and tea & coffee making facilities. The beds are hotel-style and can be configured as a double or two twins, with fine Egyptian cotton sheets, and an evening turn-down service. All the wood-panelled bathrooms have a bath with a fixed shower above, along with complimentary toiletries. A laundry service is also available. Pool
