What are the Nile Cruise ships like?
Well, there are various “levels” of Nile Cruise ships available to you and in Chapter 3 of the Free Nile Cruise Guide you will be able to read more about the various options open to you when you book your Nile Cruise.Â
Essentially most people will cruise on a 5 Star ship such as the “Da Vinci“, the “Domina Prestige” or the “MS. Stephanie” the complete images and descriptions of which can be seen on the Nile Cruise Ships page on our main website.
You might, however, choose to cruise on one of the wonderful superior and deluxe Nile Cruise ships such as the 5 Star Superior “Royal Viking” or the 5 Star Deluxe “Alexander The Great” and we would be delighted to arrange for you to cruise the Nile on any of the many deluxe ships that are available.
To give you an overview of what you can expect from your Nile Cruise vessel we’ll use the 5 Star Superior “Royal Viking” as a “typical” example.
