Just back from a 7 day cruise from Luxor to Aswan. The boat is truly 5 star, the staff are excellent, especially Mohammed and Omar, who went out of their way to make sure our son Peter had something he liked to eat every night. We stayed in one of the suites with our own private deck area and jacuzzi.... More

The Oberoi Zahra is perfect in every way. The staff are charming and could not be more helpful. The boat is beautiful with a warm heated pool on a beautiful sun deck the itinerary of trips are excellent and give a good balance of cruising on the Nile and seeing the antiquitaries. The food was excelelnt with the highest standards... More

Cannot express just how wonderful our stay on the Oberoi Zahra was. Everything was absolutely perfect. The staff were outstandingly thoughtful, attentive and courteous. The food was as though we were dining in a 5* restaurant three times a day. More

Really outstanding, from the personal welcome, the quality of the staff..nothing is too much trouble...the food onboard should be Michelin starred...the knowledgeable Egyptologists that accompany you from Luxor to Aswan excel. The onboard suites are meticulously planned and executed, with full floor to ceiling picture windows. This is definitely a holiday, that if you can spend your own childrens' inheritance... More

My Daughter and I were blessed to enjoy a 7 night Oberoi Zahra Cruise late November Aswan to Luxor. The Zahra is a very special boat with an amazing crew. Our Cabin was spacious, luxurious, extremely comfortable, and perfect for the journey. The Zahra has many beautiful areas to view the Nile but my favorite was top deck while having... More

The cabins and bathrooms had picture window views of the Nile. The food was exceptional definitely Michelin star standard. It was very spoiling to have an on board spa.... More

My husband and I have just returned from the best holiday we have ever had on the Oberoi Zahra, and I’m not sure that any review can do justice to the absolutely superb facilities and service you receive on this boat. The food is simply exquisite – so much so that we actively looked forward to every meal, including breakfast.... More

We spent a week on the Zahra, and, if we could would still be there. It is a great shame that the traveler's perception of Egypt means that they are staying away. Wrong! It only means that all our visits to the wonders of Egyptian history were uncrowded, and relaxed. The Zahra is, without doubt, the most professional hotel we... More

We had the good fortune to stay on the Zahra and it was fabulous. It was part of the best holiday myself and my partner could have wished for, although we have both put on weight from the fabulous food. Luckily the UK is now raining and cold and we are hiding the excess in thck jumpers! Our room was... More
