Princess Sarah II is the larger of the two Princess Sarah ships

At $479 per person this sits just above the standard average of $468. It is the slightly larger sister to the Princess Sarah, which matters mainly for public space and evening atmosphere rather than cabin standard, and it is rated five stars with straightforward comfort.

Its listing highlights Valley of the Kings access, which in practice is a Luxor-side excursion rather than something unique to this ship, so do not let it drive the decision on its own. Facilities are restaurant, sun deck, lounge and reception, pool listed as available rather than confirmed.

It sails Luxor to Aswan via Edfu and Kom Ombo, four or three nights. A sensible choice if you want a name that is easy to research and a price close to the middle of the tier.
