Cruise FAQ

Is it suitable for luxury travelers?

No. Luxury travelers should compare premium ships.

What should I check before booking?

Confirm cabin photos, inclusions, ticket policy, and guide language.

What does Princess Sarah cost across the seasons?

The listed $469 per person reflects a reduction from $499. Rates step up through the year, lowest from June to August and highest over Easter and the Christmas and New Year sailings. Send us your dates and we will confirm the exact figure.

Which direction does it sail?

Luxor to Aswan, southbound, over 4 or 5 days, covering Karnak, the West Bank, Edfu, Kom Ombo and Philae.

What are the cabins like?

Simple cabins with a private bathroom, air conditioning and standard housekeeping, plus a dining room, sun deck, lounge and reception. Dining is a fixed-time buffet.

Is it worth upgrading from this ship?

If this is a once-in-a-lifetime trip, yes. The step up to deluxe changes the on-board experience more than the price gap suggests. The temples are the same either way, so it comes down to how much of the trip you expect to spend on board.
