Esmeralda je říční výletní loď v oblasti Egypt.
Experience the timeless beauty of the Nile aboard the Esmeralda, a sophisticated river cruise ship offering elegant cabins, gourmet dining, and immersive cultural excursions.
Řeka Nil, protékající samotným srdcem Egypta, zůstává jednou z nejúchvatnějších vodních cest na světě – tepnou, která po tisíciletí udržovala civilizace při životě. Loď Esmeralda nabízí elegantní způsob, jak proplouvat touto…
Dining on board is a highlight of the cruise, featuring a mix of international and traditional Egyptian cuisine. Breakfast and lunch are served buffet-style in the Garnet Restaurant, offering a wide variety of fresh options. Dinner is presented as an à la carte experience, providing a more formal and refined atmosphere. Special dietary needs, such as vegetarian or vegan requirements, are accommodated upon request. Guests can also enjoy snacks throughout the day and a selection of beverages, including local wines and beers, at the Ruby Bar.
The Esmeralda focuses on immersive land-based exploration rather than underwater activities. Guests enjoy guided excursions to Egypt's most significant historical landmarks, including the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, and the Philae Temple. These tours are led by professional guides who provide context and history for each site. The pace of these excursions is designed to be engaging yet comfortable, allowing ample time for photography and personal discovery. The cruise itinerary is carefully curated to balance active days of sightseeing with relaxing afternoons spent sailing the Nile, ensuring a well-rounded cultural experience.

Select a cabin and departure on Esmeralda, and we send a real-time inquiry to the operator. After availability is confirmed, you receive a booking confirmation by email and secure your spot with a deposit.
A deposit (usually 25-35%) is due upon confirmation. The remaining balance is typically due 4-8 weeks before departure, depending on the operator.
After your final payment, you'll receive a travel voucher with meeting point, embarkation time, airport transfer details, packing tips, and your full itinerary.
Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary. Some operators arrange airport pickup, group flights or transfers; check your booking confirmation and travel voucher for what is included. We recommend arriving in the gateway city at least one day before departure, unless your operator provides different instructions.
Bring sturdy, closed-toe walking shoes with good grip for shore visits, and comfortable clothing suited to your destination's weather. Pack breathable layers, a sun hat and sun protection for warm regions; for colder or wetter conditions, add warm layers and a waterproof, windproof jacket. Check the operator's packing list for landing footwear, any supplied equipment and specific requirements.
Cancellation terms vary by operator and are in your confirmation. Generally, the earlier you cancel the higher the refund. Changes depend on availability, contact us as soon as possible.
