Mat & Dryck
Dining on board is a highlight of the experience, featuring a blend of fine international cuisine and authentic local Egyptian dishes. Guests enjoy full-board service with meals served in a variety of settings, including elegant indoor dining areas and scenic al fresco spots on deck. The culinary team is well-versed in catering to diverse preferences, offering dedicated vegetarian and vegan options. Special requests, such as those for religious or allergy-related dietary needs, are accommodated with care when arranged in advance.
Shore excursions & land activities
The Iris Dahabiya focuses on immersive land-based exploration rather than underwater activities. Guests enjoy guided shore excursions that delve into the rich history and culture of the Nile region. These land trips are led by expert naturalists who provide deep insights into the ancient temples, local village life, and the unique geography of the riverbanks. While the primary focus is on cultural discovery through walking tours and site visits, the vessel also offers opportunities for light water-based activities. Guests can explore the river's quieter channels using kayaks or enjoy a refreshing swim in the Nile, providing a balanced pace of activity and relaxation throughout the cruise.

How do I get to the cruise ship?
Adventure cruise ships embark at a designated port or meeting point, depending on the itinerary.

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.
