At a Glance
Oberoi, the nearly century-old brand that started with over-the-top luxury hotels in India, is also the company behind what are arguably the finest passenger boats on the Nile River. Here, on the temple- and tomb-dotted stretch between Aswan and Luxor, run the sister boats Zahra and Philae. The cruisers, which have only a few cabins and suites—Zahra has 27 while Philae has only 22—feature cool and contemporary design, including top-deck pools, sleek and serene interior design and oversized windows or French doors in each cabin.
