Sailing on the Oberoi Philae was an amazing experience. I loved the exclusive and elegant ambiance of the cruise. The suites are super comfortable, and the view of the Nile is spectacular from every corner of the ship. The best part was exploring the temples of Edfu and Kom Ombo with private excursions, and the spa on board was perfect for relaxing afterwards. Also, the gourmet dinners in the restaurant with that sunset view...amazing! I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a luxury Nile experience with a personal touch.
