Even the connoisseur of Egypt will delight in the virgin landscapes
of Lake Nasser. Created as a result of the Aswan High Dam, the
lake covers a 500-km2 region known in antiquity as Nubia. To salvage
the area's rich archeological heritage, UNESCO launched the Nubian
Campaign in 1960, an effort involving 54 countries over a period
of 20 years. Today, Lake Nasser and the monuments relocated on
its shores are accessible to travelers with a passion for discovery
and a taste for comfort - aboard the cruise ships Eugenie and
Kasr Ibrim.
Spacious
interiors full of warmth and elegance await you on board Eugenie
and Kasr Ibrim, the first vessels launched on Lake Nasser. Explore
its natural beauty and archeological treasures in a gracious and
leisurely atmosphere provided by attentive hosts with 25 years of
experience in Nile cruising.
