The word “Eyaru” is an antique heliographic name that reflects the ancient Egyptians’ notion of paradise, where people live in the Eyaru fields after death. Eyaru was inspired by the concept of Eyaru during the design process. Everything on Eyaru was created with the “Eyaru” concept in mind. It was designed to show and appreciate the true Egyptian culture of the region.

Eyaru is centered on the Egyptian spirit. You’ll be completely immersed in Egyptian culture, and you’ll sense the Egyptian soul in everything you see. From the dishes to the rugs, everything on Eyaru is handcrafted. Each room has a unique design inspired by the Ancient Egyptian concept of Eyaru, so you may immerse yourself in the Egyptian ambiance in each one.

While exploring new sites in Egypt via unique itineraries, you will be treated to the most wonderful hospitality. Between Luxor and Aswan, you’ll see numerous magnificent locations along the Nile River, including El Hagz Island, Bassaw Village, and Gebel El-Silsila, which are only accessible by Dahabiyas and not offered on big cruises. You will not only be able to explore the beautiful attractions between Luxor and Aswan, but you will also be able to experience real local life and tour each city’s bazaar. You will stay at a local’s home in Bassaw Village and engage with him and his family. You will spend a day in the life of an Egyptian, learning about their culture and how they live.

Your meals on Eyaru will also have an Egyptian flavor to them. All of your meals will be authentic Egyptian cuisine throughout your stay. On your way to the local stores, you may pick up fresh items for your dinner that night or fish to cook on the sundeck! You will be able to thoroughly immerse yourself in the Egyptian way of life. You may also participate in live cooking sessions for your supper and discover local delicacies to try when you go home.

Eyaru may be enjoyed all year because of its most noticeable feature, its pergola. The pergola screens off a portion of the sundeck. So there’s no need to remain inside throughout the winter and miss out on the Nile’s stunning splendor. As a result, Eyaru is one of the few Dahabiyas that ply the Luxor-Aswan route.

Eyaru has no motors and is towed by a tugboat from afar in case of calm wind, so you won’t hear or feel anything throughout your journey. For the first time on the Nile, the Eyaru crew sleeps on board the tugboat at night, giving you full solitude.
