Oberoi Philae

Vessel Type: Small Ship
Passenger Capacity: 44
Built / refurbished: 1996 / 2015
A voyage aboard the Oberoi Philae is a refined and unforgettable way to experience the timeless wonders of Egypt along the Nile. Originally built for 100 guests and reimagined in 2015 to host just 44, this elegant ship blends intimate luxury with spacious design. With nearly floor-to-ceiling windows in every cabin and an attentive staff of 65, the Philae offers a truly personalised journey. Days are filled with the mesmerising panorama of the riverbank, while evenings bring everyone together in the Lounge for engaging Recap sessions led by expert Egyptologists, who bring ancient temples and pharaohs to life with captivating stories.
Across five decks, the ship features 22 luxurious cabins, an Oberoi spa, and two restaurants—one a stylish indoor venue serving both local and continental cuisine, the other an al fresco space on the top deck. Here, guests can dine while watching the ever-changing scenery glide by, or relax beside the ship’s 36-foot swimming pool—the largest on the Nile. Whether unwinding with a book in the library or joining a photo session in the lounge, life aboard the Philae is unhurried and immersive, offering a rare blend of comfort, culture, and connection to the world’s most storied river.
