M.S Kasr Ibrim Lake Nasser 5* Deluxe
The M.S. Kasr Ibrim was named after
the ancient citadel on Lake Nasser, the only Nubian
monument that still exists in its original location. The
Kasr Ibrim citadel, standing on a high bluff overlooking
the river valley, was adapted to suit the needs of its
diverse occupants throughout the ages. Likewise, the
M.S. Kasr Ibrim provides an epic setting for
international travelers, while commemorating the citadel
as an enduring link with Egypt's distant past.
Relax in the ship's spacious lounge areas, its
restaurant or bars. On deck you will find a shaded area,
a mosaic-lined swimming pool and deckchairs to make the
most of idle luxury. Kasr Ibrim's facilities also
include a sauna, steam bath, exercise equipment,
state-of-the-art water filtration systems, and is fully
air-conditioned.
Service is thoughtful and friendly; the cuisine is
superb. Each day we anchor beside one of Lake Nasser's
historic sites, where a launch will take you ashore to
explore. |
