A Dahabiya is a traditional Egyptian boat that was commonly used in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It’s a type of luxurious, flat-bottomed sailing vessel designed for leisurely river cruises along the Nile. The word “Dahabiya” is derived from the Arabic word “dahab,” meaning “gold,” reflecting the boat’s opulent nature.
These boats are known for their elegant and spacious design, often featuring ornate interiors, large decks, and comfortable accommodations. They were particularly popular among wealthy travelers and explorers who wanted a more intimate and exclusive experience compared to the larger steamships of the time. Today, Dahabiyas are sometimes used for nostalgic and luxury river cruises, offering a glimpse into the bygone era of Nile travel.
