Valentine’s Day is a wonderful excuse to plan an upscale romantic getaway, and an Oberoi Nile cruise gives you that luxurious setting to spend uninterrupted time together. On your journey, you can spend quiet mornings on deck or watch over ancient temples with a golden sunset as their backdrop. With refined comforts and a naturally intimate atmosphere, a romantic Nile cruise aboard an Oberoi liner gives you a memorable way to celebrate Valentine’s or any special milestone.
The Oberoi Zahra offers one of the most refined ways for you and your loved one to explore Upper Egypt. On this Oberoi Nile cruise, you’ll sail between Luxor and Aswan aboard a five-star ship with refined cabins and elegant shared spaces, available on 4-, 5-, or extended itineraries.
Everything feels thoughtfully arranged, so you can relax completely while drifting past timeless landscapes.
The high-end and comfortable cabins of the Oberoi Zahra give you uninterrupted views of the Nile is not just from your bedroom but even from your marble-and-mosaic bathroom.
Each luxury cabin measures approximately 26.4 square meters and includes:
It gives you a peaceful space to unwind after a day of exploring Egypt’s temples and river towns!
To take comfort even further, consider booking one of the luxury suites, on the Oberoi Zahra. Each 50-square-meter suite includes a separate living area and an outdoor Jacuzzi—perfect for when you simply want to spend quiet evenings together under the stars.
You’ll also find four dedicated therapy rooms on this Oberoi Nile cruise, each with its own shower and steam area to make spa time feel private and restorative.
If you’re looking for a refined mix of upscale accommodation and engaging onboard experiences, the Oberoi Philae cruise ship delivers a beautiful setting for your Valentine escape.
The ship itself is comfortable and well-designed, so being on board feels enjoyable rather than just functional. It also works as a convenient home base for sightseeing. You can conveniently explore nearby sites without constant packing or travel, while still leaving plenty of downtime to relax together on the river.
In your spacious cabin, you’re treated to panoramic views you can enjoy from a thoughtfully designed living area. Choose a room with a private balcony so you can step outside whenever you like and watch the Nile flow past!
