Luxury riverboat Nile Seray, A&K’s fifth and most “sophisticated and spacious” riverboat will launch in October 2026, with bookings on the 32-suite ship now open.

A&K has just released new renders showing the design approach, which it says “infuses modern elegance with heritage touches that nod to Egypt’s artistic legacy”.

The suites have floor-to-ceiling windows and the colour palette “echoes the warm tones of Egypt’s landscape, whilst handcrafted details celebrate local artisanship”. 

There are also two restaurants, an outdoor bar, swimming pool with canopied daybeds and a spa.

The luxury riverboat will sail between Aswan and Luxor on four-night voyages with excursions to the temples of Luxor and Karnak and a felucca sailing around Elephantine Island.

Expert A&K Egyptologists accompany every excursion, and every booking supports A&K Philanthropy’s initiatives, including long-standing partnerships with the Funtasia After School Program in Luxor and the Aswan Heart Centre, which provides free life-saving cardiac care to underprivileged patients.

AKTG CEO Cristina Levis says the riverboat, “represents the evolution of our nearly five decades of pioneering river cruising in Egypt”.

“This vessel embodies our understanding that luxury today is defined not by excess, but by space, authenticity, and the quality of experience.”

Nile Seray joins Nile Adventurer, Sun Boat III, Sun Boat IV, and Zein Nile Chateau.
