The Prince Abbas extends the choice of cruises to the relatively unknown treasures of Lake Nasser.
Here your cruise is different, quietly traveling a huge man-made lake on the largest, newest and most luxurious vessel on the lake.
The Prince Abbas provides places to meet, relax, eat and be entertained which can not be equaled for space, quality and refinement on the Nile or Lake Nasser. Cruise in peace and tranquility, enjoy our attentive service and tour magnificent temples and monuments which few have the opportunity to visit.
Marvel at the climax of your visit, the stunning Temples of Ramsis II at Abu Simbel. Perhaps, after the Pyramids of Giza, the most famous construction in Egypt, the temples are massive. Carved out of solid rock the main facade is 108ft high and 124ft wide; the temple penetrates 200 ft into the mountain. In the 1960's the imagination of the world was captured by the international project to relocate the temples 200ft above their original site, moving 20,000 tons of stone, to avoid the rising waters of the new lake.
M/S Prince Abbas Managed by
Like our Nile Fleet the Prince Abbas is specifically designed to cruise all year, with full air conditioning, on board water purification and the most up-to-date marine engineering and navigation technology, certified to the highest international standards for safety and comfort.
The Prince Abbas sets the highest standards for space, facilities, cuisine and care. Without the constraints of Nile navigation our guest accommodation is arranged on five decks, all with external walkways in keeping with the best traditions of the original Nile cruise ships. We have devoted even more space to lounges, sun decks, restaurants and bars, and provide larger and better equipped suites and cabins.
Our experienced crew ensures constant care and attention, and demonstrates the warmth of Egyptian hospitality.
Our chefs cater for all culinary tastes: International, vegetarian and Egyptian
While on board, carefully bronze on the Sun Deck, refresh in the plunge pool and whirlpool, take a nap in the shade and revive with a cocktail from the pool bar.
On the Salon Deck the lounge bar is ideal for a pre-dinner rendezvous, or for those who prefer to observe sun worshipers on the Lower Sun Deck in absolute comfort. The out door Oriental Lounge is perfect to enjoy evening cruises.
Relax in the Bridge Deck's Library, with high level panoramic views of the Lake , in the intimate atmosphere of a private club. The Greenery Room, overlooking the stern, will fast become a favorite meeting place for cocktails, after dinner coffee and liqueurs, a light snack during the day, or just enjoying the view.
For the games gurus we have the Billiard Room on the Forecastle Deck and the Gym for the seriously fit. If you overdo your exercise (or the sunshine) your clinic is next door.
You will be greeted at Reception on the Main Deck - cool, spacious and richly decorated with antiques of the Egyptian cruise traditions. This is our information centre so return as often as you please, to check on programs, tours, and the special events to make your cruise memorable.
The Restaurant Deck is the focus of our onboard entertainment, cuisine and evening relaxation. Our main restaurant will satisfy your hunger after a hard day's relaxation, stimulate your appetite for the exotic, and delight your palate with dishes from around the world.
