Kemet Dahabeya - Nile Sailing between Luxor and Aswan

Overview

Kemet Dahabeya being christened after the ancient Egyptian name for Egypt, kemet, which, when translated, means ‘’Black Land’’, this Dahabeya homes in on the black, fertile soil from which the pharaohs drawn their inspiration.

Our sailboat of brand name ‘Kemet’ is nothing but a perfect mix of both the ancient history of Egypt and modern architectural aesthetics. Keeping the outline of the Dahabeya as slim as possible we have incorporated marine touches and filled it with exclusively Egyptian pieces of furniture and accessories. Compared to the traditional styled Motoryacht, the boat is of modern style constructed from artisans, craftsmen and ship builders of the present time. All the works and even the coloration gives a different perception of Egypt in the modern world.

Dahabeya Kemet has been exclusively designed and constructed with the help of Egyptian partners and is perfect for groups, it accommodates up to 19 passengers.
