About

Ankh 1 Sandal

Ankh 1 Sandal combines comfort and beauty in a most inspiring way, promising a remarkable, rewarding Nile river sail experience of legendary hospitality. Ankh 1 Sandal will take you back in time to a gentler, more gracious era in from 2 to 5 nights sailing cruise experience between Edfu and Aswan


Sandal boats are small Nile cruisers powered by wind, rather than motor. When traveling by Sandal, one has the advantage of experiencing the silences and natural sounds of the Nile. You also get to visit the small islands in the area, which is not possible on bigger Nile cruises.


Ankh 1 Sandal provides all the facilities of large cruise ships while offering the advantage of a more intimate setting. Ankh 1 has only 12 passengers, compared to an average of more than 100 guests on a large cruise boat.
