The Farah stands out as a truly unique Nile cruise vessel, meticulously crafted with both intelligence and elegance. Its distinctive features set it apart from the typical Nile cruise experience.
A stunning, open lobby with Mediterranean stone floors welcomes guests, while the Sun Deck is unlike any other. The elegant restaurant, adorned in purple and white, boasts a modern aesthetic with stainless steel and crystal accents. A contemporary lounge and a complimentary spa featuring a gymnasium, sauna, and steam room, along with a massage room offering reasonable rates, add to the luxurious ambiance. The cabins are among the finest in the industry, featuring handcrafted Egyptian cotton sheets and natural dark wood furniture.
However, the Farah's appeal extends beyond its design and décor. Thoughtful touches are evident throughout, such as the strategic placement of guest cabins away from the engines. The kitchen and restaurant are located on the bottom floor adjacent to the engines, with staff cabins and laundry situated directly above.
Every dinner in the main restaurant is à la carte, showcasing some of the finest cuisine in Egypt, including special options for vegetarians. The Executive Chef hosts an on-board cooking class, where guests can learn the art of authentic Egyptian cooking. Free wireless internet access is available throughout the ship, including in all guest cabins. A library stocked with the works of Paulo Coelho in multiple languages can be found on the third floor. Fifty of the sixty cabins on board are located on the upper decks, and a telescope on the Sun Deck provides opportunities for stargazing.
All cabins and suites are equipped with modern amenities, including an LCD TV, mini-bar, private safe box, wireless internet connection, a private bathroom with a bathtub and hairdryer, panoramic soundproof windows that open to a French balcony, and individual climate control. The suites are twice the size of standard cabins, featuring a separate bedroom and living room area.
The Sun Deck offers a refreshing swimming pool surrounded by lounge chairs for sunbathing, as well as several private shaded seating areas for enjoying the views. A pool bar and barbecue buffet are also available. In addition to à la carte dinners, the main restaurant serves buffet breakfast and lunch. Located on the main deck, the lounge boasts a full bar, serving beer, wine, and liquor, allowing guests to unwind and savor the views while enjoying a drink.
From top to bottom, the Farah is a testament to exceptional craftsmanship and luxurious amenities, making it one of the finest cruise ships in the world.
