The new vessel, named after the brightest star in the night sky, carries just 124 guests across 62 cabins; all guests have exclusive access to some of Egypt’s most storied archaeological sites guided by fully qualified Egyptologists. Shore visits led by Egyptologists take guests to sites like Karnak Temple, the Valley of the Kings and Queens, Abu Simbel, Philae Temple, and the new Grand Egyptian Museum.

Back on board, the ship boasts multiple dining venues, local Egyptian entertainment and a spacious sundeck with a pool.
