Nile Cruise Radamis I Movenpick Nile cruise adventure on the 5 star Radamis I. floating hotel managed by Moevenpick Swiss Hotels. 3 and 4 night Nile cruises between Aswan and Luxor May 1 - Oct 1 2009
Our first hotel ship was begun in 1990 and completed by 1991. Weighing 600 tons, the cruise is approximately 72 m long by 13.5 meters wide and 11.4 meters (4 decks) high, the draught (depth under the waterline) of only 1.38 meters. It includes 75 deluxe cabins including 4 suites (on the top two decks) and a number of triple cabins. Our basic rooms are famous on the Nile for being the most spacious, approximately 20meters square, and for the our fully equipped bathrooms which includes a bathtub, a hairdryer, and a shaving socket (110/220 volts). A large, specially designed, panoramic window allows our guests to view the Nile while lying on their beds.
The rooms are fitted with 20-inch televisions, mini-bars, climate-control and telephones that allow you to phone or fax anywhere around the world via our two dedicated GSM lines.
The ship has four main decks and a 900 meters square sundeck, as seen on the map. The spacious main restaurant is located on deck C and provides our guests with three gourmets Movenpick meals a day. Snacks and drinks are available around the pool and the bar on the Sundeck (not shown in map) and barbecues are sometimes held, weather permitting. Music and events are held in the lounge/disco, located on deck D, and it offers our guests an alternative place to relax and have a cool drink.
Our cruises are also famous for our water system. Unlike other cruises, our boilers and water tanks are designed to make sure that our clients will always have hot and cold water regardless of how many people are on board. Our purification system is the best on the Nile, taking in water from the river and passing it through two sand filters, two carbon filters, an ultra-violet filter, and a microbiology filter to give you pure, clean water. The trip includes a visit to all the main sites from Luxor to Aswan with an English-speaking guide. However, alternative languages, private guides, transfers to and from the airport and/or extra sightseeing can be arranged on request.
