Historia is one of the newest ships in our Luxury collection, built or refurbished in 2021. On a river where many vessels date back to the 1990s and early 2000s, that shows in the finish of the cabins, the public spaces and the overall feel of the ship.
It is also refreshingly small for a five-deck vessel: 50 cabins and no more than 96 guests, so the sun deck, pool and lounge bar rarely feel full. Cabins are 22 sq m with a private bathroom, mini bar and WiFi, and there is a spa for when you need a slower afternoon. At $690, Historia is priced at the top of our range – you are paying for a modern ship and a calm, uncrowded experience rather than extra floor space.
| Ship | Category | Cabins | Cabin size | From price | Facilities |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Historia Luxury Nile Cruise | Luxury | 50 | 22 sq m | $690 | Pool, Spa |
| Sudan Steamer Nile Cruise | Luxury | 23 | 22 sq m | $690 | On request |
| MS Esplanade Nile Cruise | Luxury | 67 | 20 sq m | $690 | Pool, Spa, Gym, Jacuzzi |
| Sonesta Moon Goddess Nile Cruise | Luxury | 53 | 20 sq m | $690 | On request |
Historia pairs a 2021 ship with a small guest list; MS Esplanade adds a gym and Jacuzzi at the same price, and Sudan Steamer is the pick for a truly tiny 23-cabin boat.
