The ship · AmaLilia

The AmaLilia is a modern river cruise ship operated by AmaWaterways that operates exclusively on the Nile between Luxor and Aswan. With only 41 cabins and room for 82 guests, she offers a comparatively intimate experience among Nile cruisers. An Egyptologist traveling on board classifies the temples and excavation sites on the shore before small excursion groups disembark.

For queer travelers, the ship is best known for Brand g Vacations: The tour operator, which specializes in LGBTQ+ round trips, regularly rents the AmaLilia in its entirety. The charter trips combine a stay in Cairo with a multi-day trip on the Nile and are aimed at a predominantly gay group of guests who want to combine culture and history with a relaxed on-board atmosphere. Instead of loud parties, the focus is on smaller, personal formats, from cabaret evenings to discussion rounds with the tour guides.

Those who book the AmaLilia outside of such charters travel in the regular AmaWaterways program and benefit from the same facilities: suites with a French balcony, pool deck and a range of dishes between Egyptian and international cuisine.

Frequently asked questions

How does an LGBT cruise differ from a regular one?
As a rule the entire ship is chartered — a 100% queer crowd with its own programme of DJs, drag shows and themed parties.

What is usually included?
Cabin, full board, entertainment and pool are mostly included. Premium drinks, spa and shore excursions are usually charged separately.

Is the trip suitable for solo travellers?
Yes — the solo share is high on many trips, and there are often dedicated solo meet-ups on board.

What are the cancellation terms?
That depends on the operator. You will find the exact deadlines and conditions directly with the provider.

What about safety when docking in restrictive countries?
The operators are careful about route choices. At controversial ports, shore excursions are curated thoughtfully.
