Snapshot

The 82-passenger Viking Osiris is among the most upscale ships in Egypt. Sister ship to Viking Aton and Viking Hathor, the river ship from Viking River Cruises takes travelers on trips to Cairo — where you can take in the ancient pyramids and Great Sphinx — and then on to historic ruins along the Nile River.

Specifically built to navigate the Nile River, Viking's Egypt ships have been fully reengineered to the most modern standards of comfort and elegance. With French balconies, hotel-style beds in every spacious stateroom and public areas bathed in light, Osiris and its sister ships are among the most sophisticated river ships sailing the region.
