Viking Osiris

Sailing with just 82 passengers and replete with sophisticated Scandinavian design elements, Viking Osiris has the look and feel of a boutique hotel on the Nile. Cozy up with a coffee in the airy two-story atrium at the heart of the ship—a rarity for river vessels—and watch lush scenery like date palms and mango groves pass by the floor-to-ceiling windows. Elsewhere on board are brand-favorite amenities like the Aquavit Terrace and Sun Deck, where travelers can grab a quick bite alfresco in the elegant-yet-unfussy atmosphere for which the line is beloved. Throughout the ship are rare photographs of George Herbert, Lord Carnarvon—the benefactor of the archaeological dig that unearthed Tutankhamen’s tomb in the 1920s. The photos show Lord Carnarvon at work in the Valley of the Kings and evoke a strong sense of place. Purpose-built for the Nile, Viking Osiris sails to well-known highlights of the region like the Valley of the Kings, Luxor Temple, and the city of Aswan, as well as smaller riverside villages like Qena and Esna. After a long day exploring ancient sites in the Saharan sun, expect to be greeted by cheerful staff with cool hand towels and hand-squeezed juice. Once you’re feeling refreshed, head to the ship’s aft with a cocktail to laze by the plunge pool and watch the sunset or simply retire to your stateroom’s private veranda to enjoy the sound of the river gently lapping below.  —Jessica Puckett
