Karma Karnak's inauguration was celebrated with a spectacular sunset launch party on September 29, 2022. The elegant river vessel features 56 air-conditioned cabins with ensuite bathrooms. All cabins feature large picture windows which gaze out over the Nile River and its vivid banks.
There is a selection of eateries serving exquisite local and international dishes, a choice of interior and al fresco bars, as well as an elevated pool deck and lounge that's perfect for taking in the extraordinary sights that unfold throughout the voyage.
Chief among these are the Millennia-old temples, tombs and statuary of the Ancient Egyptian dynasties - including celebrated attractions like the Valley of the Kings and Queens, once part of the ancient city of Thebes; the Tomb of Tutankhamun - which was discovered a hundred years ago complete with solid gold coffin and countless other treasures including the mummified body of the great Pharaoh himself; Abu Simbel with its massive temples cut into the living rock and of course the huge Temple complex of Karnak close to Luxor, from which Karma's new cruise vessel takes its name.
During the course of Karma Karnak's curated cruises, guests will also enjoy a deep dive into contemporary Egyptian culture, discovering the country's unique culinary traditions, local arts and crafts and hip neighbourhoods.
