Does anyone know if it is possible to sail up the Nile (and, of course,
back down again)
I watched a travel show tonight that had heaps of Egyptian sailboats
(dhows?) and wondered if it was possible to do it in a private
"non-Egyptian" capacity.

Just curious as there are lots of other destinations in mind and I hadn't
given that one any thought at all.


Goran Schildt sailed up the Nile in a 38ft ketch in the fifties and wrote a
great book about the trip.
