S.S. Sphinx

The S.S. Sphinx is an elegantly designed Nile vessel featuring 42 well-appointed suites and a range of onboard amenities, including two gourmet dining venues, a swimming pool, and a massage room. The ship’s design emphasizes an immersive sense of place, with interiors crafted by local artisans and materials sourced within the region. Fine Egyptian cottons, marble finishes, and hand-carved blonde wood showcase traditional craftsmanship while reflecting a thoughtful approach to sustainability.

All staterooms and suites feature French balconies, allowing guests to enjoy Nile views from the comfort of their accommodations. While the S.S. Sphinx offers a refined and comfortable onboard experience, its amenities may differ from those found on Uniworld-company-owned vessels.

River Tosca

The River Tosca reflects the warmth and character of Egypt through its intimate, all-suite design and inviting onboard atmosphere. Interiors feature rich wood finishes and thoughtfully arranged public spaces that encourage relaxation and connection. Guests can unwind on the expansive Sun Deck, complete with shaded cabanas and a swimming pool, or gather in the stylish lounge adorned with locally sourced decorative elements inspired by the region.

Each suite is designed for comfort and elegance, featuring high-quality locally made products such as Egyptian cotton linens. With a maximum capacity of just 82 guests and a nearly one-to-one staff-to-guest ratio, the River Tosca delivers a highly personalized and indulgent cruising experience. All staterooms and suites include French balconies.

While the River Tosca is a luxurious vessel, its amenities may differ from those of Uniworld-company-owned ships.
