This unique silence enhances the birdwatching experience, making it truly immersive.

As you sail from the East Bank to the West Bank of the Nile towards Lord Kitchener's Island, your guide will point out various bird species, from Egrets—both adults and chicks—to Parakeets among the trees. Marvel at the vivid flora and fauna, including Hibiscus, lantana, bougainvillea, Poinciana, acacia trees, and mimosa, all flourishing in their natural habitat. As you continue upstream towards the Mausoleum of the Aga Khan, prepare to be dazzled by even more bird species inhabiting the waters around the Cataract Islands. The presence of Kingfishers, Malachite Kingfishers, Striated Herons, Little Bittern Herons, Night Herons, Little Green Bee Eaters, and Nile Valley Sunbirds makes for an unforgettable birdwatching experience.
