"Dhows: A Journey through Time and Culture" Step aboard the Union-Castle Line's majestic dhow and embark on a captivating voyage. From the Pyramids along the Nile to the bustling city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, this vessel has witnessed history unfold since 1860. Imagine the scene as a slave-ship hoists its sail in the 1800s, carrying both tragedy and hope across vast oceans. These traditional Arab dhows later found solace in Zanzibar, where their graceful presence adorned turquoise waters. The S/Y Sanjeeda proudly represents an Arab dhow sailing through Mombasa, Kenya, East Africa - a testament to centuries-old maritime traditions that continue to thrive today. Its sails flutter against GMDE2A-00032 winds as it gracefully glides across azure horizons. Dhows gracefully navigate off Lamu Island, offering breathtaking views of its UNESCO World Heritage Site status. The old town's charm is mirrored by modernity as seen from Al-Corniche; Museum of Islamic Art stands tall amidst West Bay's contemporary skyline. Aswan beckons with timeless allure at Egypt's Cataract Hotel - a place where dhows have anchored for generations. Their presence symbolizes resilience and adaptability while showcasing cultural exchange between nations. Join us on this extraordinary journey aboard these magnificent vessels – witness history come alive as you explore diverse landscapes and immerse yourself in rich heritage. Let these dhows carry you through time and culture like never before.
