What a fun evening. The guide and driver were very friendly and careful with us. We took my friend's twelve-year-old son, and he had a blast. The food was really good, with enough choices to satisfy a child/picky eater. The dancing was spectacular, and the dancers were very friendly. We really enjoyed seeing Cairo at night from the river.

Our tour guide waited at our hotel for us even though we were running late. As for the cruise experience it was ok. If you like loud music and decent food then I would recommend.

If you are first timer to Cairo this tour is a must. The tour leader picked me up at my hotel, delivered me to the ship and then was there to pick me up when I finished and brought me to my hotel. Soo easy. The dinner on the ship was delicious and the service was fantastic. The show was ok. Nothing too fabulous. The belly dancer was gorgeous. The singers / male dancers, well.....they couldn't compete. Excellent value for the price paid. Above all, its a boat ride on the Nile in Egypt. Holy cow! Amazing.

Cruise was fantastic. Had lots of Egyptian decorations and food was good. The belly dancer and Whirling Dervish were very entertaining. Best way to cruise the Nile!

Food was okay. Service was good. Music was nice. It’s Cool being able to say I sailed down the Nile. Belly dancer was fun to watch. I booked it as a space filler so we could get out of the hotel for a night.
