Unmissable Adventures for First-Timers - Cruise Review Entertainment, Food, Ambiance, and More!
We had a memorable experience on the cruise, particularly enjoying the entertainment. You have the flexibility to start with either the entertainment or the food, and we opted for the former upon arrival. The performance was top-notch, earning a solid 9/10 from us.
Now, onto the food. While opinions may vary, we found it lacking in quality and taste, giving it a 8/10. We'd suggest grabbing a bite before or after the cruise to ensure a satisfying meal. Plus, keep in mind that beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, come at an additional cost.
The ambiance onboard was delightful, offering a relaxed and enjoyable vibe. After dinner, you can head to the top deck to soak in the breeze and the mesmerizing views of the Nile River, perfect for some picturesque moments.
As for the facilities, the bathrooms were clean, although the presence of attendants expecting tips is worth noting. It's customary in Egypt, so be prepared for that. Unfortunately, there was a prevalent cigarette smell near the restrooms, a common occurrence due to smoking in the corridor.
Our experience was elevated by our driver/guide, Hassan. He was exceptional, ensuring a seamless experience from hotel pickup to boat embarkation. Hassan's attentiveness and kindness made us feel well taken care of throughout the journey, earning him a perfect 10/10 rating in our books. We couldn't recommend him enough!

Our driver was not only punctual but remained with us throughout the entire cruise, ensuring a seamless experience and even capturing memorable moments with his photography skills.

The entertainment, featuring a talented singer, captivating belly dancer, and the delightful surprise of a male dancer, added to the fun atmosphere of the cruise. Despite the slight inconvenience of tipping expectations, the overall experience was thoroughly enjoyable.

A Memorable Experience - Enchanting Evening A Delightful Cruise Experience
My husband and I attended the dinner cruise yesterday, and we were thoroughly impressed by the captivating performances of the belly dancer and the mesmerizing tanoura dancer. The ambiance aboard the cruise was delightful, adding to the overall charm of the evening. However, it's worth noting that amidst the enchantment of the show, one might forget they're actually on a cruise, especially during the nighttime when visibility is limited.
Regarding prices, it's true that they may seem a bit high, but it's essential to consider the economic context of Egypt, where inflation rates are soaring. Tourism plays a significant role in the country's economy, and the prices reflect this reality.
As for the buffet, the food was satisfactory, offering a decent selection. Additionally, alcohol was available onboard, and we indulged in a couple of Sakara beers priced at 150 Egyptian pounds each.
Overall, it was a wonderful experience, despite the higher prices, and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening on the cruise.

Sailing the Nile - Sailing the Nile A Night of Splendor with Hassan
Our evening began with a seamless pickup from our hotel, followed by a warm welcome from Hassan at the River Hotel. Hassan's friendly demeanor and informative guidance set the tone for the night ahead. As we settled into our seats, we marveled at the grandeur of the boat, pleasantly surprised to discover it housed a hotel within. While the buffet offered a variety of tasty dishes, some items were slightly cold, a common occurrence with open buffets. However, this minor detail was quickly overshadowed by the dazzling performances of the belly dancer and her male counterpart, who captivated us with their talent and glamour. As we sipped drinks on the upper deck, cruising down the majestic Nile, we found ourselves immersed in a tranquil oasis, a welcome escape from the chaos of Cairo's bustling streets. Overall, it was a truly delightful experience that left us with lasting memories.
