The show was good but very loud. Food not good. But being on the Nile was fun. I don't think it's worth the money. But we wanted to see belly dancing so for that I gave the 3star otherwise I would have given 2

To many people with poor food. The price for the experience not worth the money spend. The entertainment is average and the music to loud to enjoy.

It was a good evening, but the organisation was chaotic at best. We couldn’t enjoy the show properly because we were constantly being hassled for money, which was a bit strange because it’s not like we could go anywhere - we were on a boat after all. The food was good though.

I enjoyed my cruise with Nile Crystal cruise: pay attention to the location, the right address is Nile Crystal نايل كريستال - Kornish Al Nil Street out of Il Cairo. Text to them on WhatsApp!

Great experience. We enjoyed every bit of our visit and it felt that we had just seen an Egyptian cultural movies going back to 5000 years. Thanks to a good Egyptologist, we understood what we saw,

all these are crowded and if you have been to already done something like this in istanbul then you will be disappointed .

its a must see thing of Cairo tour. Only thing I felt that they should be little more careful about the dinner it self. seems that they try to make profit by serving cheaper food.

I booked the Maxim Nile River dinner cruise through my hotel concierge and took an Uber over to it which was about 5 mins away from my hotel and the Uber ride was literally $1. Uber is the way to go in Cairo because traffic is ridiculous so don’t try to drive anywhere. The cruise was worth it because it was so beautiful to see all the sites while sailing along the Nile River. The food was decent. I had the buffet with salad and sea bass for my entree. The food was just ok as to be expected for a quick dinner cruise. It wasn’t a rushed cruised. For entertainment we had the belly dancer and another show onboard. It literally was a nice fun cruise and worth the money. I would definitely try it if in Cairo. The Maxim was nice.

The food was great, and so was the entertainment. The singers were talented and sang a nice mix of English and Arabic music. The belly dancer put on a great show and it was nice to see what Cairo looked like lit up at night.

This tour company operates under diffrent names, they were over an hour late with my first tour and they scheduled this tour at 8am when none of the shops are open. Fortunately (?) because of they scheduled the wrong time on the first tour me and the guide realized they did the same thing with this tour. I had the same guide for both days so I just asked him to change it to 11am when the shop are actually open. I had no issue with the guide and driver, the company does not operate well and no apology will be forthcoming. The guide helped me find the silver necklaces I wanted, I appreciated that.

The Nile cruise and dinner is a very good experience. The food is great if a tad too salty. The different hummus and breads were amazing! The entertainment is good. The belly dancer was very good but what we enjoyed the most was the dervish dancer. He was incredibly amazing!

I regret to write this but honesty goes a long way. We signed up with the understanding to see an actual Arabic belly dancer only to be disappointed that she came from a foreign country. The boat was crowded and the food well below average. I would not recommend this to anyone.

The cruise was booked easily through an agent before arriving in Cairo. This was something that I wanted to experience as it is highly recommended in guides. The pick up was prompt and we were driven about 45-60 drive away out of Cairo to board the cruise. The cruise ship was ‘Andrea’. This was really no cruise but a floating double deck flotilla. The evening commenced with the quartet of males singing and playing their instruments. After about 15 minutes , the belly dancer appeared. The dancer danced to the tunes from the quartet. I found the whole routine rather boring and sleazy. This is my own opinion on this. There were a couple of females who were invited to join the dancer and that was better entertainment as they were all trying to perform the moves as the dancer. Then the dancer walks around the room , with the photographer in tow taking photos on each table. This is a ploy to make you purchase a photo with the dancer at a premium price of about $6. The tanoura was the male entertainer who spun around in his costume as well as perform some juggling tricks whilst spinning . This entertainment was far more better and he has the entire crowds attention. His routine lasted about 20 minutes but was great to see him. Once again the photo round was around each table to sell back photos that can be taken quite well, with current smartphones of a better quality. The buffet food was finally available and that was over stated. The food was rationed out , whilst some of it was lukewarm at best. If you are the 3rd person or more in the queue then you will have to have what’s left after spoons have been used to serve from different containers of food. The hot food is all served by the catering staff. I have never been a champion of buffet food and this was only going to ensure my opinion will remain the same. Dinner should be served at the table. One should not have to queue in a line to be served rations. After the meal , you are allowed to the top deck to take in the night views of the Nile as we sailed back. Overall , I cannot fault the driver and host from the company as they picked and dropped back to the hotel as agreed. The dancer was something I wanted to experience, but I would not use again. The tanoura was very entertaining indeed. The food was as above. I certainly would not describe it as dinner. I do think that the Nile cruise is overrated as it is a part ploy to make you part with extra cash at each stage with souvenirs , photos which they try to hard sell to you. I would not recommend this again , but it was something I wanted to experience .

Ahmed was on time at or hotel lobby, we start our trip to the boat with an really safe driver, on the boat there was lot's of entertainment and dancing and then the dinner, witch was good then ahmed took us back safely to the hotel. Thank you ahmed.

Cairo dinner with Egyptian music and food I strongly recommend it to enjoy Nile music and food I am really happy to share this expierence
