Mohamed H.
I paid 2600 L.E. for a night on a Nile cruise boat for two, with three meals and a Nile view room. The photos they sent were misleading, and the room wasn't clean. Neither the blankets nor the below cases were clean. The first meal they offered was lunch, but it wasn't the open buffet they had claimed. The food was so bad I couldn't eat it. They also don't include drinks, not even water, in the offer, then sell water at an expensive price.

The meal was okay, like something home-cooked, but neither the portion nor the taste was anything special. The boat ride was smooth, though it lasted a little over an hour instead of the promised two and didn't go very far. Afterward there was a folkloric dance show, but they insisted that photos with the dancers be taken by their photographers, not on personal phones. I went with my mom for an Iftar gathering. The boat is fairly close, near the start of the Nile in Maadi. It was an okay experience, but I wouldn't go back.

We waited for the boat to leave at 7:30 pm, but it didn't move until 08:50, almost 9 pm. By then it was completely dark, so you couldn't see anything of the Nile. The restaurant's A/Cs weren't working properly either, and everyone was sweating over their food. When I asked the manager to lower the temperature, he brushed it off, saying it was only five minutes before we'd head to the roof. The food was awful. The servers handed it out piece by piece when asked, picking the smallest Mahshy to put on the plate. The chicken was terrible, and I couldn't tell what kind of beef the Kofta was made from. It seemed like food cooked a week earlier and reheated. The roof tables looked like they were from 1950, with very old furniture. It felt like they were taking advantage of customers who didn't know what to expect. I wouldn't do it again or recommend it. Find another cruise.

The price seemed okay for what was provided, and I enjoyed the enthusiastic dancing and atmosphere. There was free parking too. We did get to enjoy the view, but the Nile cruise lasted only an hour even though the program said two. The big downside was the buffet. The food quality was poor, and the serving plates were dirty.

I was invited for one night and got through it, but I wouldn't return even for free. The boat was old and filthy, and dinner left us with food poisoning. The AC didn't work and there was no WiFi. It's low quality and dirty, and I can't recommend it, especially to anyone with standards or expectations. No amount of cleaning would fix it.
