Nile ride
The boat ride was supposed to be an hour long. We sailed for approximately 25 minutes and the driver said all set we go back now. I said the ride is an hour long not 25 minutes, he said fine and sailed for another 15 minutes and said now we go back and kept asking so we cut the ride short. Would not recommend this to anyone, go on the motor boat instead.

Fantastic Pick up, Aggressive feluca driver :-(
Pick up and drop off was smooth. Sherif, the driver was great and entertaining! He even pointed out the landmarks of the city and offered us some drinks. However, felucca rider was incredibly pushy for a tip, and demanded it before the ride was even over!! We felt threatened and gave him something and he complained it was too small so we felt pressured and gave him some more…. Overall, experience was still good, aside from that one guy.

Nice sailing trip.
Amazing experience, fun sailing trip. Driver pick up on time and very welcoming. If you don't go, the captain wants us to write a women's speech. .......................................................................

The captain is friendly.
The chief is very friendly. He is a Korean. He is now in the Cape Roze apartment. He has been walking around and explaining the buildings and the university, and he talks Arabic with me.

Beautiful and relaxing!
It was so amazing and tranquil. Cairo can get so hectic but the Nile cruise was one of the most joyful and peaceful things we did in the city.

Humble and good driver
He was a really good driver. Very respectful and humble. He spoke English and was really nice. He waited for us while being on Nile boat. And he helped us when we needed to do extra detour.
