Amazing Nile River Tour!
Mo Salah is the best tour guide I ever had on Viator. He made my birthday very special for me especially since I was traveling alone. He stayed on the tour with me so I wouldn’t be alone and captured all my pictures and was very hospitable and accommodating!

Worth it and very good
We can say the tour was worth it. The Nile atmosphere with the sailing was enjoyable but you need to go to the top deck of the cruise. The shows were fun and a bit funny and the food quality was okay not great but acceptable. The driver was polite, on time, and his car was fairly clean and this tour slightly changed our impression of Cairo

Mixed Review: The Pros and Cons
When booking, what I didn’t like was that there were 3 options, varying significantly in price, but not giving details as to what was included for the difference aside from “premium service”. I chose the highest, assuming there would be more/better options, and it was not excessively expensive in my opinion (actually, the lowest price option seemed too good to be true…). Asking my guide, he confirmed that it was a completely different boat tour between them.
I give it a mixed review.
The pros:
- guide (driver) was great: on-time, friendly, and helpful
- food was good - quality and quantity of buffet
- boat was nice and spacious
- alcohol drinks were extra, but reasonably priced
What I didn’t like so much:
- definitely seems more of a ‘dinner cruise’ that a sightseeing cruise. So if that is your intention, you may like it more
- the boat did not go very far for a 2 hour duration
- seemed more oriented towards locals with a sing-along (assuming of Egyptian songs) for the final hour on the top (outdoor) deck
There were different music/entertainment options on all 3 decks. Again, not my interest, but maybe good for others.
Overall, I wouldn’t do it again, but not disappointed that I did. Personally, if it was only 1 hour boat ride or if the boat went farther/ faster (breeze would be welcomed), it would be improved.

Second time in Egypt
This is my second time booking with Pharaonic Vision and once again the experience was truly exceptional. The Nile cruise was incredibly enjoyable.. especially the fresh breeze that adds a special touch to the tour. The entertainment was engaging and never dull and the dinner was quite good considering the price Thank you for a wonderful evening and Thank you for Our Guide Mo Salah

Not the Greatest Cruise
The driver was great, suggesting a later pick up time so we wouldn’t get to the boat so early before departure. The food was just ok and kind of cold. The singer was flat but people seemed to enjoy him…I didn’t. The belly dancer was really bad and didn’t really do much dancing. Mostly she walked around to take pictures with people so they could buy the photos. The musicians were fabulous and the twirling guy was very good and the most interesting part of the show. We couldn’t really seem much of the Nile from the boat area we were in. We went up to the top for awhile to get a better view but it was crowded. All in all I could have done without the cruise and saved a few dollars. But I guess at least I can say I cruised the Nile.

Mostafa is Great
Mosteafa was great. From hotel ride to the cruise everything was excellent. So far best experience wine Egypt. He made us feel comfortable in his taxi and showed us the way to cruise 100/10

Awesome Nile cruise!
The overall experience was amazing. From the pickup which they contact you to make sure you are aware of the pickup time and zone. The driver was on time! The tour guide was helpful and was very detailed and even took up to a couple shops.
