The start time was accurate the staff seated us at allocated tables. Drinks mildly expensive but nice and cold. Buffet was good especially the salad bar. Entertainment started with a warm up from like a animation type team they were ok. When later the singers and belly dancer came on they were great but I think my favourite was the spinning man he had the audience in the palm of his hands with his talent and his own personality shone through when engaging the audience...10 out of 10 for me 🎉☺️🎉

I enjoyed the cruise, the food was great and versitile and the shows were amazing. I was only disappointed as the reservation says 3 hours and we only spent 1.5 hours then we went back and they started clearing the place. I could not understand why we did not spend 3hours as stated in our reservation!! There should be honesty as I found cheaper cruises for 2 hours and chose to pay higher for the extra hour but ended up not even getting the 2 hours so that is disappointing

Gull highly recommended it—everything went very smoothly from the moment we arrived. The food was delicious, with a selection of appetizers including salads, soup, and bread. There was also a variety of main courses; I had fish and meat, which were both delicious, and there was a good selection of desserts as well. The show was excellent—even my wife danced. Thank you very much for the great service we received.

The most memorable dining moments on the Nile River dinner cruise were shaped by the way food, light, and movement came together. As the boat glided over the calm water, the city slowly unfolded on both banks—minarets glowing softly, bridges lit like necklaces, and reflections shimmering with every gentle ripple. The dining area felt warm and inviting, with tables set neatly while traditional music played in the background. Watching chefs prepare local dishes while the aroma of grilled meats, spices, and freshly baked bread filled the air added to the experience. Each course was enjoyed at an unhurried pace, perfectly matched to the slow rhythm of the river. Between bites, dancers in colorful costumes and live performers brought bursts of energy, creating moments where conversation paused and everyone simply watched. Eating while the Nile flowed quietly beside us made the meal feel less like dinner and more like a moving celebration of culture, history, and atmosphere.

A wonderful two-hour cruise on the Nile, with warm and engaging entertainment. All the dances were beautiful, from belly dancing to the whirling dervishes. Delicious buffet food with an excellent selection of desserts. Our driver, Mohamed, was extremely kind and helpful; he waited for us outside the cruise to take us back to our hotel in comfort. Highly recommended!

It was entertaining and the food was good, but it seemed extremely rushed. We also only got to take pictures towards the end, and only from a small deck, so.noy very comfortable
