About this tour
When the sun goes down, Cairo's bridges and towers light up along the river. Board a dinner cruiser in the city centre and sail for two hours while you enjoy an open buffet and live entertainment.
The highlight is the Tanoura, a hypnotic Sufi-inspired dance in which performers spin for minutes in layered, colourful skirts. Step up to the rooftop deck between shows to watch the city drift by. Your private driver takes you there and back, so the evening is completely effortless.
