    The Houseboat is a fantastic place to explore Zamalek from. Right on the Nile, we got a glimpse of life on the river from our sunny balcony. The owners are extremely helpful and make it very accessible to ask anything. From the thoughtfully curated decorations to the pdf filled with information, you can tell so much love has been put into this place.

    Mohammed met us at the gate and carried our super heavy luggage downstairs to the houseboat. We don’t speak the same language but didn’t have a bit of trouble communicating. That guy is strong! Our room was nice, but that view! Sitting on our balcony directly on the Nile was AMAZING! There was always something going on in the river. It was a fabulous place to sit and soak it in. I’m in Cairo, on the Nile! The location is fantastic and everything is nearby. Uber is wonderful and inexpensive here! Order food. Hang out on balcony.

    the place provides a unique experience - sleeping in a house boat, on the Nile, in the heart of the city. the place is designed tastefully, and the views to the river are beautiful, especially in the morning. )you'll actually feel the house moving when there are small waves :) (not something that bothered our sleep
