What we in the West call "Belly Dance", is a theatricalized version of one of the social dances done throughout the region of tghe Middle east and North Africa. Its done by men, women, young and old. Its only the professional version done in night clubs that is considered by most to "a woman's job". I saw many guys who were good dancers, however, filming was difficult because of all the people moving around.
A word of caution: Women object very strongly to being taped or photographed. I stopped filming when the girl got up because she had just riffed a guy a new one on the previous boat for taking her picture!
The party boats across from the Hilton are cheap. For 2 Egyptian pounds, (34 cents U.S.), they take you on a 15 min spin. They offer the local population, of families means of affordable entertainment, and the young guys a fun way to blow off some steam. Because of the low cost most people spend the night boat hoping. Gives a great opportunity to see some good, (and not so good), dancing in its native setting.

Love the music. I bet this is one of the boats I went on over there. See what the girl is doing near the end? You only do that when you are WAY out on the Nile, away from prying eyes!!! There's nothing to do there at night though - just ride those boats - and walk around . . . the breeze from the water feels great, though.
There's tons to do at night. You just have to know where to go and have a bit of a budget. I'm in Cairo right now heading over to the boats right now :-)
