Product Description
Looking for a travel guide that dares to be honest? Unlike the cruise booklet that most Tour Operators send out with your booking, our Cruise Guide book tells you how it really is. Given from an experienced perspective that does not shy away from confronting the issues, it provides a valuable insight into what you can expect from a Nile Cruise by letting you know the scams, as well as the pleasures awaiting you on your Egyptian vacation. Our Travel Egypt books offer straight answers, with sound and practical holiday advice. This book is illustrated throughout with over 50 black and white photographs and contains, amongst other things: PRACTICAL ADVICE: Such as how to deal with hassle, unwanted attention, intimidation and illness. Plus, extra costs involved that you are rarely told about, local scams, bartering tips, things to avoid, etc. GENERAL INFORMATION: Such as, medical advice, visa requirements, facts and figures, prices, boat facilities and layout, money matters, cruise schedules, safety issues, etc. SUGGESTIONS: Such as, suitable clothing, useful Arabic phrases, local customs, local dishes and drinks etc. RECOMMENDATIONS: Such as ancient sites, reviews, entertainment, extra excursions, useful links, free downloads etc. The book tells you how it is, without over romanticising the experience, and contains information you would be hard pressed to find in one place. A must read for anyone planning, or thinking of taking an Egyptian Nile Cruise.

5 out of 5 stars Interesting for 1st time traveller to Egypt   September 19, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Even though i'm doing a lot of research on the internet regarding my upcoming trip to Egypt, i've learned a lot of things in that book that i hadn't found out on the net. The book is not expensive and totally worth it.

I've bought a few books regarding Nile Cruises and this is my favorite. As a specialist book the practicalities of travelling the Nile is complete and helpful. Boat layout and facilities, the do's and don'ts, stop offs, and help on how to get the best deals from the local traders. I also purchased the author's ebooks; 'About Luxor' and 'Photographing the Ancient Sites' - both of which I found very useful.
