Egypt Travel Guide

I've been to Egypt and love it ! This was one of the most exotic destinations I have been to, even more than Greece & Turkey ! The archaeology is not only unbelievable, it's for real, just like you see in the movies, in books, on the internet, etc ! In select locations you visit, while there, the people do live "way back" in time, again, like you see in the movies, etc. Visiting Egypt allows you to get upclose and personal with all the different sites.

Nile river cruising is different than European river cruising, in that these boats do not have "all" the uupdated and modern amenities. Such as, the aircondition is not as cool as one would wish; To board the boat is actually a board; And the boats line up beside each other, so if yours is the last one, you walk through the atrium of all the boats, till you get to yours. And you never reach out and touch the waters of the Nile, as the waters are not clean as European waterways.

My visit to Egypt was through an "economy" type agency. Though the boats are not personally owned, I would suggest using a name brand tour operator, such as Viking River Cruises, etc.

If you have been to Egypt, please share your experience.
