Off to Egypt on my hols for a fortnight, see ya'll on my return. :D :D :D :D :D AK
Grrr... Oh well, I shall get my own back in october/november, when I am going to the Seychelles for two weeks.
I went to Egypt last year and loved it! Expect to be seen as a walking £$ and "persistant" selling tactics. Accept that's how it is and don't let it get to you and all else is great
Have a great time My dad was talking about his holiday to Egypt the other day, he went in 1978 or something before it was that common a destination for tourists, and he said his strongest memories were of some Egyptian man trying to sell him his daughter (!) and the stomach bug he caught that made sneezing/coughing/laughing very dangerous for the next fortnight :chunder:. Don't let that put you off though, he did stay in, and I quote 'the cheapest hotel I could find where anyone spoke english' :newbie:
Well, Ive done a nile cruise and stayed at Luxor - brill time. The missus gets some sun and I get to go to the valley of the kings etc superb. And Ive been to Cairo on business - what a complete waste of time. (although the business was very interesting) Trying the red sea this time.
