THE BEST!

This is the best book you can buy with useful information about traveling in Egypt! This is not one of those book full of pictures with no information that you can actually use. I am getting ready to go to Egypt and of all the 5 books I bought, this is the best!

Edith goes to Egypt

I really thought this guide book was easy to read, and packed with worthwhile information. I'll let you know more when I return.
