Berlitz Handbook Egypt is the ultimate practical,
inspirational guide to this fascinating destination, with 304 pages
combining authoritative narrative detail and stunning color
photography. What sets the guide apart is the illuminating Unique
Experiences section, packed full of practical advice on how to make
the most of all the opportunities unique to Egypt – from exploring
chaotic Cairo to venturing into the desert on a safari or diving
and snorkelling in the Red Sea.
The guide starts with a rundown of Egypt’s Top 25 Attractions,
ranging from the magnificent Pyramids and Tutankhamun’s gold mask
to the pleasures of drifting down the Nile on a cruise ship. In the
Trip Planner you’ll find itineraries outlining how best to maximise
your time in Egypt, whether you’re embarking on a week’s tour of
the temples and pyramids or a month of sporting activities.
The Places Section covers Egypt’s most significant regions,
starting with the capital, Cairo and the Great Pyramids, heading
along the Nile to the great temples in the Valley of the Kings, on
to the Sinai and Red Sea resorts, and ending in the oases of the
desert. Each chapter is color-coded for easy reference, and
features everything you’ll need to know about the sights and
attractions in the area as well as maps to help you get around and
carefully chosen listings of the best places to sleep, eat, drink,
and get active. The Places section is interspersed with fully
mapped tours, suggesting a classic walking route such as a tour of
Islamic Cairo or a walk round the Mediterranean city of Alexandria,
and Cultural Spreads that give a striking insight into an element
of Egypt’s culture, from belly dancing in Cairo to hieroglyphs and
Ramadan.
Further practical advice is provided in a chapter dedicated to
accommodations, transportation, health and safety, money and
budgeting, responsible travel, and family holidays. The Setting the
Scene chapter is devoted to Egypt’s historical and cultural
background, plus information on the country’s cuisine.
Finally, a handy 8-page Phrasebook section provides a wealth of
language expertise for which the Berlitz brand is famous.
