Description
Find your own journey. Egypt can be experienced through its history, but also from the water and in the landscape between the major sights. Lonely Planet’s classic country guide helps you choose a journey where experiences fit into a plan that suits your available time.
Experiences to look forward to. The book highlights tombs, diving at famous shipwrecks, and boat trips on the Nile. This provides different perspectives on the country and opportunities to vary your holiday days. Itineraries, maps, and practical tips provide a starting point for comparing potential stops and building a longer journey.
Who is this guide for? Choose the classic guide when you want a comprehensive book to plan from. Experience Egypt is another entry point with an emphasis on selected experiences; this country guide is suitable when you want to start with the big picture.
From inspiration to your own plan. Use the guide before departure to choose experiences you truly want, and see them in context with the rest of the trip. A route with fewer stops can provide more time to get to know each place, and it is often useful to leave some days less scheduled. Browse through it with your travel companions, compare ideas, and find a balance between what you want to achieve and what you want to have time to experience.
A physical travel guide is also great to return to along the way. Bring it out when the next leg is to be discussed, rediscover an idea you have noted, and let the plans evolve as you get to know the destination. It works equally well as inspiration for the initial travel dream and as support when you want to make specific choices.
