The Couples Ultimate Guide to Egypt

This 12-chapter travel guide walks couples through everything they need to plan an unforgettable Egypt trip together. You'll get the best months to fly, how to breeze through the $25 e-visa process, a his-and-hers packing list built for desert heat and temple dress codes, and a full breakdown of Egyptian currency, credit card requirements at monuments, and exactly how much to tip everyone from your guide to the bathroom attendant. The guide covers Cairo's must-see experiences including the Pyramids, the brand-new Grand Egyptian Museum, Khan el-Khalili bazaar, and Nile dinner cruises. Then it takes you south to Luxor for the Valley of the Kings and sunrise hot air balloon rides, Aswan for Philae Temple and sunset felucca sails, and a full Nile cruise breakdown comparing standard ships to intimate dahabiyas. The Red Sea chapter covers all-inclusive resorts in Hurghada and Soma Bay with snorkeling, diving, and optional desert safaris with Bedouin dinner under the stars. A dedicated safety and cultural etiquette chapter covers everything from mosque dress codes to haggling at markets. The guide closes with two ready-to-book itineraries — a 7-day escape and a 14-day deep dive — each with full budget breakdowns at three spending levels.
