EBOOK CONTENTS: (printable pdf format)
Nile River Cruise: Over 66,000 words!! and over 100 photos and illustrations.(Mostly colour)
Looking for a travel guide that dares to be honest? Our Travel Egypt Nile Cruise book provides you with an insight into what to expect from a Nile Cruise, given from an experienced perspective that does not shy away from confronting the issues and letting you know the scams, as well as the pleasures awaiting you on your Egyptian vacation.
Unlike the cruise booklet that most Tour Operators send out with your booking, our Cruise Guide book tells you how it really is!
Our Travel Egypt books offer straight answers, with sound and practical holiday advice. This book is illustrated throughout in colour and contains, amongst other things:
GENERAL INFORMATION: Such as, medical advice, visa requirements, facts and figures, prices, boat facilities and layout, money matters, cruise schedules, safety issues, etc.
SUGGESTIONS: Such as, suitable clothing, useful Arabic phrases, local customs, local dishes and drinks etc.
PRACTICAL ADVICE: Such as how to deal with unwanted attention, intimidation and illness. Plus, extra costs involved that you are rarely told about, local scams, hassle, bartering tips, things to avoid, etc.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Such as ancient sites, reviews, entertainment, extra excursions, useful links, free downloads etc.
The book tells you how it is, without over romanticising the experience, and contains information you would be hard pressed to find in one place. A must read for anyone planning, or thinking of taking an Egyptian Nile Cruise. It is a unique guide to the 'events' of a Nile Cruise and whilst we discuss the ancient sites in some detail this book has been specifically written for the purpose of 'telling you how it is' in order to help people deal with the scams, hassle and bartering that could ruin their holiday.
The ebook has been put together from our own photographic collection, experiences and personal observations.

EBOOK CONTENTS: (printable pdf format)
Photographing the Ancient Sites: 24,000 words, 96 (A4 size) pages and 250 colour illustrations.
This book has been written for the average traveller, on an average package holiday to Egypt, with average photographic skills. Our aim when writing this book was to demonstrate what is possible with the most basic of camera equipment and technical know-how. Therefore the vast majority of photographs in the book have been chosen simply because they can be easily replicated by most people. Plus, we have also tried to keep the technical side of photography down to a bare minimum so that the vast majority of the information will be of use to the vast majority of readers.
As most tourists on package holidays will find out on their first trip to Egypt, basically they are put into groups and herded around the main sites like cattle in order to keep them moving, because frankly without this, the whole place would become grid locked. So, as soon as one group have finished looking at a particular place of interest, another group is immediately ready to step into their shoes. Naturally, this leaves very little time to browse and take in the wonderful sites, let alone photograph. On such example of this is Karnak Temple, which is a huge complex and impossible to get around in one visit.
One of the most common feedback comments I receive is that many people at the end of the guided tour, when they are given – say thirty minutes to spend on their own, have no idea how to spend that time wisely, and are simply overwhelmed by the size and complexity of the sites. Therefore what we have tried to do is highlight some of the better areas to photograph in the very limited time you will have at each particular site - areas, which your guide may have omitted, due to time restrictions, accessibility and numbers. So hopefully, be the end of your hectic schedule you will have some decent and fascinating photographs to show your family and friends rather than just reams and reams of hieroglyphic walls and blocks of stone, which, whilst fascinating at the time, become pretty boring to look at over and over again.
Let me say that this book has not been written for the professional photographer or the physically adventurous type traveller who wants to get off the regularly beaten tourist track and photograph uncommon photos.
The book offers hints, tips and suggestions and covers the main tourist sites such as; Karnak and Luxor Temples, Theban Necropolis, Colossi, Nile Cruise, Pyramids and Sphinx, Sound and Light show, Cairo Museum.
It discusses digital photography, different film types, lenses, tomb photography, photographic vantage points, the use of photo software such as Photoshop and Paintshop Pro, etc.
The book contains over 250 original photographs including; Nile views, Pyramids, Sphinx, Cairo Museum, Karnak, Luxor, Balloon Trip, Obelisks, Various Temples, Scarab, Sacred Lake, Sound and Light, Tutankhamun Mask, Deir el-Bahri, Tomb Interiors, Valley of the Kings, Various Statues, Nile sunset and Manipulations (‘Before and Afters’ and ‘Creative Imagery’).
There is also a list of useful links for both photography and Egypt at the end of the book.
Happy shooting!
