Wednesday, April 25th, 2012When you head off on a Nile cruise, you might be keen to take plenty of snaps as a record of your adventures. After all, trips like this can be once in a lifetime experience, so it’s important you have mementos of your time in Egypt. Of course, taking fabulous pictures is also a great way to make your friends and family back home jealous!There are some rules you might benefit from knowing when you touch terra firma in the north African country. For example, all photography of military or government buildings and public works is strictly prohibited. Also, if you want to take photos of local people, it’s important to ask their permission and, if they agree, you should expect them to ask for a tip.When you’re taking a look at the fabulous monuments that dot the country, it’s generally fine to snap away and you can use flash if you wish. However, when you’re inside the monuments, flash is typically not allowed so it’s important to switch this function of your camera off.Meanwhile, some museums and historical sites may charge a fee for you to take pictures.As long as you are aware of these customs, you should be able to avoid any problems and get plenty of incredible photos of your Egypt Nile cruise. When you get home, you might even choose to have some of them digitally printed onto special canvases and so on. There’s no better way to commemorate your Nile cruises.
Timing your Nile cruise to perfection
Monday, April 23rd, 2012There’s no doubting the fact that Egypt is a magical place and so heading off on a Nile cruise can be a truly memorable experience. Steeped in history and full of natural wonder, this country is one of a kind and can offer the holiday of a lifetime. However, if you’re to get the most from your adventures in the north African nation, it’s important that you think about the weather.Egypt benefits from sun and clear skies for most of the year, so you won’t have to worry about rain. When it comes to temperatures, it’s worth doing a little research though.The hottest time of year is between June and September and for these summer months, it’s common for days to peak at 40°C and above. So, if you love feeling this level of warmth, this could be the perfect time of year for you to head off on your Nile cruise holidays.On the other hand, if you don’t cope too well with heat like this, you can time your stay to coincide with cooler periods. December and January might be perfect. During these months, the mercury in thermometers doesn’t tend to get up beyond the 22/23°C level. Of course, there are also spring and autumn to consider, which fall in between these two ends of the scale. As long as you think about heat before you go ahead and book your Nile cruises, you should have the time of your life while you are on your trip.
