Egypt Raiders

Egypt is a multi-ethnic country North Africa, mainly to the Arabs, and secondly to Nubia (Egypt and indigenous, complexion, facial features bump, a figure of Mongolian Taka like), white, Bedouin (desert nomads), the official language is Arabic, religious beliefs, Islam, and secondly to Christianity.

If you are a tourist resort, on the environment and enjoy high demands, Egypt is not an ideal tourist destination.

Security: as has been the "Luxor massacre", the Government of Egypt on the safety of tourists.

In addition to foreign tourists tour bus configuration dedicated armed police escort, tourist attractions and its lines also arranged for the military police standing guard sentry, can be seen along the ganglou, outpost, shooting shelter, etc. But we did not feel any line, up to the girls suffered a lot of "one kiss" tofu. In fact personal experience than some domestic cities safer, almost no theft, robbery, and even our yacht on the legacy of sunglasses should also be as equals (to know that Egypt was a very poor countries), it is estimated that the teachings of the Koran.

Catering: we in Egypt's diet is basically the so-called Western-style buffet + Chinese food.

Western-style buffet have nothing to say, basically to all-you-can-eat, mainly to red meat, then be assorted bread (there are several very good) and vegetables and fruits. There are kinds of vegetables, delicious eat caigua looks like night blooming, General for salad or fried food. Fruit quality is not very good, especially little moisture, especially a persimmon, heads, and cherry, its flavour generally very astringent, it is difficult to access. According to the guide said that local eating is very poor, General two similar Qiang cake pie would get, good point also in two pieces of bread in a pinch beans. Generally this two bread with beans or 50 El points, you can eat for a day, but unfortunately not able to get a taste. I do not know what due to seasonal or other reasons, the reputation of sugarcane juice did not see that it is understood that such drinks only in the West Bank of Luxor Nile, unfortunately we only have the quick and flawless one product.

Exchange: when we left Shanghai, the US dollar price is $ 7.19 (now seems to be losing a lot), and the dollar exchange rate EGP 5.5: 1.

In General, Egypt's consumption level is still low, the two of us for 100 dollars, if not what to buy big words should be sufficient. We are at the Luxor Hotel convertible, we strongly for a few coins on the request of the Bank staff is not too happy to change 4 25 El points to us. Later we knew how Egypt's coins, then difficult and did not change too. Only took out to buy u.s. clams a face value of strict observance of the non-value coins.

Shopping: as the consumption level of lower Egypt, so many souvenirs or rather purchase value.

We visited the Aswan market, and Cairo Hariri market, it is said that Luxor market is also good, as long as you have the patience and vision, always washing a lot of worthwhile things.

Papyrus art: General A4 size is 8 El lbs, A3 size is 10-12 points, if you are Brown, slightly higher prices.

True or false test method: massaging immediately after restoration, no creases. Also look at the signature, if this is the manual, the same individual production, signature should not be in the same Department. Personal recommendations if not money burning unbearably so, not to guide and lead the boutique Papyrus straight in the purchase, looks almost the same, the difference between the price which is 10 times. We have a bit of the regiment of travellers in the store bought cards probably 2 meter banner of papyrus art and spent $ 170, but also happy to pidianpidian, but in Hariri market but also about 170 EGP. (Of course, is using the same testing methods to verify authenticity. ）

Flavor: Egypt's world-famous flavor, you can say that every traveler will bring dots as souvenirs.

Egypt flavor of many types, generally have a single flavor and two mixed flavor. Single scented rose (Attar of Roses), Jasmine (Jasmine), narcissus (Narcissus), Lotus (Lotus is the national flower of Egypt, it is said that this kind of flavor and must not be taken abroad, but the taste is also not very), Lavender (Lavander), mint (Mint toxin, a cold has worked wonders). Mixed flavor has a life of keys (the Key Of Life Polo perfume of the main raw material, male), figure Taka Mont (Tut-Ankh-Amon, CK ONE perfume of main materials), Creole Petra (Queen Cleoptra in Egypt is called Egypt gaudily in France after the perfume, is called the main CD perfume materials), Desert Storm (Arabian Night hailed as Arab viagra, men point 5), 5 mi (Five Secrets Channel main materials NO.5), the secret of the desert (the Secret of the Sesert Arab Wei Jie, female point 3 points), naffati reference (Nefertity "Ya Shi LAN Dai" perfume of main material). Flavor shop attendant anomalies, beverage cold drink hospitality ready, you can choose to do business, but are less flexible. 60ml ml Pack of buy three get one free of charge, 150ml ml buy 2 get 2, then we buy large numbers of let him help us by some, but not willing to die. Take a tour members also owner doesn't allow interest, 80 dollars four bottle 60ml, results that man can only give his boss KILL. However later bought 60ml Pack 4 bottle of 135 dollars sent two essence bottle in number, I think actually should be able to win $ 120.

Drinking water: had to mention drinking water.

Look at the domestic many travels have said that Egypt's drinking water is very expensive, and some even said to 10 knife a bottle. Indeed Egypt of bottled water and not expensive, the General Assembly of only 2 1.5L EGP (2.6RMB), even in a cruise on the EGP 8, depriving a bottle of farmer Springs kept with us.

Other crafts: Arab lamp is very special, we buy

A white, 70 EGP; flavor bottle of trumpet 10 Pack 9 knife box, medium size 4 Pack a box 35, the EGP Group also bought a silver ring, wand inscribed Egypt, 80 EGP; coins stamps souvenir set 1-2 dollars a set. DFS: Cairo International Airport, DFS has purchased without collar BOSS's TSHIRT in gift box, two pieces of $ 43; Doha International Airport of DFS option a little more, the prices of alcoholic drinks and half of the basic domestic, $ 32 Chinese 10 packaging, Panda 5 packages $ 34, as well as cosmetics and fragrances also attracted many domestic tourist dollars. Doha Airport also held pumping millions of dollars in prize activities, but to buy a lottery ticket, do not know why in a smoke, so I didn't participate. But still pretty greedy people Prize, first prize of $ 1 million; second prize Benz SLK550; third prize BMW740i.
