Not sure if I should trust the book,
This review is from: Cultureshock! Egypt (Cultureshock Egypt: A Survival Guide to Customs & Etiquette) (Paperback)
I purchased this book before I move to Egypt and I'm a little concerned as the writer (who I assume is Amercian) keeps refering to how things are in Britain except the things she says aren't correct. I'm left wondering about the accuracy of the Egyptian content

excellent preparation,
By mssticgirl - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cultureshock! Egypt (Cultureshock Egypt: A Survival Guide to Customs & Etiquette) (Paperback)
My husband and I read this book before traveling to Egypt and found it very helpful in preparing for our travels. We did not go the typical route of American hotels and tours, but rather stayed with a friend and found our way around Cairo, Alexandria, and Luxor more or less on our own. It is an excellent book to make you aware of many cultural differences a traveler might not be aware of. I felt that we were able to be more respectful and understand cultural differences than we might have otherwise, had we just ready one of the regular sightseeing travel guides. This book makes some excellent points for women travelers especially, who need to be especially aware of the image they portray in many of the Middle Eastern countries.

OK for a first-time visitor,
By Ellen Grady "anguishfree" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cultureshock! Egypt (Cultureshock Egypt: A Survival Guide to Customs & Etiquette) (Paperback)
Although I have been to Egypt many times, I bought this book hoping to shed a little more light on that very mysterious country. I could have saved my money, because I didn't learn anything new. And the glossary is really terrible! However, first-time visitors will certainly appreciate this book.
