I have quite a selection of these Eyewitness travel books and rate them very highly .They are very informative and some of the half day and full day walks are excellently laid out . From experience the restaurant /cafe recommendations are very accurate regarding description and price etc

Purchased the guide for Egypt which has detailed information on the sites we visited. Size of book not too large to carry around, but a bit heavy, but worth it for the information it contains.

Excellent travel guide
17 Oct 2007
Format:Paperback
I bought three travel books for Egypt (also Rough Guide and Lonely Planet), and this was my favorite. It is loaded with pictures and 3D layouts of the tourist attractions and cities. It lists the sites not to be missed and gives a great summary of the places and history. The section on practicalities of travel is also complete and helpful. Although the latest Rough Guide to Egypt has more in-depth coverage, the DK book will be going with me to Egypt.

Pretty good but Lonely Planet is 10 times better!
2 Mar 2008
Format:Paperback
While this book has a lot of pretty pictures, and quite a bit of information, I found the lonely planet guide to have about twice as much information on any given area, and cover more of the obscure places in Egypt.

Limited Detailed Information
12 Dec 2008
Format:Paperback
Not a bad guide, decent overview of all the sites and also cultural aspects of Egypt. My major complaint is that the maps are terrible. There is only one actual map, and it is only of Cairo (East of the Nile). So if you're staying in Giza (Cairo west of the Nile) you are kind of out of luck. Additionally there are loads of restaurants listed, but if they don't happen to be in Cairo then they will be no map of the location. If you're considering eating out, or doing anthing without a guide then you will need an additional guide book.
