Welcome to Egypt!

Egypt welcomes you with its mighty Nile and magnificent monuments, the beguiling desert and lush delta, and with its long past and welcoming, story-loving people.

With sand-covered tombs, austere pyramids and towering Pharaonic temples, Egypt brings out the explorer in all of us. Visit the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, where Tutankhamun’s tomb was unearthed, and see the glittering finds in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. It's all epic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide, very thorough and well written.

One of the things I love about lonely planet guide books is that they write their books for the independent traveler and by that I mean the guides are very thorough and they always say at least a little about everything and cover bigger things in even greater detail. I like the way they recommend top sights, restaurants, and hotels. All in all, very well rounded guide books with lots of the little details necessary for independent travel. I have traveled to over 70 countries and use them almost exclusively.

This book was very helpful for dining and navigating Giza. Just wish the Egyptian museum hours were accurate because the book says they close at 7pm and when we arrived at 4pm, we only had 1 hour to zoom through the mummies because they actually close at 5pm!

Just went on a month-long trip to Egypt on June 2019 and despite this book being last updated on 2018, it had great and up to date content regarding places, attractions and things to do. I have pretty much being building a collection of all the Lonely Planets I have bought, I have no been disappointed.

I bought this book for travel to Egypt with my family as we did not book through a travel agent. I read quite a lot of the book before traveling and it helped plan our trip! It was also our travel guide as we made our way around Egypt. The information in the book is accurate and very helpful.

We are planning a trip to Egypt in March of 2019. This books answers so many practical questions that we had. Money exchange, phone SIM cards , appropriate clothing, etc. It also has many color illustrations that make us anxious to get started on our adventure. We have traveled to many European countries and Lonely Planet has never let us down!

4.0 out of 5 stars An okay guide and the only current one on Egypt, so...
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2019
Verified Purchase
Overall, this is an okay guidebook, although it seems aimed at more of a budget traveler than I am, apparently. Gave it four stars because the section on Cairo is confusing and because it often describes sites that are closed to the public (why include them in such detail if you can't go to them??). It's the only current guidebook on the market, but I wish Fodor's and Frommer's would update theirs so that it isn't. (Still much better than DK, though, which is only pretty pictures and contains none of the information you really need to plan a trip.)
