I'm going on the nile cruise in February, I've been advised by friends who have been to Egypt before to take Egyptian pounds and some dollars. Hope this help

I am also booked on March 2nd Trip, nice to see you! Have you done any just you trips before?

Anyway hopefully catch you again before we go.

I am travelling up from Shropshire on March 1st and staying at The Holiday Inn (junction 4 off M4 one) where are you from?

Speak soon

I am only taking Egyptian pounds, seems logical to me as we are going to Egypt. Freinds of mine have just come back from there and they said make sure you have lots of small denomination notes in egyptian pounds for tips etc as everyone who does anything for you will expect some kind of tip, and also some cheap pens to give to the children. Not long now!

I went on the February 2nd Nile Cruise. It was great. The ships have pool towels by the swimming pool and towels in the room.

I took £100 sterling in Egyptian pounds and changed some more sterling into Egyptian pounds while I was there - the hotel in Cairo had a 24 hour bank however the ship does not change money , and banks are closed Friday and Saturday.

We needed US Dollars to pay for the extra trips with JustYou - you will get a letter about 2 weeks before you go - about $300 - so I took $600

I also took sterling. Credit cards are accepted at major stores and to pay the bill on the ship at the end of the week. However Egyptian currency is best for street markets and haggling.

Have a good trip
