Of course, it helps that I'm writing a novel on Hatshepsut- I've been obsessed with her since I was about 12. I actually shed a few tears when we pulled into view of her temple.Stephanie Thorntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17437077559099315853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052453698252224336.post-64617687364184016932010-05-25T18:59:41.116+02:002010-05-25T18:59:41.116+02:00Thank you for showing the pictures and telling us ...Thank you for showing the pictures and telling us about your amazing trip.

Waiting for everyone to get to a place for the guide to explain would drive me insane. <br /><br />We got a small bus for four of the writers to take us from El Gouna to Luxor with a guide and lunch at the hotel, and drinks in the bus included and it cost us 100 Euros. It was a fantastic deal since our guide was absolutely passionate about Egyptian history. I definitely want to go again with my husband and if possible I will use the same tour company, Pro Tours. I'd stay in Luxor at least a week. One of the writers here managed to get an apartment when she visited before for 90 Egyptian pounds per week (1 euro=7 pounds). I think that's the best thing to do, get an apartment and hire a personal guide. <br /><br />It was funny because our guide's husband was also a guide. She in English and him in German. It is astounding how Egyptians make such an effort to speak the language of the tourists but few tourists can say anything in Arabic, me included.Laurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11112458658109887868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9052453698252224336.post-52326574848225273312010-05-25T10:45:18.655+02:002010-05-25T10:45:18.655+02:00Beautiful photos, Lauri.
