.Egypt (Lonely Planet Country Guide)
City Travel Guides > Books > Africa
by: Virginia Maxwell, Mary Fitzpatrick, Siona Jenkins, Anthony Sattin

May 01, 2006
We've just come back from honeymoon and used this book when we visited Cairo and particularly the incredible museum... the descriptions are spot on and the book guides you thru' room by room. Our tour guide was saying practically the same things as the book, so its all you need!

Dress codes for women in Cairo aren't as strict as the book makes it out to be, there were loads of girls with string tops and shorts, so long skirts and long sleeved shirts aren't necessarily a must!! Other than that, pretty accurate about local customs and traditions.

.Tenerife (Rough Guide DIRECTIONS)
City Travel Guides > Books > Africa
by: Christian Williams

April 05, 2007
The Canaries aren't huge, but this book is still pretty undersized. There's no decent map included, and generally just a couple of pages on each subject. I'm looking for another guide book to supplement/replace it, frankly.

.Tanzania (Globetrotter Travel Map)
City Travel Guides > Books > Africa
by: Graham Mercer

January 01, 2007
Over the years there have been many "coffee-table" books on Tanzania and East Africa. This work rates with the best of them. The photographs manage to cover the huge panorama of life in Tanzania, in both the human and animal domains. The accompanying text is accurate and amusing, demonstrating Mercer's in depth knowledge of the people and the wildlife. Well worth the money!!

.La Palma and El Hierro (Landscapes)
City Travel Guides > Books > Africa
by: Noel Rochford

February 03, 2006
Walk 7: if your bus driver will not stop at the unofficial bus stop before the old tunnel, and mine did not, it is NOT possible to do what the book says and walk back through the tunnel to the starting point of the walk. There is an electronic dot matrix board prior to the tunnel exit and road signs at the exit that indicate: no pedestrians, no cyclists.
Walk 12: "easy descent" it states. Although this is a short walk it is a very steep descent and you will be working hard against the gradient too avoid picking up too much momentum.
