I read in last sunday’s Observer about Kate Pullinger’s latest novel which is set in 1860’s Egypt and based on the the life of writer Lucie Duff Gordon.

The article mentions that Kate was interviewed online by Sarah Hymas the poet.  If you visit Sarah’s excellent website you will be able to hear a reading by Kate Pullinger from her novel which is accompanied by a slideshow created by Sarah called “Night Views Over The Nile”.

Pharaoh's RevengeEvery now and then you’ll read about someone suffering whilst on a Nile Cruise from “Pharoahs’ Revenge“.  In other words a gyppy tummy.

In those cases it is usually assumed that its’ been caused by the food on the cruise.  However, in many occasions this has not proven to be the case and it turns out that it can often be put down to germs picked up from things like the Egyptian currency, which can be pretty well-used, or other surfaces touched whilst off the ship.

Of course, people can then touch their lips without thinking and then that’s when Pharoahs’ Revenge can kick in.

Royal Viking Nile CruiseIf there is any one Nile Cruise ship that we are selling that is excellent value then it has to the Royal Viking.  We currently have great deals for departures in June, July and early August and in comparison to some other Nile Cruise ship prices it is truly excellent value.

The ship itself is excellently finished and you will cruise in real comfort in well-appointed cabins with balconies.

Often, as with all travel and holiday prices, people look for what they call “the cheapest” price.  Sadly, I think with a product like a Nile Cruise, they are missing the point.  I think they should be looking for the “best value”.

Nile Cruise GuideSince we changed the Nile Cruise Guide over to a PDF version we have had no problems with people being able to download the guide.

The original Nile Cruise Guide was created using an eBook creator program that caused a problem every now and then for Mac/Apple users and also for anyone who wasnt’ particularly computer literate.
