A sunset cruise on the Nile by traditional felucca was one of the best things we did in Egypt.

Is Dar es Salaam, Tanzania dangerous for tourists? We didn't think so.
In recent years, political turmoil has taken a toll on Egypt's tourist trade, but there may never be a better time to visit than right now.
Getting scammed by the immigration office in Dar es Salaam wasn't fun. Thank goodness our first impression of Tanzania was wrong.
