Art of traveling

by Kevin Gillett

Traveling can be pursued as a hobby, as an adventure, as passion or as the sustaining force of life. Compulsive travelers will tell you how it itches them to sit at home and look at furniture all day. The travel bug or the wanderlust; however you may name it does not leave them for a single moment and more often than not, they put on their spikes and start on that beautiful journey ahead.

If you want to experience the fullness of traveling, no one can guide you better than locals. Different city guides and various channels will tell you all about the past, present, demography, food, ethnicity, language and sights of the place but the local would tell you about the inherent charm of the place. He would bring you close to the voice of the city. These people are meant to know each stretch of the place and are hence the best guides for you. Using them will bring a new flavor in discovering the place.

Lets take an example. Suppose we visit a place that has a religious presence in the adjoined mountain. A company guide will tell us all about the religious importance but a local would also tell many more associated folklore of the place. Any traveler would vouch how these pieces of information thrill them. Moreover, the locals know many extra paths that lead to hidden destinations. These places cannot be enjoyed through tourist services. Today, there are many agencies like the Localyte which helps you tour like a local.

For authentic travel experience, people look for various travel services. The world has become a village today. In each place, you would find the reflection of some other place and this cosmopolitan culture adds to the tourist experience. Further, the old world charm of a place is looked at with great desire by a tourist.

Travel services or agencies generally provide with a bulk package. They take care of hotel booking and a complimentary breakfast. They will take you to various trips for sightseeing. Most of the sites would be renowned but very common. It is important to spend a little more and look for a customized deal. Be it trips or excursion, a tourist needs privacy and independent choice of traveling. This is where a customized deal proves better.

For example, a bulk package will take many groups to an island and arrange for a motor ride. A customized deal will offer a scuba-diving trip. A local would enrich the trip even further by taking you to those marine trenches which have vast coral reserves or aquatic animals. Such scuba experience will be unforgettable.

The travel agencies set a high price at times. A local adds to your experience at a very low cost. Sometimes a pound suffices. So check into an accommodation, get your travel gears on and look for these men who can help you travel along the line of your heart.

Egypt Vacations: Enjoy Cruises in the Nile, Red Sea & Lake Nasser

by Andrew Muigai

While on your Egypt vacation, there are several interesting activities you can undertake. Among these are luxury Nile cruises, or cruises in the the Red sea and Lake Nasser. River Nile has, since the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, won the admiration of many people, more so visitors seeking the ideal Egypt holidays.

The captivating landscape of the Nile valley adds great value to the nile cruise, allowing you to enjoy the best of the Nile while sampling the rich Egyptian cuisine. A typical nile cruise starts from either Luxor or Aswan, lasting either three nights, four nights, or seven nights. There are however shorter trips between Aswan and Luxor that take only a few hours.

The usual cruise is aboard a Nile cruiser, often referred to as a floating hotel. A cruiser has most features of a land based hotel, including small swimming pools, hot tubs, exercise rooms, nightclubs, good restaurants, stores and even small libraries. The best time for a Nile cruise is between October and mid April, when the weather is fairly cool. However, most cruise boats operate all year.

The Egyptian Red Sea is also a fascinating destination. Located between Asia and Africa, Red Sea has over the centuries attracted numerous people as it serves as a link between the East and West. The Red Sea receives thousands of scuba divers from around the world as well as visitors wishing to take vacations at the Red Sea coast.

The red sea coast runs from the Suez gulf in the North down to the Sudan border further south. The sea derives its name from the mineral-rich mountain ranges in it, which made ancient travelers name in Mare Rostrum. Throughout the year, thousands of migratory birds come to the red sea coast, making the place a haven for birdwatching enthusiasts. In the sea are also found over 800 fish species among them the deadly stone fish and the butterfly.

Another natural extension to a Nile luxury cruise or any other Egypt holiday activity would be a cruise in Lake Nasser, the world’s largest man-made lake. Lake Nasser, formed after the construction of the Aswan High dam in the 1960’s, is about 498.9 km long with depths of up to 600 feet. The lake was named after after the then president of Egypt - Gamal Abdel Nasser.

The two temples at Abu Simbel are some of the greatest attractions around lake Nasser region. Ranking alongside the great pyramids of Giza as Egypt’s top tourist attractions, the Abu Simbel temples represent an amazing engineering accomplishment. The temples were relocated from their original site to a higher ground during the construction of the dam, to prevent them from being submerged in the resultant lake Nasser.

Lake Nasser is also a haven for lovers of fishing as it has some of the best freshwater fishing in the world for both Nile perch and Tiger Fish.

Getting to Egypt and traveling within the country is relatively easy by flight. EgyptAir is one of the several airlines that operate flights to Egypt. Most international flights to Egypt land at the Cairo International Airport, while others arrive at the Sharm el Sheik airport. While a self explanatory map of Egypt is available, you may require a tour guide to help you move around and explore the country.

Common Sense Travel Tips

by Mary Bush

Eustachian tube, causing your ears to ‘pop’ or to experience a sensation of fullness. To equalize the pressure, swallow frequently; chewing gum sometimes helps. Yawning is also effective. Avoid sleeping during descent; you may not swallow often enough to keep ahead of the pressure change. If yawning or swallowing doesn’t help, use the ‘valsalva maneuver’:

1. Pinch your nostrils shut, then breathe in a mouthful of air.

2. Using only your cheek and throat muscles, force air into the back of your nose as if you were trying to blow your thumb and finger off your nostrils.

3. Be very gentle and blow in short successive attempts. When you hear or feel a pop in your ears, you have succeeded. Never force air from your lungs or abdomen (diaphragm); this can create pressures that are too intense.

Babies are especially troubled by these pressure changes during descent. Having them feed from a bottle or suck on a pacifier will often provide relief. Avoid flying if you have recently had abdominal, eye or oral surgery, including a root canal. The pressure changes that occur during climb and descent can result in discomfort.

If you have an upper respiratory or sinus infection, you may also experience discomfort resulting from pressure changes. Postpone your trip if possible. (Check to see if your fare has cancellation or change penalties.) A final tip on pressure changes: they cause your feet to swell. Try not to wear new or tight shoes while flying.

Alcohol and coffee both have a drying effect on the body. Airliner cabin air is relatively dry to begin with, and the combination can increase your chances of contracting a respiratory infection. If you wear contact lenses, the low cabin humidity and/or consumption of alcohol or coffee can reduce your tear volume, leading to discomfort if you don’t blink often enough. Lens wearers should clean their lenses thoroughly before the flight, use lubricating eye drops during the flight, read in intervals, and take the lenses out if they nap.

If you are permitted to buy bottled water and bring it on the plane (check before your fly), get the biggest bottle you can carry. Some countries don’t allow you to carry a bottle of water through the security checkpoint but you can purchase one in the terminal (at ridiculously higher prices). Even if you can buy the water at the terminal, doesn’t mean you can carry it onboard. Check, check and re-check.

If you take prescription medications, bring enough to last through your trip. Take along a copy of the prescription, or your doctor’s name and telephone number, in case the medication is lost or stolen. The medicine should be in the original prescription bottle in order to avoid questions at security or Customs inspections. Carry it in a pocket or a carry-on bag; don’t pack it in a checked bag, in case the bag is lost. Check with TSA on latest rules and regulations.

How to Find Great Vacation Deals

by Mary Bush

Deciding that you want to go on a vacation is all too easy. Actually booking the vacation and paying for it, however, is much more difficult. Vacation deals exist to help those who are looking for a cheap vacation to be able to afford to spend some time evading the real world. But how can you find vacation deals? Many people are not sure how they can find and use great vacation deals. Here are a few tips to help you to find vacation deals that will save you tons of money.

Book Sooner Rather Than Later

If you are going to go on vacation, you will get better vacation deals if you book sooner rather than later. By booking later, you are giving the hotel very little notice, which means that you will have to pay full price. Booking earlier lets them know that they will have your room booked, and they will know that they will have business. In order to thank you, they will often offer vacation deals that you may not have seen before. Whenever possible, book your vacation the soonest that you can.

Talk to a Travel Agent

In the day and age of electronics, many people are shying away from real travel agents to start booking their own vacations online using an online travel site. While these can sometimes get you great vacation deals, many people find that they have more trouble booking an online vacation than they would if they had gone to a travel agents. Travel agents make it in the business because they have connections that the average person does not have. Travel agents can often get you vacation deals that the average person would not be able to find.

Nepotism is Good

Do you know someone in the state or country that you are planning on visiting? If you do, there is always a chance that the person you know may be able to help you to get a great vacation deal. People who live in the area know the best places to stay, and many have connections that can get you a good deal on a room or on a vehicle.

Be Flexible

You want to start your vacation on a Friday or Saturday and end it on a Saturday or Sunday. So does everyone else. These are the most popular times to start and end vacations, and booking a vacation during that time means that you likely won’t be able to find any vacation deals. Instead, try booking your vacation during the slower times, like on a Tuesday or a Thursday. Also, try booking your plane flight during the late night or the very early morning, as these will help you to save money as well. You can find vacation deals in a number of places, especially if you learn to look outside of the average, everyday vacation itinerary and learn to look to solutions that you may not have thought of before.
