I think there are some on board, in each bathroom. <BR/><BR/>As for currency, I took lots of $1 bills to give to people as tips. They like pounds, too, but don't know what to do with coins. So it's a fiver or a tenner. You can get Egyptian currency quite easily there. The boat will change some. Remember to take a couple of CREDIT cards, rather than debit cards. They don't like those. <BR/><BR/>There are cashpoints in Luxor and Aswan and the welcome desk on the S.S. Karim will also change money. <BR/><BR/>Bon Voyage!Caroline Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07249424644829463560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246183.post-52477245630429639042008-03-22T19:43:00.000+00:002008-03-22T19:43:00.000+00:00Hi Caroline,We are doing the same trip as you this...Hi Caroline,<BR/><BR/>We are doing the same trip as you this May, couple of queries you might be able to help us with.
