Egypt is the land of Baksheesh: To save you the stress of constantly giving tips on board, your local tour guide collects an amount of €8 per person per night on the boat, depending on the ship's category, at the beginning of the trip. This sum is used for all the "good spirits" who make your holiday as pleasant as possible and is considered a recommendation from us.
