Egypt is the land of "baksheesh" (tipping): To spare you the stress of constant tipping on board, your local tour guide will collect an amount of 7 € per person per night on the boat at the beginning of the trip, depending on the ship's category. This sum is used for all the "good spirits" who make your holiday as pleasant as possible and is considered a recommendation on our part.
