While a little out of date (a year or so), this book proved itself very useful on a recent trip to Cairo.My travelling companion and I looked it over on the plane ride and used it as a springboard for selecting places we wanted to visit, planning our day trips effectively, and making sure we weren't committing any cultural faux pas. While I'm sure it didn't help us blend in, it did help us have fun and ensure we weren't missing important sites. It was also nice to have something we could consult without pulling out our cell phones.The only thing missing (and the reason I knocked off a star) is it lacked comprehensive maps. A few pages at the end of detailed maps of Khan El Khalili, the area near the Egyptian Museum, and Zamalek especially would have been very helpful. There are rough sketches in those sections of the book, but adding every street would have been a great help.The book is small enough to fit comfortably in a medium sized purse. During the day I brought water, my cell phone, money, passport, my camera, toiletries, and a power bank and the book never got in the way.
