Creator's Key Takeaways

it never crossed my mind that I would have to sleep on the bathroom floor on my Amma waterways Nile river cruise

the absolute best sites were on the cruise itself at the start in Luxor we visited the Valley of the Queens

the vendors are pushy they get in your face and are incredibly persistent

I found traveling in the emerald ways kind of bubble alleviated most of that because we always had someone with us to Shepherd us around

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Book midship cabins to avoid engine noise
โœ“Use hand gel and bottled water to avoid upset stomach
โœ“Aim to pay only about 30% of initial vendor asking price
