Cairo: The Practical Guide
- Used Book in Good Condition
The guide described by The New York Times as â€œindispensable,â€ revised and updated for 2006, fills a vital niche for expatriates and Cairenes alike who need a helping hand to organizeâ€”and enjoyâ€” the challenges of a sojourn in Cairo. The basics of daily lifeâ€”finding a flat, transporting personal goods, investigating school options for children, navigating Egyptâ€™s famous bureaucracy, and the intricacies of feeding and clothing oneself and oneâ€™s family from the local marketâ€”are all detailed here. Advice gathered from a wide range of Cairo insiders, both native and foreign, gives the reader a cornucopia of current facts on prices, neighborhoods, product availability, work and business opportunities, and the dizzying range of cultural and leisure pursuits that Cairo is famous for.

The format of this edition addresses the needs of independently minded tourists as well as residents by the inclusion of: an A to Z directory of goods, services, and interests subdivided by neighborhood; a language section on the basics of Cairene Arabic; and details on shopping and sightseeing from a residentâ€™s perspective. Cairo: The Practical Guide, now in its fifteenth edition, is the key to deciphering the complexities of living, working, and enjoying life in one of the worldâ€™s most exciting and dauntingly complex mega-cities.
