Gary’s Q&A

Listener question & Gary’s response · Transcript passage

Connie Faour Carroll asks Have you ever been on a river cruise! If so, which river? If not, which river would you choose first? I would choose the Nile. (submitted from a 6th grade Social Studies teacher).

Yes, I have, but I’ve only done one, and that was on the Nile River. I went by train from Cairo to Luxor and then back up via a river boat, which took several days. Along the way, we stopped at some smaller temples that most people never get to visit, particularly the Edfu and Kom Ombo Temples.

I’ve never done a river cruise in Europe, but I’ve been to many cities where riverboats dock in the middle of town.
