Africa & Middle East - September 2006

I will be organising the flights myself. Need some advice e.g. on reliable local travel agents in SA who could help me to put a good sightseeing package together, with self-driving, good itinerary, comfortable, but not too expensive hotels. I want to avoid unnecessary middle-men and would like to explore the country rather than just spend time lying on a beach or being hearded with a group of 20 or so shop-craving strangers on package holidays...:-)

Hi, I hope someone can help. I have booked a tour for 10 people with a local tour company in Cairo called Bliss Tours. As a requirement, they need a deposit to be transferred to them by Western Union. I am worried about fraud and transferring money blindly. Hence, I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with this travel company. If yes, please help as I really need advice regarding the reliability of this company and whether a money transfer is a safe with this company. Thanks in advance!

I've been getting a thumbs-down for almost every answer I gave. Even if it is a good answer. And I have also noticed that you guys are getting the same. Who is targeting the South Africans on this site?

What the life in Dubai for foreign women is like?
I had a transfer offer from my boss to the branch office in Dubai. I am Japanese, and works for Japanese company (do office work).
I had never been to Middle East before, and I have NO idea what the life there is like. Especially for women, is it difficult? Or is it nice place to work also for women as many people say in this web?
If you are female, please tell me from your experience. If you are male, please tell me what you think with your point of view seeing foreign women around you.
I also have some worries like; can I make friends there? Do I need a car to live in Dubai? etc etc...
