FAQs related to this tour

Food is a great way to learn more about a destination. We try to keep meals flexible wherever possible; we include Bed & Breakfast accommodation rather than half or full board. This way you have flexibility to eat where and when you want, and to explore the culture and Egyptian cuisine. Our guides are always on-hand to make their recommendations, and of course you can choose to eat with all or some of your group or travelling companion or on your own. The choice is yours.
Everyone travels differently so we’ve graded our trips according to pace. Some travelers like to squeeze everything they can out of each day, while others like to have time to relax and enjoy the view. Our trips build in plenty of free time, with opportunity to immerse yourself in the local surroundings. 'Moderate' trips combine fuller days with some down time too, our trips include busy days and some early starts, but all trips are full of amazing experiences. We offer some optional tours activities if you feel you need some additional down time.
It has never been a problem, however you have to put up sometimes with annoying verbal harassment and this happens to egyptian women as well. The best thing is to ignore and go on. It can sometimes get really irritating but reacting does not work. There is nothing forbidden in egypt. You do not need to cover up or anything of the sort, yet to avoid drawing unnecessary attention to yourself, do please cover your shoulders and cleavage and do not wear shorts. It is just a matter of feeling comfortable and fitting in. Best footwear are sneakers as there is a lot of walking and it is dusty and sometimes the streets are in poor condition and dirty.
