- Egypt is a Muslim country and the month of Ramadan is of major significance to its residents. During Ramadan, entertainment and alcohol will be restricted in most of the country. The sale of alcohol will be restricted in many places, although some establishments will offer alcohol for sale to tourists. During this period, local businesses may also have shorter opening hours.
- The tours include cultural stops at local workshops so you can learn about the production of traditional crafts.
- Mandatory payments and optional excursions are payable in cash once in Egypt.
- Triple rooms in Africa are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.
- Check-in time at the hotel on the day of arrival depends on each establishment, but in no case will it be before 3:00 p.m., unless otherwise indicated.
- The itinerary shown is for arrivals on Mondays and the order may be changed according to arrival date, but the listed contents and visits will always be the same. Please check with us for departures on other days of the week.
- For the dive in Alexandria, you don't need an official licence or diving certificate, as it takes place at a maximum depth of 8 metres and the monitor will give a short introduction to diving course.
- A clean bill of health is needed to take part in the dive, though. If you're undergoing any type of treatment or suffering from any kind of illness, please let us know in advance or check with us whether it is completely safe for you to do the dive.
- If you arrive at the hotel in Cairo after 10.00 pm, a cold buffet dinner will be served.
- Mandatory payments at destination (service fees and/or general tips) must be paid in cash.
- The order of the itinerary may be altered for logistical reasons, without prior notice, but no scheduled trips will be cancelled (except in the case that adverse weather conditions prevent its realisation).
- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.
- Prices are calculated based on admission fees to the sights as of the date of publication. If there is an increase in these prices, you will be promptly informed.
- If you are a person with reduced mobility, please contact us to confirm the suitability of the trip.
- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
