      TravelerWritten December 2024

      I can't find any mention of the hot air balloon trip in the itinerary. Is this available/optional?

    • Egypt cruise travelOperatorWritten December 2024

      It's included in the itinerary

    • D

      Donald

      TravelerWritten December 2024

      We're thinking of spending a few days in Hurghada after the trip. Is this something you can organise, or perhaps we can leave the train at Luxor and take a bus instead of returning to Cairo.

    • Egypt cruise travelOperatorWritten December 2024

      Yes sure, We can book bus from Aswan to Hurghada. In Hurghada we can arrange Diving or Safari trip

    • D

      Donald

      TravelerWritten December 2024

      So could we exchange the return train journey for the bus trip? And have a hotel in Hurghada instead of in Cairo?

    • Egypt cruise travelOperatorWritten December 2024

      Sure I can change train to bus. And hotel in Hurghada will cost you extra 120$ for 2 nights
