Egypt – An Unbeatable Value

The news is out: there’s never been a better time to visit Egypt. The value is exceptional. In fact, pricing at comparable destinations compared to Egypt is up to 30 percent higher. Those in the know tell me that prices are expected to increase quite significantly in October. That’s why we recommend that your clients travel now to take advantage of the available offers. Pricing starts at US $999/CA $1,349 for 5 nights, including all sightseeing and a 3-night Nile Cruise. The bestselling 9-day Classic Egypt starts at US $1,368/CA $1,826.

It’s not just the price that makes an Egyptian vacation such a compelling proposition. The pyramids are, of course, a must-see. However, they are just part of the multitude of sites that showcase Egypt’s 6,000 years of history. A Nile cruise should be included in every itinerary. The 3- or 4-night cruise itineraries include sightseeing with a qualified Egyptologist, on-board entertainment, and all meals. The range of boats covers all tastes and budgets, but the rule of thumb is to recommend a grade or two higher than your customers would typically choose.

The Red Sea resorts of Sharm el-Sheikh and Hurghada are great spots to unwind after touring. They offer world-class diving. If your clients aren’t divers, they can enjoy the beach, the warm waters, and the excellent facilities that most beach resorts offer.

Moira Smith

From a young age, Moira had the passion to travel. South African born, she has lived in San Francisco and Toronto, and her travel map includes over 55 countries. Moira’s heart still swings toward all things African, particularly Zambia’s Lower Zambezi National Park, the Grumeti Reserves in Tanzania, and Botswana’s Okavango Delta. Her first excursion outside of her African continent was at the age of 18 when she travelled through 16 countries in Europe, another destination that also pulls on her heart strings. Coming from Apartheid South Africa meant that every country required a visa. To this day Moira has never had an expired passport – space runs out before the validity does!
