- Yes — every package is a starting point. Tell us which cities you want more time in and we rebuild the itinerary and requote, usually within a few hours.
- Are internal flights included?
- Where the itinerary shows a domestic flight, the ticket is included in the price on economy class with 23kg of hold baggage. Overnight sleeper trains are offered as an alternative on request.
- How do I pay?
- Payment in full confirms the booking, or pay cash on arrival if you prefer. We accept Visa, Mastercard and Meeza, or cash to your guide on the day.
- What if I want a different hotel category in different cities?
- That is completely normal — many travellers take 5★ on the Nile cruise and 4★ in Cairo. Ask and we will price the mix.
