    Evelyn

    Asked on January 18th, 2026

    I would like to know why is there a price difference of $2,760 between this tour (#162721: $4,857) and #161837 ($2,097) other than 4 days of land tour in Cairo, hotel included, plus a domestic ticket from Cairo to Luxor. The huge price difference does not seem very fair to me. Also could you also provide me with the available dates for this tour (also $161837) in February pls?
