We plan a trip to Egypt 3/29- 4/6. We are interested in this "Best of Egypt 8-Days Package Cairo Pyramids, Nile Cruise, Balloon and Abu Simbel with Flights and Hotel From Cairo Airport". We are thinking the package starting on 3/29. But we note "The Nile Cruise departs from Luxor every Saturday, Monday or Thursday", which would be 3/30. It seems that we have to switch the Day2 Great Pyramid itinary to later days of the trip. We wonder if this rearrangement is possible. We will arrive Cairo 3/29 early morning around 6am, leaves Cairo late afternoon 6pm on 4/6. We also consider the alternative package, "4-Days 3-Nights Cruise From Aswan To Luxor Including Abu Simbel and Hot Air Balloon". We would like to hear your advice.

Yes, correct. The 5-Days 4-Nights Cruise from Luxor To Aswan should be on Monday 30th but Unfortunately, upon checking the availablity and price of the domestic flights from Cairo to Luxor on the 30th, we found the price is almost double the normal price. So, if your travel dates are flexible and you have the option to arrive Egypt on Friday, 27th.so we can start the 5-Days 4-Nights Cruise from Luxor To Aswan in this package on Saturday, 28th.March but if you have a strict travel dates, then there will be extra charge for flight tickets (only one way).

Can you send me information about an Alexandria add on after the tour ends on July 2. I intend flying out of Cairo on July 4 in the early morning. I would need two extra nights the 2nd and 3rd.

It is available to add the optional tour to the Grand Egyptian Museum GEM and Cairo Citadel for extra 70$ (approx 7 to 8 hours, excluding entrance fees or lunch) or day tour to Alexandria From Cairo with extra 110$ USD per person (approx 12 hours (3 hours driving each way, excluding entrance fees or lunch). The extra 2 nights at 4 star hotel in Giza or Cairo with breakfast with extra 130$ USD per night.
