Just Egypt, Or Egypt And Beyond ?

As director of operations for a world tour, I am often asked about Egypt as a destination for people who have more time available, he asks, we just do Egypt, or should we take in other neighboring countries as well? Here's my advice, if you have about 7 days, probably only looking in Egypt. A typical tour of this length will allow you to take in the important places in Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, the Egyptian Museum, Coptic Cairo and Khan Kallili the Bazaar. In this case we would like to see the Aswan High Dam and Philae Temple. Many customers also make a trip to Abu Simbel in the morning, decreasing to the point. Then its just a short train ride to Luxor, which shows the wonderful places like the Valley of the Kings, Valley of the Queens, the temples of Luxor and Karnak and, of course, is a beautiful place to take a Sailing in West Nile felucca. In my opinion, until they saw the sunset on the Nile, as it cruises along in the pride of traditional fisheries have not lived! If you are in a situation in which he said that 10 days, so you could look at this, plus a short trip to Jordan to take in the sites in Petra. Petra is wonderful and deserves the 48 to 72 hours will have to invest to add to your trip to Egypt. Once you start talking about 14 days, and then a series of options open to you. It will surely be able to do everything mentioned above with regard to Egypt and probably can do a lot of Luxor and Aswan by a Nile cruise if you want and the way Jordan or Israel could also include one or two days on the coast Red Sea somewhere, like, Hurghada, Sharm el Sheikh and Dahab. So now you have more time to finish in Egypt and Jordan becomes a definite possibility. In Jordan, you can traverse from the Sinai (Egypt) or by land or, as many do, with the ferry to Aqaba. From here it is more like a trip south to north and definitely should look like a jeep safari in Wadi Rum, Petra one day, a visit to the Dead Sea, plus some time in Amman, of course. Of course, there is great opportunity you can get roundtrip flights in and out of the Cairo International, but this is not a problem. You can start your journey to get to Cairo to Amman to finish and then take a short flight between Amman and Cairo to return home and let fly. Israel can also be easily added to an ITIN Egypt and once again, can reach Israel in Sinai (Egypt) Taba and make your way to the Israeli town of Eilat. This is the perfect place to begin the part of Israel that Egypt and Israel adventure. Once you have relaxed and ready to venture north and take in the taste of the Dead Sea, Bethlehem, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Finally, like Jordan, if you've finished the tour in Tel Aviv, is a short trip to Cairo to catch your flight home.
