Hi all, I just loved reading this thread as I am sooo excited
about going to Egypt next year I'll be there in mid Febuary which will be at the end of their winter which suits me fine (bc I already experience enough heat). I'm perfectly happy to be going on a tour as I think I'd prefer a little structure bc of the fact I haven't done much travelling in third world countries, only Bali, 20 odd years ago.
It includes a 4 night Nile cruise plus dinner evenings in Cairo with dancing (including a folkloric night) and a few free days to explore or shop plus loads of touristy options. it also includes a 3 hour workshop and I plan to do a private lesson or two on my free days. On day 13 we wind up in Dubai for two nights and one fantastic day to top off two wonderful weeks of Egypt.
even more excited after reading Shira's post on another thread, Lucky girl.
