British citizens will require a visa to enter Egypt. The current cost is US$25 (approximately £19). You can obtain your visa in advance via the Official Visa2Egypt portal - https://www.visa2egypt.gov.eg/eVisa/Home. You can apply on arrival  and make payment in Sterling, US Dollars or Euros but advise us if you plan to do so. Passports must be valid for six months beyond the return date to the UK and contain one blank page for the visa.

The transfer time from the airport to your hotel is approximately one hour.

Please note that the order of included day-to-day visits on board the cruise is subject to change.

If you have notified us of any special requirements, please check that they have been noted and acknowledged. This is especially important with any dietary needs you may have.

The majority of our tours involve a certain amount of walking, including a short walk from the coach stop to the town, attraction or venue you're visiting. 

For this tour specifically, it is important to note:

• Access to Nile cruise vessels is often difficult as there are steps down from the quayside and all ships have fairly narrow gangways.
• Level access in a wheelchair is not possible. Those with walking difficulties will, of course, be helped by the ship’s crew.

If you are bringing a wheelchair, please let us know at the time of booking so that appropriate arrangements can be made. In many developing countries access is sometimes not as easy as at home. Should you have walking difficulties, getting around monuments and attractions may be harder and, in some cases, impossible. Should you have any concerns whatsoever please do contact us prior to travel.

Should circumstances require, we reserve the right to accommodate you in alternative hotels, of a similar standard, nearby. Full details of your hotels will be sent with your Final Travel Documents.

In developing countries road networks are continually being improved and expanded, which can mean that, from time to time, roadworks and rough road surfaces can extend journey times. Some journeys are made on winding mountain roads and passes, which may also make for slow travelling - although the scenery is usually worth it! Many roads do not have separate pavements or safety barriers, and great care should be taken when crossing or walking alongside roads.

A complimentary small bottle of water or other soft drinks will be provided during lunch and dinner.
