Dear Mrs Bluntman

Thanks for your enquiry about travel to Egypt later this year. It's a wonderfull destination and offers a variety of experiences for the visitor.

I recommend a flight to Singapore (with the possibility of a stopover) and then onto Cairo . A four star hotel in Dokkia - a leafy suburb in Cairo that allows easy access to the Pyramids, is reasonably priced. Three or four days in Cairo would be sufficent to see the main attractions. Other must sees in Egypt include

Luxor and the Valley of the Kings
Aswan and the opportunity to sail the Nile on a a felucca
Red Seasnorkeling

Australian visitors require a visa, which Freedom Travel can arrange on your behalf and it is advisable to take $US cash and travelers cheques.

Freedom Travel will happily organise your international and local Egyptian travel and arrange accommodation. If you would like to join an organised tour, we can make recomendations and take a booking on your behalf.

We look forward to asisting you with your travel plans.

Jane Hobbs
