We’ve had Egypt on the bucket list for a long time. This fall, Geeta (my wife) decided this would be the year we finally visit. Preparing for a trip to a place like egypt takes a lot of work and Geeta was up to the task.
Research
Geeta spent many hours on the internet finding information on all aspects of the trip from tips for travelers, to information about the sites, to reviews of travel agencies. It was several months of many hours per day she put into this.
Shopping
In advance of the trip we needed to have a number of specific items with us. Here are some of the things we added to our inventory:
- Money Belts
- RFID protection sleeves
- Travel Insurance
- Wipes
- Toilet Paper
- Zip Pants and Tactical Shirts
Things we missed
Warm clothes (it was much colder than we expected for December)
Travel Agent
Geeta worked with several separate travel agents before we decided on one:
Djed – they ran the Dahabiya cruise which was at the center of our itinerary
Hesham’s Recommendation
Others
Desert Operators
Germans
French
