What is Included in the Egypt Tours 
And Some of What Makes Our Tours Different

• Private visits and special opportunities to be at the sites when the crowds are not there
  

• Because we travel in SMALL GROUPS* (limit of 20 persons) we can often accommodate special requests if you have something you particularly want to do or see -- a balloon ride at sunrise, donkey ride, or a rarely visited site?  We can usually make your dream come true.  And it may be even better than you dreamed!
  *Singletons' Sept 2009 tour has a larger group size.
