*~ Hey, everyone!! My best friend & I are both 26 year old females from NY & we just booked the April 10, 2009 Egypt tour!! We're really excited to go and we're hoping that maybe some of you reading this will let us know who else is going to be on tour with us!! Looking forward to hearing from you/meeting you as well ~*

I am also excited to say that I am also going to Egypt on the 10th of April. I am a 29 year old female from upstate New York. I teach for a living and cannot wait to spend my spring break exploring.

Hi, Karen!! My best bud is named Jill & she is also a teacher (5th grade) & my name is Jackie & I'm in my fourth/final year of medical school. Yes, sadly, you heard correctly - best friends named Jack & Jill =P. We are both from the southern part of NY - I'm currently living in Long Island. We're very excited to have another New Yorker traveling with us! And I'm eagerly awaiting our other travel companions to respond here

Hi everyone,
I just booked onto this tour today. My name is Abbey and I'm from Christchurch, New Zealand. I'm 23 and a preschool teacher. What date is everyone planning on arriving in Cairo? At this stage i'm travelling on my own but may have a friend joining me. Hope to hear from you soon and look forward to meeting you all in April :-)

hi everybodoy.

I am also booking this trip. I am a 30years brazilian and liv in germany.
I am thinking about going to some place on the beach for a couple of days after this trip. I have heard that there are some very nice places on the red sea. if someone is also interested we can book a group trip also. Hurghada and Sham el Sheikh are very nice

see you there!!

Hi Everyone! My husband and I just booked this trip as well. We are really looking forward to meeting everyone. We have been on several contiki trips in the past and always have a lot of fun! We, too, are from NY and I work in education. Looks like we will be a bunch of teachers on the trip! Cant wait to get to egypt!

does anyone know how the boat trip is? will we have a boot just for the 8 of us?

Hello , i was on this exact trip 26dec 2008 - jan 2009 it was the greatest thing ive ever done and would like to do this tour again its that good. you are going to enjoy yourselves alot. make the most of the trip and do as much as possible.

Hi, everyone. I am pretty sure I will be booking this trip sometime this week. I will be traveling solo, so I would like to chat with some other travelers before I go. Karen- will you be solo as well? I will be coming from New Orleans. Who wants to pal around with me?

Hi everyone. I just booked the trip today. My name is Jeff, I live in western NY. Like many others I see, I am also a teacher.

Hi everyone,
It seems like this tour is slowly starting to fill up. What date is everyone arriving in Cairo? I'm arriving late on 8th April. What are everyone's plans for after the tour.:-)

Abbey- I will be returning home after the tour, but was thinking about getting in a day early. I just don't know where to stay for that extra night. Any suggestions?

I just booked a couple of nights pre-tour accomodation with Contiki at the same hotel the tour departs from which is Oasis Hotel. It just seemed easier that way than shifting around.

I arrive on the 8th abbey and am also staying at the Oasis hotel. Im looking into doing a day tour up to Alexandria on the 9th as well if anyones interested?
