Yeah I heard as long as your with a group you wont get hassled too much by guys there. We are arriving the day before just to get settled in and everything. When the trip ends we are going to Alexandria for 3 nights. Do u know what the weathers like in oct?

I heard the weather is good in October, one of the better months to go, similar to May! Should be good. Are you staying at the Contiki hotel for the pre tour night?

Sweet, I get in at about midnight on the 17th, so get the whole day on the 18th, I think the welcome meeting is usually at night, so a good day to see some extra sights!

I am flying back to Vancouver on the 27th of October, so I will have the 25th and 26th to do some extra sighseeing..I would love to go Alexandria, as the tour doesn't go there and I read some postings and someone sugested going on the 18th during the day to see the Great Pyramids and Sphinx for some time, as the tour stop is quick there...Can't wait to meet everyone and have a great adventure!
