We seemed to have quite a few people disappointed that they missed out on the Red Sea trip next April. I have called the owner of the boat and put a temporary hold on it for the very next week April 27th - May 4th. Our original trip is already sold out, but this is another opportunity for you to go on the trip as well. The only thing is, we need to secure deposits from everyone interested in going by Friday at the absolute latest or we will have to release our temporary reservation on it. We will also need to get deposits from at least 10 people to hold the boat. The itinerary for this trip is going to be different than the original. We will still leave out of Hurghada (HRG) but we will sail south to finish out trip at Port Galib instead of arriving back at the Hurghada port.
From Port Galib they will transfer us via air conditioned bus back to Hurghada airport where we can fly to Cairo, and take part in the three day Cairo tour for anyone who is interested. The cost for the Cairo tour will be the same as the previous offered trip at $395 per person. It includes the same itinerary, hotel accommodations, meals, and guided tour.
The Southern route that the yacht will take is suppose to be nicer than our earlier trip as far as coral reefs go. We will not see as many ship wrecks, but the reefs and marine life are suppose to be spectacular on this route.
The cost for this route is slightly more because it is covering a larger area of the Red Sea. Pricing below is per person, two people to a room. Below is the number of each room type available. There is no discount for non-divers. Pricing does not include any airfare.
- 2 Bunk Rooms $1450
- 4 twin bed cabins $1495
- 2 Honeymoon Suites $1575
- 1 Executive Suite $1625
TWD is not booking any flights from the US to Egypt for this trip. We will book all of the round trip flights from Cairo down to Hurghada. We are not sure the exact cost of this, but we are estimating it to be around $100 per person.
Other misc fees are:
- Egyptian Visa $25 paid by you upon arrival in cash
- Tips to tour guides and boat crew
- optional $15-$25 entry into special rooms in pyramids and museums paid in cash
- optional Nitrox for the week of diving $45 payable to TWD
- Marine Park fee $50 payable to TWD
Please refer to previous Red Sea email for links to the ship for more info, and for an outlined tour itinerary. You can also call the shop for more info.
$1030 Deposit per person required by Friday June 15th to secure your spot on the boat. Save 3% by paying your deposit in cash or check. If we do not secure enough deposits, we will have to release our hold on the boat, and deposits will be refunded. Once the boat is secured deposits will not be refunded.
