Egypt Trip Itinerary

Hey everybody,

Wanted to give you a quick update on our trip details to Egypt. Sam, Justin, and I are leaving Tel Aviv tonight (April 4) and taking a 4-5 hour bus to Eilat. Eilat is a premiere beach resort town with dolphins, coral reefs, etc. so we are planning on having a relaxed first day before we set out tomorrow evening to Cairo. The bus to Cairo from Taba, Egypt, the border city across from Eilat, is about 6-8 hours so we expect to get in very early Monday morning. In Cairo, the highlights will be seeing the Pyramids at Giza and the Egypt Museum. After three days and two nights in Cairo we take a 10-hour train down to Luxor, an entire area with historic religious and Egyptian monuments, tombs, and basically everything else that is a testament to Egypt's history. From there our plans get fuzzy as we may spend two or three days in Luxor. After Luxor we will going back, spending one more day and night in Cairo and then moving on the Sinai peninsula. I may be heading back home after that depending on what day it is or will stay with Sam and Justin to climb Mt Sinai. That's all I got for now...if possible I may be updating here and there from Egypt, but if not you'll hear from me within a week.

Take Care,

Pavel
