Visa Requirements
You will need a 10 year passport, valid for 6 months from the date you enter Egypt, and a full Egyptian Visa. This may be obtained in advance from the Egyptian Embassy in your country, or upon your arrival in Egypt at the airport (go to the kiosk on your left as you enter the airport from the transfer coach, and before you pass through passport control). You will also need general travel insurance and dive insurance if required. Please contact us should you need any further information or assistance regarding this.

* Small First Aid Kit (including dehydration salts, paracetamol and mosquito repellent)
* Toiletries (travel size if possible)
* Day Pack (for your day requirements)
* Head Cover
* Walking Shoes and flip-flops / sandals
* Camera and Film (film may also be bought here)
* Loose cotton clothing (many layers work well)
