Y-a-t'il un guide français au départ de Montréal et tout le long du voyage?
Je ne vois pas la visite du temple d'Abou Simbel. Est-ce que ce tour inclus cette visite ?
Merci

We are interested in the Sept 23rd departure from Montreal. What is the flight itinerary from Montreal to Cairo (departure time from Montreal, number of connections/plane changes, etc.). Also, if there is only one buy will it still be a confirmed trip? Thank you.

Our aim is to secure small groups of a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 24 persons for each departure. For instance our April departure was only 13 persons a small additional supplement was collected from each traveller in order to ensure the departure.

Thank you for the quick reply. If we do decide to "buy" this trip will my Visa be charged immediately or do you hold the reservation until closer to the departure date ?? Thanks again. Joanne

Bonjour,
Quelle est la date maximal pour atteindre les 20 personnes?.
Si l'on achète la promotion et il n'y a pas plus de 20 personnes pour le voyage, quand et comment nous serons remboursés.
L'achât doit se faire par l'intermediare de TeamBuy ou il peut être fait directement dans les bureaux de VoyagesRoutier.
Le guide est bilingue (anglais-français) ou (anglais-arabe) ou (arabe-français)?

Si le nombre 20 n'est pas atteint, il y aura un léger supplément à payer par participant de $ 110 (minimum 10 personnes) et le départ aura lieu comme prévu. Votre paiement doit se faire à Teambuy. Il va y avoir 2 guides : un guide anglais et un guide français. C'est ce qui a été fait pour les départs des mois d'avril et mai.

If the package is non-refundable what happens if the trip is cancelled because of low numbers? Also, you mentioned that in April a group of 13 paid extra to have the trip go ahead. How much extra did each person pay? Thank you

The extra charge for a smaller group is $ 110 (minimum 10) which is not a big deal. Despite the fact that you will enjoy much better the touristic services with a smaller group. On the other hand, if because of a force majeure situation WE are compelled to cancel, you will be refunded.

Of course we plan tours to Egypt for 2013 but not at such exceptional reduced rates, that is for sure.
We will be in a position to provide you , if you wish, with the land portion only.

Between the 20 required and 2 only to go there is a huge difference, our aim is not to cancel any departure, but we will decide of course ahead of time of the issue, for the definit comfort and welfare of our customers.

I think you have to verify on the web site of Teambuy if there are some previews, but we as operators, we check through personal contacts with each of our travellers about their comments, upon their return to Canada.

Bonjour,
Mes amis et moi avons essayé à plusieurs reprises d'acheter le forfait, dans differents ordinateurs et avec de differents cartes de crédit. Aucun d'entre nous a pu faire la transaction. Nous avons toujours le même message de reponse:
"Optimal Payment Gateway SOAP Error"
Nous avons verifié avec les banques et le site teambuy n'envoie pas la transaction. On a fait d'autres achâts sur le site et on a reussi, mais ce forfait est imposible de l'achêter. Je me demande si d'autres personnes ont eu le même problème ou s'il faut achêter seulement avec Paypal. Il reste que 24 heures pour la fin du forfait.

We took this trip in April and Voyages Routair was excellent. We were even surprisingly pleased with RAM. A wonderful trip organised by seasoned professionals. And Egypt itself is amazing. Everything was first class - cruise,hotels,meals,guides,transportation. It exceeded our exceptations. For the price, don' t hesitate to book this trip.

You are 2 persons sharing a double room, that is fine, the rate is $ 1995 you still have to decide for which date. Book through the Teambuy web site and if you have any difficulty you can call over the phone :1.855.832.6289 ext. 1 and a rep will assist you.

I understand that the price for a child under 11 is $1555. I'm wondering if there is a cheaper price for a child under 2. Usually airlines give the option of a lap seat opposed to them having to purchase their own seat and thus would it be less money?

Our quote for a child between 2 and 11 years is $ 1555 - The question is : do you have an infant under 2 years old that will be accompanying you for your trip to Egypt ?

I took the April trip as well. Our hotel and cruise boat were upgraded so was very good value for the money. Tourism is down in Egypt which is an advantage as there are no crowds at the wonderful ancient attractions. I definitely recommend it.

Hello,
I noticed that in the original email with all the offers, the Egypt deal has a price of 1555$, but once you click on the link, the price is on 1995$. Which is correct? Is there a special rate at the moment? Do you have a price guarantee when you post the wrong price?Thank you,

Hello Gandrea,
You will have to pay the $350 surcharge. You could could try to get in contact with the merchant to see if they have any other lone passengers who want to share a room. Their phone number is 1-877-331-3555. Have a great day!

We do not have for the time being a single person looking to share a room, not to miss the package you can book now, if the occasion occurs it will be good for you, otherwise you will have to pay the $ 350

Hi giys,
Very close to making the booking final, but wanted to check as to whether all the land tours( e.g. Aswan, Giza, Sphinx, etc are covered in the package price. I'm assuming from what I see, the only cost (other than spending money) that will be booking related , would be 3990 for two plus 52.00 for two Egyptian Visas. All airport/and transfer and taxes are included.

Hi Andre -- my husband and I are interested to attend -- we are younger (30) and had a few questions:
1) what's the general age group?
2) when you say 18 meals, are you including the breakfasts that the hotels are offering?
3) Do you know which hotel we are staying at (the 3* or 4*) at this point?
4) we would be interested in the sept trip from toronto -- when is the flight time, airline, and what are the connections?
5) we are concerned about safety there -- comments?
6) we have to purchase egypt VISA's??
7) We would like an extension before or after to kenya -- is that possible?
Thanks

Hello, here are my answers :
1) The total number of participants is not yet known,but the average age is +/- 40 to 50
2) the breakfast is considered as a meal of course
3) the President or Oasis or similar
4) our rate of $ 1995 is applicable for the departure of Montreal
5) we have had several departures for the last months and everything went on perfectly well and the travellers satisfied
6) you get very easily your egyptian visa at Cairo Airport
7) this is a group package, however we can study with the concerned airline the possibility of your extention, give me the city and dates.
Have a great day

It states sept or oct trip. Do we get to pick which date we want? Is it possible to buy cancellation insurance and normal insurance to cover any problems that may arise? Does someone suggest the type of clothing we should bring? How many luggage are allowed? I've noticed that there are 21 purchases, therefore must have one person going alone. I'm thinking of going but have no one to go with. I'm just worried to end up with a group with only couples. Is it possible to know what the mix is with this particular group? Two people going together could possibly be just girlfriends going together.
Thank you for your reply.
