THE LAND AND OUR DESTINATIONS
Egypt is a land of bountiful culture and endless energy, and it shows in the thousands of years of history preserved for us to visit and enjoy. From the pyramids of Cairo, to the wrecks of the Red Sea, to the desert tours, the monumental tombs and temples of Luxor, the lush Nile Valley – this is a land of so many contrasts and differences it’s tough to believe we can see so much of it in such a short time! But our tour is packed with efficiency, and trust me when I say, you won’t come home and wish you had seen something we didn’t.
We will be staying in a variety of quality accommodations at each stop on this tour, and the detailed itinerary below lists most of the resorts and hotels we will be visiting.
THE DIVING
The diving is, in a word – amazing. The Red Sea offers warm, clear waters, many species of fish and sea life not seen anywhere else, and it serves as the final resting place of many wrecks, a few intentional but most the casualties of war, accidents, or bad decisions. And the reef systems along both the inshore and offshore systems never cease to amaze. We will be diving off the shore, from zodiacs, and off the liveaboard to really round out the experience of every participant. The staff at each site is knowledgeable, helpful, and will ensure your experience is nothing short of first class.
TRAVEL WITH A PURPOSE
Through Indian Valley Travel and Indian Valley Scuba-s affiliation with several local Red Sea Projects as well as the local Youth Educational Foundation we will be making a monetary donation on behalf of our travelers to support their work. Additionally, we will encourage our travelers to pack some much-needed items and materials in tier luggage for us to present to these very appreciative and deserving souls there. We will be adding a link to the ‘Wish List’ shortly. Contact us for more details on how you can help, even if you are not joining us on this adventure.
