This document will be sent to the party leader. Please check that all names are the same as shown in those persons’ passports, that dates and timings and all other elements of your trip are correct. The party leader is responsible for confirming all passport information of the party.

All enquiries, messages and information must be sent & received by our authorized email address. We will communicate with you by e-mail in relation to your booking. You must accordingly check your e-mails on a regular basis.

Once a customer has accepted the offer and a booking has been made, the prices are fully guaranteed and will not be subject to any surcharge. Djed Egypt Travel will book all the services and accommodation arrangements according to itinerary. The customer will then be sent confirmation letter/invoice detailing the total cost due.

Changing or cancelling a booking – by Djed Egypt Travel
We hope and expect to be able to provide our customers with all the services that we have confirmed. We plan and book the arrangements in advance of your holiday using independent suppliers, such as airlines, hotels, etc.…, over whom we have no direct control. Occasionally changes may have to be made, and therefore we reserve the right to make them. Most of these changes will be minor. However, we will ensure that you or your Travel Agent are advised of these changes as soon as is reasonably possible. A meaningful change includes a change in accommodation to a lower category and/or price, or a meaningful change of location. In the event of a meaningful change before your arrival in Egypt, we will inform you of all the possible alternatives.
Changes due to circumstances beyond our control
We reserve the right to change or to cancel your travel arrangements if we are forced to do so because of unusual or unforeseeable situations outside our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even with all due care. These include unavoidable technical problems with transportation, changes imposed by rescheduling or cancellation of flights by an airline or main charterer, the alteration of the airline or aircraft type, war or threat of war, civil conflict, industrial disputes, natural disasters, bad weather, epidemics or terrorist activity, and other types of force majeure.
Travel documents, health requirements and insurance
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the correct travel documents. Egypt requires visitors to have a visa. Please check with the nearest Egyptian consulate office for information concerning visas. In most cases you can obtain a visa upon arrival if you have a passport that remains valid for at least 6 months after the departure date from Egypt. About health requirements, please contact a specialist vaccination centre for details of the measures you will need to take prior to departure. It is important and we strongly advise you to take out sufficient insurance that it is adequate for your needs.
Dealing with complaints
In the unlikely event that you have any reason to complain or experience any problems whilst on tour, please bring it to the attention of our representative or the relevant supplier immediately who will endeavour to put things right. We will accept all responsibility if the cause is due to fault on our part, or that of our suppliers, regarding any part of the holiday arrangements booked and described in the itinerary, or that they are not of a reasonable standard. If a problem remains unresolved during your tour, please submit your complaint in writing to Djed Egypt Travel within 28 days of the completion of your tour. We will reply to you within 14 days of receipt of your letter. We are committed to improving the standard of our tours and it is only with the help of feedback that we will be able to achieve our aim. We would therefore appreciate it if you would send us your comments.
