Among the Egyptian dishes, you can easily find meat, fish and seafood dishes alongside vegetarian and vegan dishes. Some traditional Egyptian dishes you may experience are: ful medames, falafel, grilled fish with noodles and rice, seafood, mahshi, kushari, Egyptian pizza (also known as feteer), and Molokhia soup.

Sweets are where Egyptian cuisine really shines. A popular dessert in Egypt is rice with milk, um Ali, but the best Egyptian sweets are all kinds of cakes including baklava, kunafa, basbousa, and zalabia.

One of the best ways to get to know the flavors of Egypt is through juice shops. Freshly squeezed juices from oranges, sugar cane, pomegranate, Indian tamarind, lemon and many other fruits are a perfect way to feel refreshed after a day of sightseeing.

Question 9

Visit Jordan as Part of our Tour Add-ons

Accepted Answer

It is worth extending your trip to include a tour of Middle Eastern Jordan.

Jordan is a fairy-tale desert land where modernity intertwines with the tradition of the Orient. A place where you can easily find both Turkish kebab and Arabic harissa. Considered the most European of the Arab countries, it is a very friendly place for tourists to visit. Majestic Petra, the queen of the desert, is centuries old and enchanted in stone, which, depending on the time of day, shines with all shades of pink, red and purple. It's hard to believe that these wonders were hidden until 1812! In the desert of Wadi-Rum you can admire the most beautiful desert landscapes in the world and see rocky mountains the color of ocher, with bizarre shapes and angles. Madaba will fascinate you with its mosaics, and the views from Mount Nebo to the Promised Land are delightful. Our Jordan 5-day add-on begins and ends in the capital of Jordan, Amman. In Amman, you can experience the Roman theater, the citadel with a view of the old city, the Umayyad palace, the temple of Hercules, and the Abbasid tower. The Dead Sea is a must-visit place in Jordan as it is a spa for both body and soul. Bathing in the Dead Sea is an amazing experience, and even people who can't swim float on the surface of the water.

The Jordan 5-day add-on can be purchased when registering for any of our Egypt tours. A five-day trip to Jordan costs $3655 per person for a double room, and the deposit is $500 per person during the booking process. Full payment is then due 90 days before the tour. A single supplement costs $1265 if you would prefer a private room.

The benefits of our Jordan 5-day add-on are: experiencing a different culture, visiting new places, and diversifying your vacation. Our Egypt and Jordan Tours offer older travelers a unique opportunity to explore two fascinating countries in just one trip.

Question 11

Vaccination and Other Health Concerns

Accepted Answer

Egypt does not require vaccinations from seniors on vacation. However, it is important to properly prepare yourself for travel. Take lightweight clothes made from natural materials in bright colors, a hat with a large brim, sunglasses, and comfortable shoes. A face sun cream with a high SPF (for example, SPF 50) will be useful. If you take medications regularly, remember to take them with you, but only in the quantity that will be needed during your trip. If you take prescription medications, bring a copy of your prescription with you when entering Egypt. Also, remember to take medical accessories that you use on a daily basis.

Before going to Egypt, and continuing throughout your stay, consume products rich in natural probiotics such as kefir, sour milk, buttermilk, yogurt, acidophilic milk, sauerkraut, and pickled cucumbers. You can also choose products in the form of capsules or powder for the preparation of suspension, and drops. You can buy these in local pharmacies. These products increase the positive intestinal microflora in your body. Such behavior can effectively prevent the so-called "travelers' diarrhea". During your stay, you should wash your hands often and drink a lot of bottled water at room temperature. Avoid ice cold drinks as these could upset your stomach. The temperature in the air-conditioned hotel rooms and the cabin on the ship should be set between 21 ° C to 25 ° C. This will ensure your rooms are comfortable and you will not catch a cold.

Make sure that you have the appropriate travel insurance required for your trip. This will help you quickly deal with the consequences of any unpleasant, unexpected events such as luggage loss, illness, or accidents. In this situation, a good insurance policy may prove to be invaluable on your Egypt tour.

If you use the above Egypt travel tips for the perfect vacation, your Egypt vacation will be satisfying and you will remember the best Egypt private tours for many years to come.
