Trip Report Red Sea trip report - Red Sea Aggressor - December 5-12, 2015

[scubadada]

Thanks. We are actually on the aggressor for a week. Looking for top side tour info.

Hey scuba nube,

I assume you already looked at the Aggressor website LiveAboard Vacations, A Division of Aggressor Fleet and Dancer Fleet I booked land transport and hotel through them for an upcoming dive trip, very efficient. They have hotel/tours for Luxor and Cairo, could probably assist with air travel also.

I would imagine you could do land tours on either end of the trip. My wife and I recently did 2 weeks in Egypt, several days in Cairo, rest on a boat between Luxor and Aswan. We flew EgyptAir Cairo to Luxor and back, they were excellent. We also flew them Aswan to Abu Simbel and back, this was the highlight of highlights for our trip. I'm sure you could fly between Hurghada, perhaps Marsa Alam, and both Luxor and Cairo. As you will already be in Egypt, unless you've already seen it, would be a shame to miss out. It's very uncrowded now, a real shame for the country, our group of 8-10 was often nearly alone at the temples and pyramids. Weather should be good late Nov, we were there early Feb. Summer would be really, really hot.

Best of luck, Craig

do you remember the name of your land tour operator? We are booked on the Agressor in late Nov but having issues organizing tours
