Cancellation and Amendment Terms

Tour Information

Special Notice

1. This is a destination-based international group tour. Provided that the promised services and standards remain unchanged, different vehicles and guides may serve you on different days. You may share a vehicle with other guests, and guests arriving on the days before or after yours, or following the same itinerary, may be regrouped and travel together in a different order. Without reducing the number of attractions, the tour operator and guide may make appropriate itinerary adjustments based on weather, traffic, or other conditions (such as the order of the itinerary or sightseeing, timings, and flights). Please be advised.

2. Under local Egyptian policy, the Chinese-speaking guide and English-speaking assistant on this tour are both Egyptian locals. They are professional and welcoming, and most have religious beliefs. Please respect their beliefs, lifestyles and food culture during the tour. No Chinese-speaking guide or vehicle is provided during free time. The English-speaking assistant can go to the hotel to help if needed. Some transfers and domestic flights may be accompanied only by an English-speaking assistant or driver.

3. We recommend exchanging US dollars in advance or at the airport. US dollars in cash are preferred locally in Egypt; euros in cash are also accepted. The guide uses WeChat, so you can also pay in RMB via WeChat. If you exchange money for Egyptian pounds, you may not be able to buy admission tickets (some guides can help purchase them, but accept only US dollars, euros, or RMB). Cruise tips are accepted only in US dollars or euros. Apart from paying to use the restroom, Egyptian pounds have limited use on a short trip of just a few days, so you do not need to exchange any.

4. Nile cruise facilities may differ from those of hotels and those in developed areas. Cruises departing on different days may have different facilities, equipment, conditions, and surroundings. As the cruise ships operate on the river for long periods, rooms may be damp and may have some odor. The engines can also be loud, and some rooms may be affected by engine noise while the ship is underway (the noise is quieter at night, but this issue cannot be completely avoided). Rooms are assigned at random at check-in. We recommend asking the cruise ship reception to arrange a room away from the engine or in a quieter area, but this cannot be guaranteed; actual arrangements will apply.

5. Egypt is still a relatively underdeveloped developing country. Due to local economic conditions, transportation, hotel services and facilities, dining, and other aspects may fall short of those in developed cities. Local five-star hotels may be comparable to four-star hotels in China. Some hotels also have fairly basic facilities because they opened or were renovated a long time ago. Most of the hotels we regularly work with are not in city centers. Thank you for your understanding.

6. Tipping is customary in Egypt. People may ask for tips for using public restrooms, hotel porters, restaurant staff, and similar services. This is unrelated to our company. Please respect local customs and be prepared for this before your trip.

7. This tour has no mandatory shopping requirements or arrangements (excluding shopping opportunities at attractions, on cruise ships, and other places not organized by our company). The guide may recommend local specialty shops, such as papyrus and essential oil shops. If you are not interested, please decline directly. If other tour members wish to shop, the group may make a stop. Thank you for your understanding.

8. During special holidays (such as May Day, National Day, Christmas, and Chinese New Year) or the peak season, cruise cabin availability may be limited. The guide may be on a different cruise ship from the tour members, or some tour members may be assigned to another ship. However, the guide will arrange to explain the relevant temple attractions (Kom Ombo Temple and Edfu Temple) during the ships’ stops. We appreciate your understanding of any inconvenience this may cause.

9. If a guest is late or misses an activity for personal reasons, they will be deemed to have voluntarily forfeited that activity. Guests may not leave or separate from the group without the consent of the guide or travel agency. If consent is granted, you must sign a Group Departure Liability Form and are responsible for your personal safety and belongings during that period. No refunds will be provided in any of these circumstances. Guests shall bear responsibility for any personal safety issues and additional expenses that result.

10. The destination may have privately operated entertainment and shopping venues with varying levels of licensing and safety standards, posing various risks. For your safety and health, please exercise caution when spending money at these venues. During free time, do not go out on your own with anyone outside the tour operator or visit dangerous areas. While you are away from the tour, we cannot ensure your safety or accept responsibility for any issues arising from other activities you take part in or from being in dangerous areas. Please take care of your personal safety when going out or participating in optional activities. Do not take part in high-risk activities such as camel riding. We cannot ensure your safety while you participate in such activities. Please be advised.

11. Meals listed as included in the itinerary may be served at different locations or to different standards depending on the actual circumstances and group size, provided that the number of meals is not reduced. No refund will be given if you choose to forgo a meal. The buffets listed in the itinerary are provided by hotels or cruise ships and generally do not include drinks or alcoholic beverages; please pay for these yourself if needed.

12. The local guide may recommend optional activities for this product, usually as packages. You can choose whether to participate according to your needs; there is absolutely no compulsory spending. Please confirm that you understand the activities before booking and paying. Once confirmed, they cannot be canceled or changed.

13. Traffic conditions in Egypt are poor. City traffic is often congested, and drivers generally have poor driving habits. If the driver drives unsafely or speeds, please promptly point this out. If there is a problem, contact us promptly to help prevent risks and danger.

14. Egypt is relatively safe and has a fairly good public security situation. However, keep valuables with you in hotels and crowded places, and take care of your belongings while traveling. When leaving the vehicle to sightsee, dine, shop, or for other purposes, please ensure the vehicle doors and windows are locked and keep your valuables with you. The tour operator accepts no responsibility for items that are lost or stolen;

15. During your trip in Egypt, local police may conduct random passport checks. The English-speaking airport assistant will also ask to see your passport to verify your name. Before departure, check that your passport is valid and that you have the correct type of visa. You must carry a valid passport with you on the tour. If a traveler does not bring a valid passport, the guide may refuse to accept them or remove them from the tour;

To best protect your interests, please carefully read our Booking Information and Terms of Liability. This document contains important information for outbound tour members and forms part of the travel contract, together with our Overseas Travel Safety Guidelines and Other Important Information. Our company reserves the right to interpret all content on this website.

(1) Booking Process and Important Notes

Anyone booking through this website must carefully read all terms published on our company website, in the order confirmation, and in the tour notice before departure. After you submit an order, we will consider this confirmation that you have fully agreed to all terms published by our company. If any tour member violates the rules stated in these terms, they will be responsible for all resulting consequences.

1. When booking, first complete the booking form on the website. Carefully enter and check all information, including names, gender, ID or passport numbers, contact details, required room type, and pickup and drop-off points. The company accepts no responsibility for losses resulting from incorrect information entered by the customer. Once your submission is successful, the company will send you a booking confirmation. As seats on tour buses are limited, we will prioritize tour assignments according to when payment is received. The vehicle will be assigned based on the group size, with one seat guaranteed per person. After checking that all information is correct, please arrange payment within the validity period of the booking. If the tour fee is not paid in full by the deadline, you will be considered to have withdrawn from the tour, and we reserve the right to cancel your booking without further notice.

2. Group members must pay 100% of the tour fee at least five business days before departure. As coach seats and hotel rooms are limited and hotel reservations often have deadlines, anyone booking within five business days of departure must promptly complete payment. Otherwise, our company reserves the right, depending on the circumstances, to hold or cancel the booking without first obtaining the applicant’s consent. The payer is responsible for any fees incurred by paying the tour fee by any method. After payment, please send proof of payment (the transaction slip for a bank-counter transfer or a screenshot of the successful online transfer) to our company by email or fax. Be sure to include the relevant booking number on the proof; otherwise, our finance team will be unable to match the payment to the booking. If, because payment was made late, the tour fee has still not reached us two days before the end of the tour, our company reserves the right to require the group member to deposit the equivalent amount in cash with the tour guide. If it is later confirmed that the payment was made twice, our company will promptly refund the excess amount.

3. Once our company confirms receipt of a participant’s payment, we will confirm their place on the tour. Five days before departure, participants will receive a tour confirmation notice at the email address provided during registration. It will include information such as the guide, itinerary, and pick-up and drop-off points. Due to network delays or spam filters, participants may not receive the notice five days before departure. If this happens, please contact the relevant staff for assistance.

4. We will arrange room types according to guests’ requests. In special circumstances, such as during peak travel seasons, room types may change due to a shortage of rooms at a particular hotel or other circumstances beyond our control. Tour members must cooperate with our arrangements. If the room arrangements on arrival do not meet a tour member’s requests because they entered the wrong gender or room-type requirements when booking, our agency will coordinate and make arrangements based on room availability at the hotel that day. Any additional costs incurred will be borne by the tour member.

5. If a tour member needs to leave the tour early due to special circumstances, they must notify us when booking or before joining the tour and sign an “Early Departure Declaration.” For each night of accommodation not used after leaving early, €16 will be deducted (or €30 per unused night if a single room was booked for the entire tour). There is no reduction in the tour price if no hotel nights are missed. If a tour member requests to leave the tour early during the trip, they must inform the guide and sign an “Early Departure Declaration.” Fees already paid are non-refundable. Tour members must provide accurate information about their health, identity, and other relevant matters when booking and during the trip, complete all related forms truthfully, and follow legal procedures. Tour members are responsible for any costs and losses arising from personal reasons, such as feeling unwell during the trip. Travelers with a significant medical history (for example, a serious or terminal illness, or a communicable disease) must disclose this truthfully when booking. In view of a traveler’s health or other circumstances, our company reserves the right to decide whether to accept their booking.

6. Tour members aged over 70 must be accompanied by a family member and complete the “Tour Participation Declaration.” If they insist on joining without a family member, our company reserves the right to refuse their booking at its discretion. Tour members are responsible for all consequences arising from their own actions during the trip.

7. Pregnant travelers must disclose their pregnancy when booking. As a general rule, travelers who are more than 24 weeks pregnant are not advised to join the tour. Those who insist on joining must be accompanied by a family member and complete a Liability Waiver; however, our company reserves the right to refuse their participation depending on the circumstances. Those who are less than 24 weeks pregnant and insist on joining must also be accompanied by a family member and complete a Tour Participation Declaration; our company likewise reserves the right to refuse their participation depending on the circumstances. Travelers shall bear full responsibility for any consequences arising from their own actions during the trip.

8. Minors joining the tour must be accompanied by at least one adult who will act as their guardian and be responsible for their safety. Tour members shall bear full responsibility for any consequences arising from a minor’s own actions or from inadequate supervision by their accompanying adult during the trip.

9. Tour members must ensure that all information provided for the tour is accurate, especially personal identification details and contact telephone numbers. Tour members shall bear all consequences resulting from inaccurate information, such as being unable to cross a border because personal identification documents have expired or the visa type does not meet the destination country's entry requirements, or the guide and other relevant staff being unable to contact a tour member because an incorrect mobile number was provided. Any resulting personal return travel costs, transportation costs, travel expenses, and other losses shall be borne by the tour member.

10. Please do not book any flights or other tickets related to the tour before your booking is confirmed. If you book flights or other tickets related to the itinerary at your own discretion but are ultimately unable to join the tour, you will be responsible for all resulting losses.

(5) Responsibilities

1. Our company reserves the right to change accommodation, routes, sightseeing attractions and departure dates as necessary, depending on the circumstances.

2. If there are too few participants, or changes occur beyond our control, such as problems with a ship or aircraft, our company reserves the right to change or cancel the itinerary. If the itinerary is cancelled, we will refund all fees paid by group members or recommend a similar replacement product. Our company is not liable for cancelling any itinerary.

3. In the event of civil unrest, terrorist activity, a major infectious disease outbreak, natural disasters, riots, murder, rebellion, war, or other disasters beyond our control that may seriously endanger the personal safety of tour participants, as well as unexpected circumstances such as weather, traffic, or strikes, our company reserves the right to cancel or replace any tour activity before or after departure, and to shorten or extend the trip, provided participants are notified in advance. We accept no responsibility for any resulting additional expenses or losses, and participants may not object or withdraw on these grounds.

Our company accepts no responsibility for losses arising from onward travel arrangements made without sufficient buffer time.

Important Information for Tour Members

Overseas Travel Safety Information and Other Important Notes

To best protect your interests, please carefully read our Overseas Travel Safety Guidelines and Other Important Information. These guidelines contain important information for outbound tour members and form part of the travel contract, together with our Booking Information and Terms of Liability.

(1) Helpful Tips

1. Most attractions offer student discounts. Students are advised to bring an International Student Card.

2. Plug standards vary between countries. Please bring suitable plug adapters if needed.

3. Egypt is an Islamic country, so please respect local religious beliefs and customs. Women should avoid wearing overly revealing clothing, and couples should avoid intimate gestures such as embracing in public.

4. Alcohol is not prohibited in Egypt, but drinking spirits in public places is not recommended.

5. Photography is prohibited in sensitive areas such as government offices and military facilities. Do not photograph women without their permission. Ask for permission before taking photographs in mosques or museums.

7. Tipping is very common in Egypt. Tips are generally given to service staff, tour guides, and drivers.

(2) Safety Information

Clothing

1. Weather can change quickly, so be sure to bring rain gear and a warmer jacket.

2. Please look after your belongings and luggage. Our company accepts no responsibility for loss or theft.

3. Clearly label your luggage with your name and contact details for identification and to facilitate its return if found. If your luggage is lost, promptly notify the relevant organizations (such as the hotel or airline) and report it to the police. If it is ultimately not recovered, keep the police report to make a claim with the relevant organization or insurance company (if you purchased insurance).

Meals

1. The guide will do their best to help group members who need it arrange Chinese group meals. If the number of diners is too small to qualify for a group meal, or a Chinese meal cannot be arranged due to holidays, opening hours or other reasons (such as there being no Chinese restaurant in a small city), the guide will do their best to help arrange fast food, Western food, or meals at a supermarket or hotel. If meals arranged due to the itinerary cannot meet the requirements of all group members, we ask for your understanding. We recommend bringing bottled water and snacks in case of need.

2. Do not drink unsafe water or eat unhygienic, spoiled or bad-smelling food. When visiting areas with poor sanitation, choose thoroughly cooked food and packaged drinks.

3. Do not accept or consume cigarettes, food, or drinks offered by strangers.

4. To prevent travel-related illness, bring any commonly used or regular medications. Travelers with chronic illnesses should carry their medical records in case they are needed. Never take medication provided by someone else without permission.

5. Our agency does not provide or arrange alcoholic drinks. Tour members who wish to drink must strictly limit their alcohol consumption during the trip. Anyone who causes a disturbance while intoxicated, disrupts public order, infringes on others’ rights, or causes financial loss to a third party is solely responsible for the consequences.

Accommodation

1. Hotel facilities:

① Hotels do not provide toothbrushes, toothpaste, slippers, kettles, or other everyday essentials. Please bring your own. In the event of an exhibition or other major event, our company reserves the right to select hotels of a different star rating.

② If you book through our company a hotel in a city not included in the itinerary’s overnight stays, our company reserves the right to select the hotel’s star rating.

2. Hotel dining:

① Hotel rooms do not provide hot drinking water.

② Hotel meals may differ considerably from those in China. Breakfast is simple, and lunch and dinner may also be less abundant; both the quantity and quality may be far below domestic standards.

3. Hotel room type:

① Triple rooms consist of one double bed and one single bed. They are only available for two adults traveling with one child under the age of 14.

② For individual travelers, our company arranges shared rooms with two separate beds. If there is one male or one female traveler without a roommate, we will try to arrange a room share with another traveler of the same sex or provide an extra bed. If necessary, couples may need to stay in separate rooms; we appreciate your cooperation. When assigning hotel room types according to travelers’ requests at the time of booking, if an odd number of guests (such as 3, 5, or 7) choose a double room, those who accept the assigned arrangement will not be charged a single-room supplement. Those who refuse the arrangement must pay the additional single-room supplement.

4. Hotel safety tips:

① Please keep your valuables safe and do not leave them in your hotel room. Avoid carrying large amounts of cash or expensive watches and jewelry. Keep your travel documents and belongings secure, and bring a photocopy of your travel documents and credit cards to facilitate replacement if they are lost.

② Please take good care of your belongings and luggage. Our company accepts no responsibility for loss or theft.

③ Please do not smoke in your hotel room. Any hotel fines incurred as a result will be paid by the person responsible.

④ After checking into the hotel, familiarize yourself with its safety information. Check whether the room windows can be opened and where the firefighting equipment is located. Locate the emergency exits and stairways and familiarize yourself with evacuation routes.

⑤ Check that all the amenities provided in your hotel room are present and undamaged. Report any missing or damaged items immediately to hotel staff or your tour guide.

⑥ Do not casually tell strangers the name of your hotel or your room number. Do not let strangers or people claiming to be hotel maintenance staff enter your room. Lock the door whenever you enter or leave, and before going to sleep check that the door and windows are closed and the security lock is engaged. Keep your belongings close to you and do not leave them near the windows.

⑦ If you need to leave the hotel during your stay, inform your tour guide and get a hotel key card from the front desk. The card has the hotel’s address and telephone number, which you can use to ask for help if you get lost.

① All tour participants must gather promptly and depart on time. Please arrive at the pickup point 15 minutes in advance. Our tour buses will not wait. Anyone who fails to gather and depart at the agreed time and place, and cannot join the tour en route, will be considered to have forfeited the tour; no refund will be given.

② Pickup and drop-off times shown on the webpage are estimates. The exact pickup and drop-off locations are subject to confirmation by our company. (If traffic or other unforeseen circumstances prevent our bus from reaching the pickup point on time, or if the time changes at short notice, we will notify you promptly. Please wait patiently.)

③ Coaches are available in three sizes: large coaches, minibuses, and 9-seat minibuses. Large coaches generally have dedicated luggage compartments, while minibuses and 9-seat minibuses have relatively limited luggage space. As coach luggage compartments are limited in size, we recommend bringing as little luggage as possible. We will assign a vehicle based on the final group size, ensuring one seat per person.

④ To prevent overcrowding near attractions, coach parking areas in most European cities are some distance from the attractions, and drivers are not allowed to park wherever they wish. Violations may result in substantial fines. The boarding and drop-off points may sometimes be some distance from the attractions. We appreciate your understanding.

2. Safety tips for coach travel:

① Smoking is prohibited on the bus.

② Please do not bring prohibited items.

③ Do not handle or tamper with anything in the vehicle to avoid unnecessary damage.

④ Follow your tour guide’s instructions during temporary coach stops and do not wander off.

⑤ When leaving the coach to visit attractions, dine, or shop, please make sure the windows are closed and take your valuables with you. The travel agency accepts no responsibility for items that are lost or stolen.

⑥ As the journey is long and the vehicle is under considerable strain, a breakdown may affect the itinerary. If this happens, the travel agency will promptly take remedial measures. We ask all tour members to cooperate.
