hi,i am thinking of booking a red sea cruise,but the travel agent could not give me prices for the daily trips from the ship. can anyone give me a rough idea what the prices would be for the alexandria trip, port said, and safaga trips. thanks.

Hello, we always get asked this. You can click here

You click on Red Sea, then your boat. Then when you view the ports of call, you can click for more information to see excursions.
Is that what you were looking for?

Wow those trips are expensive.

I have done the quad biking in Sharm whilst staying in a hotel there and paid £20.00 and not £30.00 but it might be a bit more as they have to actually get you there from the ship. And you get a cup of tea which I don't remember getting? :think:

thats what i thought!!
thanks again rocking69 for the link, but it only shows one of the port of calls the ship makes for the cruise we are thinking of booking. it has given me an idea of the prices though
we have stayed at sharm in the past so had an idea of trips from there but the cruise is something completely differen for us.

rocking69. i have found the prices now thanks, but they are quite expensive. do you know if nile cruises operate in december. i have tried on the internet and cant find any.

Hi

Yes they do. They might be pretty booked up now and they only depart on certain days of the week.
I was actually going to suggest that because the excursions either tend to be included or a lot cheaper.
Just make sure you look at a good category ship as the standard on the Nile Cruises can be quite a bit lower if you don't choose them wisely.
