Welcome to Egypt, where the sun always shines We know how important your holiday is to you. How much you value a precious week or two away with your loved ones. And how much you enjoy the dazzling beaches, crystal clear seas, unique culture and guaranteed sunshine that Egypt offers. That’s why we’ve used our expertise to bring you this hand-picked collection of hotels, cruises and tours, a collection designed with you in mind. We continue to expand our range of quality accommodation with new hotels in Sharm el Sheikh, Dahab and Luxor, plus the MS Grand Rose is now a genuine Red Sea Holidays exclusive, allowing us to offer a Nile cruising experience tailored specifically for our British and Irish guests. We’ve even made getting to Egypt a little easier, too, with more flights from more UK airports than ever before. Most of all, we are dedicated to helping you choose your perfect holiday. That’s why last year, an amazing 95% of our customers rated their holiday with us as excellent or good, and they even helped vote us as Best Medium Tour Operator to North Africa for a second year running in the 2012 British Travel Awards. We hope you will try our award winning service for yourself.

We include more We all hate hidden extras and believe in being as transparent as possible. That’s why why our brochure price holidays include more as standard: l Carefully selected accommodation l Professionally-guided cruise and tour itineraries l The services of a local representative l Free transfers between airport and hotel l Flights with reputable airlines l Free late checkout at all Red Sea Hotels and Grand Cruises l Minimum 20kg checked luggage allowance (plus 5kg carry-on) l All UK and overseas taxes, airport taxes and security charges

More flexible durations Sometimes 7 nights isn’t enough, and 14 nights is just too much. That’s why we’ve added extra 9, 10, 11 and 12 night options on many holidays. See hotel price grids for details.

Fly from an airport near you We offer flights to Egypt direct from London Gatwick, London Stansted, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Birmingham, East Midlands, Leeds Bradford, Manchester, Newcastle and Glasgow.

More all inclusive hotels We have a big choice of All Inclusive options. Your food, drinks and snacks are included, and many activities too, so your wallet can enjoy a well-earned break. It’s great for families as its easy to budget and there’s no need to worry about spending money.

At your service

Hotel ratings Hotel ratings give an overall indication of quality but official ratings standards vary greatly between countries – and sometimes even between resorts. That’s why for our hotels you’ll find a Sun Rating based on customer feedback and our own inspections, and that are consistent with the standards expected by our UK customers. We also display the official star rating for each hotel for your reference.

Getting the right advice Among our UK-based team of holiday advisers there’s always someone on hand who has been to a particular resort or hotel, so you can be confident that we’ll answer any questions with facts not guesses. Our website has full details for every hotel, including extra photos and many videos, plus answers to many frequently asked questions. Should you need help with special requests before you go, simply call our Customer Service team and they’ll be pleased to help you.

What our customers say There’s no greater recommendation than the unbiased words of fellow travellers. We’re sure you want to know what real people think about our holidays – we do too! That’s why we include the results of our independent customer surveys for all our Red Sea Hotels accommodation. The survey has been extended to our other hotels and cruises, too, so look out for more results in future editions. And just to make doubly sure you are getting an impartial view, we’ve highlighted what’s said on TripAdvisor, the world’s leading travel review website. TRAVELLERS’

In-resort service Our English speaking resort representatives will meet you on arrival at the airport and guide you through passport control and baggage reclaim. Once through customs, your local representative will join you on the transfer to your hotel, and make sure you get checked in. A welcome meeting the next day will introduce you to the hotel and resort. At all Red Sea Hotels, the Reps attend every day; at our other hotels you’ll see them several times a week, and can contact them easily by phone. In each case times are posted on the notice board. If you have any questions about your accommodation, the resort, things to see or do, excursions or you encounter a problem, simply ask for their advice or assistance.

The resorts will be linked by a beachside promenade extending the entire length of the bay.

A brand new 4 Sun hotel in Hurghada, the Grand Marina Hotel is in a prime location in the heart of the resort and has a beautiful sandy beach. It will be offered on an All Inclusive basis, and is due to open in 2014.

Explore Egypt


Explore Egypt

Egypt is a land of contrasts that just beg to be explored. Home to Africa’s largest city, almost 97% of Egypt is unpopulated desert. It has a very young population but is known best for its 5,000 year old Pharaohs. Wonder at its awe-inspiring stone edifices, as white sailed boats float lazily on the mighty Nile. Enjoy the sights, sounds and bustle of street markets and bazaars, and the calm of crystal clear waters and colourful corals framed by sandy white beaches. Port Said

A treat for the taste buds

Haggle away!

Egypt offers a mouthwatering mix of Mediterranean and North African cuisine. Aysh (pita bread) and fool (fava beans) beans are the staples and you’ll find food served several ways, and at any time from breakfast to supper! Why not try: ● Mezze – Egyptian style tapas, often eaten as a starter

● Babaghanoush – grilled aubergine dip

Leave your inhibitions behind and do as the natives do – haggle. Famous bazaars such as the Khan el-Khalili, as well as the individual stores that pepper the streets, can offer great bargains, particularly when you are buying a speciality of the area, such as alabaster in Luxor, or antiques, fine clothing and jewellery in Cairo. Decide on your final price before you start, start low, be prepared for the shop owner to start high and enjoy the resulting game that will get you to meet in the middle.

● Stuffed vine leaves

Weather

● Torly stew

Typical of any desert country, the summer (May to October) is hot and the winter (November to April) mild. Inland areas like Luxor are hotter than the coast during the day, but then cool off much faster at night. Light coloured clothes, sun cream and headwear are recommended for the day while for the evenings it’s advisable to pack something cosy to keep you warm.

● Tahine – sesame paste

● Kufta – minced lamb kebabs ● Hamaam – pigeon And no meal is complete without some oh-so-naughty baklava – delicious sweet pastries. Tea is served Arabian style, very sweet with milk and lemon on the side. The coffee, though, is Turkish – strong, thick and black!

A cultural melting pot A country with an incredible mix of cultures, you’ll find traditions from the time of the Pharaohs, tribal customs, the culture of classical Islam, of the Turkish Ottoman Empire, hints of the British influence early last century, of course, the more recent and hopefully more welcome invaders – today’s tourists.

Experience Egypt


Experience Egypt

Egypt has over 5,000 years-worth of fabulous historical sites, stunning desert scenery and some of the world’s most beautiful coral reefs. With so much to see, it’s worth planning ahead to make the most of your time. Working with our partner Destination Egypt, we have developed an extensive range of excursions that includes all the most popular trips, and some hidden gems too. We personally vet all the itineraries to ensure that you receive consistently good value and the highest quality service, plus our reps are always on hand in resort should you need any assistance. Best of all, all the excursions are available to pre-book with us before you go, so there’s no queuing in resort, no currency conversions to do, and you can save money too. We’ve listed a few of our favourite experiences below.

Luxor 5000 years of glorious history Luxor, on the site of ancient Thebes, is often called the world’s greatest open air museum, where more than 5,000 years of history are laid out in all their glory. Highlights include the magnificent Karnak Temple complex, with its monuments to Ramses II and the god Amun-Ra. Across the River Nile, visit the temple of Queen Hatshepsut, the Colossi of Memnon, and, of course, the Valley of the Kings where tombs were constructed for the pharaohs and nobles of the New Kingdom.

Experience Egypt

St Catherine’s Monastery / Mount Sinai Mount Sinai (or “Moses’ Mountain”), 230km from Sharm el Sheikh, is where Moses received the 10 Commandments. Enjoy the desert sunrise as we travel to the mountain to climb in Moses’ footsteps. It’s not steep, but there are around 500 steps at the summit. On the return we call at St Catherine’s monastery. Built around 530AD on the site where Moses saw the burning bush, it is home to the oldest known copy of the Bible. This is a Greek Orthodox monastery, and the chapel is adorned with exquisite icons and mosaics.

Petra The Indiana Jones experience Across the Red Sea in Jordan lies the lost city of Petra. This ancient city was a key trading point on the spice trading routes. It was carved out of rose pink rock in virtually inaccessible mountains between 800BC and 100AD. As the spice caravans dwindled, so did the city’s fortunes, and it was lost for hundreds of years. Rediscover it on this trip, as you walk the narrow winding gorge that opens suddenly to reveal the famous treasury building, carved directly into the rock itself. Day trip from Sharm el Sheikh by boat, from £170 pp (+ $70 border tax)

Day trip from Sharm el Sheikh, from £35 pp (+ $5 park fee)

Ras Mohammed National Park The park, which includes large areas of coastline, islands and offshore reefs around Sharm el Sheikh, is famed for its wildlife, especially underwater, where nutrient rich waters support an abundance of vibrantly coloured corals and other marine life. Experience the best snorkelling sites on our guided trips. Day trip from Sharm el Sheikh, from £34 pp (+$7 national park fee)

Abu Simbel

Jerusalem

Saved by a feat of modern engineering

The spiritual home of many world religions

The UNESCO world heritage site at Abu Simbel consists of two massive rock temples carved from the rock face of a mountain 3,300 years ago, as a monument to Rameses II and his queen, Nefertari. In 1968, when the Aswan dam was being built, these mighty monuments were saved for future generations by being disassembled and rebuilt above the new shore line. Day trip from Aswan: By coach from £88 pp

By air from £250 pp

Jerusalem is home to key sites for many major religions: the Temple Mount and its Western Wall for Jews, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre for Christians and the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque for Muslims. On this trip, view the city from the famous Mount of Olives, visit the Wailing Wall and follow in Jesus’ footsteps along the Via Dolorosa – the route taken with the Cross. Then visit the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, revered as the site of Jesus’ crucifixion, burial and resurrection and end the day on Mount Zion. Day trip from Sharm el Sheikh by coach, from £100 pp (+ $44 border tax)

Dive into the Red Sea

The Red Sea is considered to be one of the worlds’ best diving destinations, with a huge choice of dive sites, and warm water all year-round. The crystal clear waters support an abundance of brightly coloured coral reefs that are home to thousands of species of reef fish, turtles, moray eels, barracuda and sharks. This unique ecosystem has something to offer expert divers and beginners alike, with opportunities for every age and ability.

Our family diving course can be held privately for one family, or in groups with several families able to learn together. The course includes theory and pool time – where you learn to adjust to the equipment and breathing – before progressing to open water dives. There are five sessions over a week, culminating in a final dive after which everyone you will all have earned the PADI Open Water certificate, allowing you to dive anywhere in the world! There’s a minimum age of 12 years, but we can tailor programmes for those with children as young as 10. Prices start from just £295 per person, including all dive classes and equipment hire.

During this 2-3 day beginners’ course you’ll cover material and practice skills such as buoyancy skills, staying warm, streamlining your swimming, buddy diving techniques, diving environments and aquatic life you’re likely to encounter, preventing common problems underwater and an introduction to boat diving. This is similar to the Open Water Course, but fewer modules are taken. You can upgrade to Open Water later.

Intermediate: Open Water Diver Course – from £295 This 4-5 day beginner’s course includes equipment and a logbook. It is the world’s most popular scuba course, and includes knowledge development to understand basic principles of scuba diving, Confined Water Dives to learn basic scuba skills and Open Water Dives to review your skills and explore!

This one day experience programme can be credited towards the Scuba Diver or Open Water certification.

Sharm el Sheikh

El Gouna

Makadi Bay & Sahl Hasheesh

The protected waters of Ras Mohammed are famed for their unmatched variety and density of species. Nearby Tiran Island is home to several reefs, where currents from the Gulf of Aqaba support a diversity of corals and large fish swarms. Those same currents also mean that there is no shortage of wreck sites, including those of the SS Thistlegorm. The reefs in Sharm extend close in to shore so there are plenty of opportunities for shore-diving, too.

There is a huge variety of sites in easy reach, from easy shallow dives to more challenging ones such as the reef of Abu Nihau with its several diveable wrecks.

Several local sites with shallow, protected lagoon sites that often open out onto spectacular, tall coral cliffs, teeming with species such as sea snails, turtles, stonefish and doctor fish.

Dahab This geologically unique area, is home to two of the most famous and favoured Red Sea dive sites – the Canyon and the Blue Hole.

Shore Diving Many reefs can be reached by diving directly from the shore, especially in Sharm el Sheikh and Dahab. It’s a great way to dive, and it’s quicker than a boat trip, too – winning you favours with any non-diving family and friends.

Already certified to dive? 1 day dive from £35 Includes 1 day on the diving boat, 2 dives, 2 tanks and weights. Excludes equipment. 3 day dive from £93 Includes 3 days on the diving boat, 6 dives, 6 tanks and weights. Excludes equipment. 5 day dive from £148 Includes 5 days on the diving boat, 10 dives, 2 tanks and weights. Excludes equipment.

Hurghada Great for beginners and experienced divers, with 30 different dive sites. These range from the sandy sea bed with shifting white sand dunes to dramatic, steep, outer reefs and the legendary wreck sites in the Straits of Gubal. Favourite sites including Abu Galawa, Abu Nugar, Sha’ab El Erg (Dolphin House), Um Gamar and Carless Reef are all within 25 to 60 minutes by boat.

Soma Bay Sites include a formation of 7 magnificent pillars of coral rising from the sandy bottom just offshore and Panorama Reef, a huge coral wall dropping over 100 metres with numerous grottos, and schools of reef fish, barracuda and even sharks.

Dive into the Red Sea

Favourite dive sites

Wreck diving Wrecked ships are a magnet for the adventurous and more experienced diver, with the eerie appearance, and unique diving opportunities that they offer. The shallow waters and reefs of the Red Sea mean there are many diveable sites close at hand. Ras Mohammed, Jackson Reef and the Blue Hole are just some of the locations that play host to long-submerged wrecks including the Thistlegorm – considered one of the world’s top 10 wreck sites – Dunraven and Carnatic.

OUR DIVE PARTNERS At Red Sea Holidays, your safety and satisfaction is our priority. We only work with experienced local dive companies staffed by fully qualified guides and instructors, with safe, modern equipment, and, of course, the best local knowledge of which sites to visit, and when.

Aquarius Diving Club Hurghada, Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh, El Gouna & Soma Bay A PADI 5* Gold Palm Instructor Development Centre, with dive centres in central Hurghada, Makadi Bay and Sahl Hasheesh. They offer tuition for beginners to advanced level plus recreational diving and snorkelling.

Your 10 inclusive excursions

1 4 65

3 2 Luxor

Every Nile cruise and Cruise & Stay package includes ten free excursions that together give a comprehensive introduction to the wonders of ancient Egypt. Each excursion is led by a trained, English speaking Egyptologist.

Eastern Desert

1 The Valley of the Kings Western Desert

7 Kom Ombo

9 8 The final resting place for dozens of ancient Egypt’s rulers, including the famous boy-king, Tutankhamun, this unassuming valley contains almost 100 separate tombs, from plain crypts to vast and ornately decorated chambers covered with hieroglyphs that intricately recount the history of Egypt’s ancient kingdoms.

4 Queen Hatshepsut’s Temple

Queen Hatshepsut was one of the longest ruling female pharaohs, and ruled Egypt for 22 years, 3,500 years ago. She ensured immortality by making her mortuary temple a masterpiece. The spectacular colonnaded structure is built directly into the cliff face, and has many terraces that were once planted with lush gardens.

6 Medinet Habu

Medinet Habu is the location of the Mortuary Temple of Rameses III, and was dedicated to the god Amun. Large and well-preserved, the temple is perhaps best known for the quantity, quality and colour of the bas-relief carvings and hieroglyphs that adorn many of its walls and columns.

24

q Aswan Lake Nasser

5 The Colossi of Memnon

The 3400-year-old Colossi of Memnon are two gigantic stone statues on Luxor’s west bank. The statues depict Pharaoh Amenhotep III in a seated position, with smaller depictions of his wife carved into the sides. They were built to stand guard at the entrance of Amenhotep’s memorial temple.

7 Temple of Sobek at Kom Ombu

This unusual double temple was erected in the Ptolemaic era, and has two symmetrical halves, each dedicated to a different god: one to the crocodile god, Sobek, god of fertility and one of the creators of the world (300 crocodile mummies were discovered near the tomb!), the other to falcon-headed Horus.


Located in Luxor on the east bank of the River Nile, the Luxor Temple was a sacred venue for many ancient Egyptian rituals. The temple was built by Amenhotep III in the 14th century BC, and expanded a century later by Rameses II. Among the ancient rites performed there was the Opet Festival, where a statue of Amun (king of the gods) was paraded down the Nile to join his consort Mut, a mother-goddess, in a celebration of fertility. Over centuries of seasonal floods, the temple became covered in river silt, and several buildings were erected over it, including the Abu el-Haggag Mosque.

8 The unfinished obelisk in Aswan

Situated in an ancient quarry, had the obelisk been finished, it would have been more than 40 metres long, and weighed 1,200 tons, making it the largest stone obelisk in ancient Egypt. Unfortunately, a crack developed which ruined the obelisk and it was abandoned – giving us a unique insight into how ancient Egypt was built.

q Aswan High Dam

3 Karnak Temple

Nile Cruising

2 Luxor Temple

Egypt’s ancient Karnak Temple has stood for more than 4,000 years, and remains one of the world’s most significant, and certainly the most impressive religious structures. Part of the monumental city of Thebes, Karnak is a collection of temples and other religious buildings, around a sacred lake. The temple complex was a city of the gods ruled over by the pharaohs – priest-kings considered as living gods by their worshippers. There are four main precincts, of which only the largest, the Precinct of Amun-Re, is open to the general public. By night the complex comes to life again with a world-famous sound and light show, avaliable as an optional extra.

9 The Temples of Philae

The original Philae Island was flooded by the the creation of the Aswan High Dam. The ancient Temples of Philae stood undisturbed on the island for thousands of years but were painstakingly disassembled, relocated and rebuilt prior to the dam’s completion, and you can now visit them on their newly created island home.

Optional Excursions Abu Simbel

Wonder at these iconic temples, hewn from the face of a mountain. Day trip from Aswan: By coach from £88 pp By air from £250 pp

Aswan Nubian village & National Park

Experience Nubian life and culture. And perhaps see a crocodile! From only £88 pp

Philae Temple sound & light show

Enjoy the spectacular Sound & Light show in the Philae Temple. From only £30 pp This giant dam took 5 years to plan, 10 to build, and a further 6 to fill. Since its completion it has provided Egypt with water, electricity, and protects fertile farmland against drought and flooding. Many archaeological sites were submerged beneath the new lake but others, such as Abu Simbel were relocated and saved.

Karnak Temple sound & light show

See and hear Karnak brought to life in this world-famous show. From only £30 pp

Makadi Bay


Makadi Bay

On the western coast of the Red Sea between Safaga and Hurghada, Makadi Bay nestles gently between serene desert sand dunes and the Red Sea Mountains. Boasting long stunning stretches of gently sloping white sand, translucent waters, and inshore reefs that are home to exquisite marine life, this tranquil destination is ideal for lovers of snorkelling and diving. Our hotels, which are grouped along the shore, combined with the Makadi Mall and Makadi Sports Centre, create a holiday village with everything you could possibly need. By evening the laid back day-time ambiance evolves into equally low-key nightlife, with dinner at your pick of the hotel restaurants, followed by live entertainment at the hotel bars.

Makadi Mall


No mall would be complete without shops, and the Makadi Mall is no different. Take time to explore the boutiques lining its lanes and you could pick up some jewellery for a loved one, or a unique home decoration to remind you of your trip. There is a well-stocked toy shop guaranteed to bring out your inner child (or replace a forgotten favourite) and the florist is perfect for surprising your partner with fresh flowers on that special occasion. There is also a fully-stocked pharmacy and an ATM. All the shops offer western-style pricing and there’s no hassle. They even accept credit cards.

Makadi Bay

The Makadi Mall offers a range of dining and shopping in beautifully landscaped, Moorish style arcade reminiscent of a traditional souk. It is just a few minutes walk from each of our Makadi Bay hotels, and uniquely, as a Red Sea Hotels guest, all the restaurants can be enjoyed as part of your all inclusive package. After dinner you can enjoy a varied entertainment programme from live shows to movies under the stars.

Something for all tastes... As well as shopping, Makadi Mall offers no less than five à la carte restaurants so there’s guaranteed to be something to tempt you. As a Red Sea Hotels guest, you can dine at any of the restaurants as part of your All Inclusive package; all you need to do is make a reservation. Just like in the hotel restaurants, there is a full choice of all inclusive dishes, with some speciality options at a small extra charge.

Sahl Hasheesh

A luxurious new resort between Hurghada and Makadi Bay, Sahl Hasheesh is surrounded by beautiful sweeping bays of coral sand leading to the crystal clear blue waters of the Red Sea. As you enter the resort, you pass through gates that recreate the monuments of ancient Egypt, but that is where “ancient” ends and the fabulous modern resort begins. Our Sahl Hasheesh hotels are all linked by a promenade extending the full length of the bay and, as you would expect, watersports feature heavily. In a nod to the origin of the resort’s name –“grassy plain”– there is one championship golf course open already, and an another golf complex under construction.

Did you know?

Getting here

The resort has its own “sunken city” of partly submerged pharaonic ruins visible from the pier. Designed to attract coral & fish, they are ideal for snorkelling.

Grand Bay Sahl Hasheesh

Golf Course & Resorts

Experience quiet style and comfort in this hotel modelled on Granada’s Alhambra Palace. Courtyards and elaborate pools offer privacy and an escape from the heat of the midday sun. Moorish arches, trellises, mosaics and ornamentation evoke the pampered lives of the Sultans, as will luxury dining in five restaurants, or lounging in the custom built spa.

This mega resort occupies the prime site in the centre of the bay. It combines 7 individual hotels, plus a huge choice of restaurants and bars, entertainment venues, two large shopping malls, convention centre and championship golf courses, plus, of course, the 2km sweep of golden, sandy beach. The architecture draws its inspiration from classical Egypt. Each hotel has its own identity, with influences ranging from the mighty monuments of the Pharaohs to the intricate patterns and carving of the Arabian era. With the hotels built along a lagoon representing the mighty Nile, guests will arrive aboard traditional Felucca boats. In fact, you may be able to experience all of Egypt’s best bits without leaving the resort!

A series of three Kurt Roosnecht-designed 18 hole championship golf courses form the focus of a luxurious sports and entertainment complex. The courses will challenge with their play, and charm with their beauty, with views across the bay to the east, and mountains to the west. There’s plenty of opportunity to hone your skills, with golf pros on hand, plus driving range, golf academy and pro shop. And for the 19th hole, each course offers its own well-stocked club house. The complex also includes a water park, multi-purpose sports centre, and a shopping mall with boutiques, fine restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues.

Hurghada

This former fishing village is now a lively, family friendly resort that has risen from the desert to provide the perfect combination of luxurious hotels, contemporary restaurants, boutiques and cafes. It comprises three main areas: El Dahar, the old town, with its traditional souks and local nightlife; Sakkala, the old harbour and nearby new marina, home to many bars, restaurants and nightclubs; and El Memsha, the main resort area, with its modern hotel developments following the coastal road.

Hurghada’s coral “gardens” are some of the finest in the world. The warm waters are home to colourful coral reefs and many varieties of rare fish, making them a magnet for divers. Exploring the reefs is easy for non-divers, too, whether snorkelling or from the comfort of a glass bottomed boat. Watersports and sun bathing are just some of the daytime attractions, and by night Hurghada comes alive with the opportunity to shop, dine and dance the night away.

Shop ‘til you drop l Bazaars are a great place to spend the evening, be entertained and enjoy the fun of haggling for a bargain. Start low, they’ll start high and hopefully where you meet will be the price you had hoped to pay.

l Senzo Mall, on the outskirts of Hurghada, offers western style shopping with great prices on international brands, plus cafes and a multiplex cinema.

Party the night away l Hard Rock Cafe, near the Grand Resort l Papas Bar at Hurghada Marina

Did you know? The Red Sea is regularly visited by 8 different species of dolphin and whale, including three species of bottlenose dolphin.

Badawaya Bedouin Village An opportunity to see how the traditional Bedouin live and experience an amazing sunset over the desert.

Giftun Island Protected Area The waters around this idyllic desert island hold some of the Red Sea’s finest coral reels. A must for snorkellers and divers.

El Gouna


El Gouna

“Carving paradise out of the desert”, was the developer’s aim when El Gouna was first conceived. Today, some 20 years later, this sophisticated beach resort, of islands and interlinked lagoons, is a popular for its wealth of watersports as well as its dining and evening entertainment. The stylish Kafr El Gouna / Abu Tig Marina area of boutique shopping, restaurants, bars and nightclubs make it particularly attractive to couples and families with younger children, while its wealth of watersports, including scuba diving, water-skiing, kite surfing, parasailing and snorkelling, as well as its famous golf course, means there is plenty to keep you occupied during the day. Other attractions around town include a small aquarium, go-kart track, paintball arena, tennis courts, horse stables and a football stadium.

No one knows the origins of the town’s name. One legend claims that Sheikh Abou Soma was so enthralled by the area’s beauty that he asked to be buried at the very tip of the peninsula, which then took his name.

Ottoman fortress that dates from the 16 century. It will soon be the home of a museum containing displays on local history, Red Sea mining, monasteries and trade. Safaga l Wadi Hammamat, located about half way between Quseir and Gift (ancient Coptos), is famous for its pharaonic graffiti.

Dahab


Dahab

Dahab, gold in Arabic, is named for its sweeping golden sands that stretch as far as the eye can see. Originally a Bedouin fishing village, it was “discovered” by backpackers drawn by the beautiful location, and the excellent diving and windsurfing conditions. From these slightly bohemian beginnings, it has developed into a carefree, relaxed resort quite unlike the more developed areas of Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada. Once you’ve dined Bedouin style by the beach, sprawled across comfortable cushions at a low slung table, you may never go back to traditional restaurants!

Warm, calm waters and a reliable offshore breeze make this a haven for wind and kitesurfing. Dahab is also excellent for snorkelling and diving, with reef sites extending close in shore, including the “Blue Hole”, a circular sink hole surrounded by coral walls that teem with anemones, brightly coloured fish and even barracuda.

Booking Conditions

Our agreement with you Please read carefully the booking conditions below. These set out the Terms and Conditions of the contract between you and Red Sea Holidays UK Ltd, trading as Red Sea Holidays (’we’, ‘us’ and ‘our’). We are a limited company, registered in England. Our registered company number is 06418075 and our registered office is 5 New Street Square, London EC4A 3TW. The contract will be governed by English Law and any dispute, claim or other matter which may arise in relation to your booking will be dealt with in the Courts of England and Wales. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may choose to deal with any dispute in the courts of Scotland or Northern Ireland, as appropriate. These Terms contain some exclusions and limitations of liability. If any part of the conditions proves to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest of the conditions will remain valid.

Your holiday package

The person who signs the booking form, or completes the booking online or by telephone is the ‘Lead Name’. He or she must be at least 18 years of age at the time of booking and will be responsible for the full cost of the holiday, including any insurance premiums and cancellation or amendment charges. We will send any documents and other information regarding the booking to the Lead Name who is responsible for providing other members of the travelling party with full and accurate information, including details of any changes, and for confirming that all members of the party agree to be bound by these conditions, and the other information published in the relevant brochure or our website. If you are making the booking on behalf of a minor under the age of 18, who is not travelling with a person aged 18 or older, we require a letter of consent from a parent or legal guardian. The minimum age of unaccompanied travel is 16 years on the day of departure. All bookings are subject to our Terms in conjunction with the information in our brochure or website, and any restrictions described in our Holiday Information guide Our contract with you is made when we accept your holiday enquiry and send you a confirmation invoice, at which point we will set aside your chosen accommodation and transport. We will send you or (if you are booking through a travel agent) your travel agent a confirmation invoice within 7 days. Please check that the holiday on the invoice is the one that you wanted. We are responsible for providing the holiday we have confirmed to you. If you cancel or alter your booking later on, you may have to pay an amendment charge. If you book within 7 days of your departure date or if there is not enough time to send you a written confirmation, a contract between us will exist when we confirm your booking. We reserve the right to refuse your booking. If we do this we will refund any money already paid to us.

Prices

All prices advertised are accurate at the date published, but we reserve the right to increase or decrease any of those prices from time to time, and to correct any errors in the advertised prices. The price for your holiday package will be confirmed at the time of booking and will include all charges and any UK taxes or governmental levies that apply to your holiday at the time of booking; subject to the correction of errors, we will only change the price in the circumstances described below. Price changes after booking Price increases or decreases after booking will be passed on by way of a surcharge or refund. A surcharge or refund (as applicable) will be payable, subject to the conditions set out in this clause, if our costs increase or decrease as a result of (as applicable) transportation costs, dues, taxes or fees payable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports or any changes in the exchange rates which have been used to calculate the cost of your holiday. Even in the above cases, only if the amount of the increase in our costs exceeds 2% of the total cost of your holiday (excluding insurance premiums and any amendment charges) will we levy a surcharge. If any surcharge is greater than 10% of the cost of your holiday (excluding insurance premiums and any amendment charges), you will be entitled to cancel your booking and receive a full refund of all monies you have paid to the Company (except for any amendment charges) or alternatively purchase another holiday from us. Should the price of your holiday go down due to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of your holiday cost, then any refund due will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. You have 14 days from the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice to tell us if you want to cancel your holiday or purchase another holiday. If you do not tell us that you wish to do so within this period of time, we are entitled to assume that you will pay the surcharge. Any surcharge must be paid with the balance of the cost of the holiday or within 14 days of the issue date printed on the surcharge invoice, whichever is the later. We promise not to levy a surcharge within 30 days of the start of your holiday. No refunds will be made within this period either. Exchange rates The exchange rates we use are calculated and updated bi-annually by reference to the FTO base date with exchange rates as published in the Financial Times under the section ‘FT Guide to World Currencies’. Aviation insurance and security charge We have included in our prices a charge representing the extra aircraft insurance and security costs, which have been imposed on airlines and tour operators. You should be aware that this charge may change between the date of publication and the time of travel. Since these costs are beyond our control, we reserve the right to increase the amount of this charge at any time. We will of course inform you of any such change should that become necessary.

106

Fuel We have included in our prices an estimate of fuel costs based on our forward view of oil prices at the date of publication. In view of the current volatility of world oil prices, a fuel supplement may be added to the price of your holiday at the time of booking.

Financial Protection

We provide full financial protection for our package holidays, by way of our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number, ATOL 9749. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. We will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where we aren’t able do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought or a suitable alternative (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme.

Payment

When you make your booking you must pay a deposit of £150 per person plus any insurance premiums. No deposit is payable for infants under the age of 2 years on the date of return. Payment of the rest of your holiday price is due at least 10 weeks before the date of departure. If you do not pay in full by 10 weeks before departure your holiday will be cancelled and you will lose your deposit. When booking within 10 weeks of departure, full payment is required at the time of booking. Tickets will not be issued until your holiday has been paid for. Some airlines require tickets to be issued at time of booking (restricted fares) and these may not be refundable; if we have to make special flight arrangements, we reserve the right to charge you the full cost of these flights by way of a higher deposit at the time you book your holiday, and will advise you of the increased deposit cost before confirming your booking. We accept payment in cash, by cheque and major credit and debit cards. If you choose to pay by credit card, there will be a 2.5% fee added to your booking (3.0% for American Express). Cheques require 5 working days to clear, and will only be accepted where they will clear at least 10 weeks prior to departure. If you book through a travel agent, any money which you pay to that travel agent under or in contemplation of any contract with us is held by them on our behalf until the date of actual payment to us.

Insurance

It is a condition of your contract with us that you have insurance cover for the duration of your trip, and that it is adequate for your needs and the type of activities you will be undertaking as part of your holiday. We do not check insurance policies; however we reserve the right to request written details (insurer’s name, policy number and emergency contact number) of your policy. You are responsible for indemnifying us in full in the event that we incur any losses or expenses arising out of your failure to take out adequate insurance cover.

Excursions

Excursions include sightseeing trips, diving packages, golfing, events and other tours in resort for which additional payment is required. These can either be pre-booked and paid for when you book your holiday, or booked and paid for in resort We are acting in the capacity of an agent for the supplier in the sale of excursion tours and tickets. When making an excursion booking, you accept that you are entering into a contract directly between the excursion provider and yourself. The excursion providers’ terms and conditions will apply. If you decide to cancel your booking, then you may be liable for the full cost of the excursion booked; this will be up to your excursion provider. We do not have any responsibility or liability for anything which may go wrong on an excursion. It is your responsibility to note carefully any conditions of contract contained in any excursion literature, ticket or receipt you are given. You may be subject to the laws of the country in which you take your excursion and may be required to bring any disputes or claims before the Courts of that country. Excursions do not form part of your Package and are not governed by the Package Travel, Package Holiday and Package Tours Regulations 1992.

Changes you make before travel

For advice on amending a booking, please contact us in writing. We allow changes to be made to bookings already made, providing that these change requests are made to us at least 21 days before departure. Change requests must be sent to us at Red Sea Holidays, 2nd Floor, 4 Snow Hill, London EC1A 2DJ. The Lead Name must sign the letter. With the exception of name changes, you may not make changes to your booking within 28 days of departure. You may however cancel your booking within this period subject to the payment of cancellation charges as outlined within our cancellation policy. At all other times, you may make changes to your holiday subject to the payment of the appropriate amendment fee(s). The amendment fee(s) may vary based upon the type of amendment being requested and the number of days prior to travel at which we receive your change request.

Amendment fees shown are per person, per change. Your amendment will not be confirmed until you are in receipt of the revised notice. Where you make a change to your booking that is subject to the payment of an amendment or administration charge, then this charge must be paid in full at the time the amendment is first made. Amendment, administration and credit card surcharges will not usually be refunded should you subsequently cancel your booking. Where you request a change to any additional third party products or services booked to complement your holiday, they will incur an amendment charge equal to any unrecoverable financial commitment made to the product or service provider by Red Sea Holidays on your behalf. The third party will usually have their own terms and conditions related to the product or service provided to which you should also refer. Where you make multiple changes to any combination of either your travel date, your holiday duration, the property at which you will be staying or your flight arrangements within a single transaction, Red Sea Holidays will usually only charge a single set of amendment fees per person and not a cumulative charge per change. Charges for all other amendments, for example to change passenger details, will usually be charged cumulatively per change. If people drop out of your party, we will recalculate the cost of the holiday for the remaining travellers. If fewer adults share the accommodation, you may have to pay the extra room charges shown in this brochure. We cannot guarantee a twin room for the remaining customer from a party of two. One person who occupies a twin room will probably have to pay a significant extra charge. Prices for revised bookings are calculated based on the following: Type of holiday

Revised price calculation

Brochure priced holidays (i.e. price does not include late adjustment discount)

Pay any applicable amendment fees, plus: a) The full brochure price applicable on the day you request the amendment, including supplements and any brochured discounts that apply at that time. Excludes late adjustment discounts. OR b) The late deal selling price for the same holiday on the day amendment is requested if this is higher than a).

Late deals (i.e. price includes late adjustment discount)

Definitions ‘Major Change’ includes (but is not limited to) the following:  a change of accommodation to one with an officially lower rating;  a change of more than 12 hours to your scheduled time of departure or return;  a significant increase in the price of your holiday. Any change in the airline or the type of aircraft from that stated in the brochure/website or on your ticket does not count as a Major Change. ‘Unavoidable Event’ means unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control or the control of our suppliers, resulting in events that could not have been avoided even if all reasonable care had been taken. Such circumstances include (but are not limited to) war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, industrial dispute, unavoidable technical problems with transport, closure or congestion of airports, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, fire and adverse weather conditions (including heavy/ insufficient snowfalls or non-freezing conditions). Minor Change We hope that we will not have to make any change to your holiday but, because our holidays are planned many months in advance, we sometimes do need to make changes. Most changes are minor and we will always tell you as soon as possible before your departure. In such circumstances, we will have no liability to you. Major Change Occasionally we may need to make a Major Change (see Definitions above). We reserve the right to do this at any time. We will let you or your travel agent know about any important changes when you book. If you have already booked, we will let you know as soon as we can, if there is time before your departure. If we do, you must tell us as soon as possible so that you can decide if you wish to accept the change or cancel the holiday with a full refund. Cancellation If we cancel your holiday before it starts, and it is not your fault, or if you cancel because you decline a Major Change as above, you have the following options:  accept our offer of a replacement holiday of lower quality (if available), and we will refund the difference in cost; or  accept our offer of a replacement holiday of equivalent or higher quality (if available); or  ask for a refund of the money you have paid. If you accept a Major Change, or if we Cancel your holiday, we will, as a minimum, compensate you according to the scale below, in addition to any refund. We will not pay compensation when the change or cancellation is due to an Unavoidable Event or because the number of persons who have booked is less than that required for the package.If you have paid reduced rates for children, we will pay credit or compensation on a pro rata basis of the adult rate. Children travelling on free child places, and infants, are not entitled to compensation. Notice of cancellation

If you want to make changes while you are away on holiday, for example to upgrade your accommodation, we will try to help. These changes are subject to availability and must be paid for locally. You should notify us of any changes as soon as you are aware of them? Airline policies Most airlines treat name changes as cancellations and impose extra charges, which you will have to pay. If you make changes after an airline ticket has been issued, you may have to pay for the cancelled ticket and buy a new ticket at full cost.

If you cancel your booking

To cancel the entire holiday, the Lead Name must write to our Administration Department by recorded delivery at the address on your booking confirmation. Cancellation takes effect on the date we receive your letter. If you cancel after we confirm your booking, you must compensate us for losses, as we incur costs from the moment you make the booking.

The full deposit for a holiday is £150 per person. If you booked using a low deposit offer, the balance of the full £150 deposit will need to be paid in full upon cancellation, if you have not already paid it. If your booking includes a flight based on a non-refundable restricted fare, the cancellation charge may be higher, in some cases up to the full amount of the booking. We will provide details of this after we receive your cancellation instruction. No refunds are offered for taxes and charges associated with cancelled or unused flights.

In the event that you are unable to board your flight due to a problem within our control (you are ‘denied boarding’) we will provide welfare as appropriate for the period of any delay. If any similar alternative flight offered is not acceptable, you have a right to reimbursement of the cost of any flight (you should note that this is not a right to reimbursement of the full holiday cost unless the above paragraph in relation to cancellation applies). You will also be entitled to compensation, according to the length of your flight on scales laid down by the European Commission, details of which are available on request.

Minimum numbers

A minimum number of people need to book to enable the advertised holiday to take place. If this number is not achieved and we have to cancel your holiday we will tell you immediately, at least 6 weeks before departure. We will refund the full cost of your holiday and the insurance premium, unless you obtained cover with another company. Where we cancel for this reason you are entitled to the options detailed in the paragraph ‘If we change or cancel your holiday’, but you are not entitled to compensation in these circumstances.

Termination and compensation

You and your party must behave reasonably while on holiday. We reserve the right, at our reasonable discretion, to terminate the holidays of people who indulge in serious misconduct. If we do so, we will have no further responsibility or liability to you. If you or any member of your party wilfully, recklessly or negligently damages any accommodation, property or person, or causes delay to or diversion of any flight or other means of transport, you agree to compensate us for any loss we may suffer, including legal costs. Guests who participate in organised sports and watersports activities in all hotels do so at their own risk. They must follow the supervisors’ instructions.

Passport, visa and immigration requirements

Your specific passport and visa requirements, and other immigration requirements are your responsibility and you should confirm these with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel because you have not complied with any passport, visa or immigration requirements.

Our liability to you

We will accept responsibility for your holiday as an ‘organiser’ under the Package Travel, Package Holidays and Package Tours Regulations 1992 as set out below. Subject to the other provisions of this Clause, we accept responsibility for ensuring that your travel arrangements, which you book with us, are supplied as described by us. If, after departure, any part of your travel arrangements are not provided as promised, due to the fault of our employees, agents or suppliers, we will pay you appropriate compensation,

Booking Conditions

if this has affected the enjoyment of your travel arrangements. However, our liability in all cases shall be limited to a maximum of twice the value of the element not supplied excluding flights. The level of such compensation will take into account all relevant factors including the invoice price of the holiday, any steps it was reasonable for the client to take to minimise the inconvenience/damage suffered and the extent to which the deficiency or improper performance can have affected the client’s enjoyment of the package. Please note that we will not be liable for any injury, illness, or death or consequent losses suffered by you or any member of your party, unless you are able to prove that such injury or illness was caused by lack of reasonable care and skill on the part of ourselves or our suppliers in the performance of our obligations under our contract with you. It is a condition of the payment of compensation that you notify us of any complaint or claim strictly in accordance our complaints procedure and, further, assign to us any rights that you may have against any third party in connection with your claim. You must co-operate with us and our insurers in this regard. If you suffer a personal injury, death or serious difficulties as the result of an activity which does not form part of the package you booked with us – including for example any additional services or facilities provided to you by a hotel or any other supplier which was not included as part of the original contract between us – we will not be liable to pay you any compensation but will offer you such advice and guidance as is reasonable in all the circumstances provided we are advised of the incident within 90 days of the occurrence. We will not be responsible where you do not enjoy the holiday or suffer any other problems because of a reason which you did not make us aware of when the holiday was booked. In all claims of whatever nature we will not be liable where the alleged loss or damage results from any of the following: a) the fault of the person affected or any members of their party; or b) the fault of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday which we could not have predicted or avoided; or c) an event or circumstances which we or the supplier of the service in question could not have predicted or avoided even after taking all reasonable care; or d) the fault of anyone who was not carrying out work for us (generally or in particular) at the time. Important notice in respect of limits on liability. Our liability will also be limited in accordance with and/or in an identical manner to: a) The contractual terms of the companies that provide the transportation for your travel arrangements. You acknowledge that all of the terms and conditions contained in those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ form part of your contract with us, as well as with the transport company and that those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ shall be deemed to be included by reference into this contract; and b) Any relevant international convention, for example the Montreal Convention in respect of travel by air, the Athens Convention in respect of travel by sea, the Berne Convention in respect of travel by rail and the Paris Convention in respect of the provision of accommodation, which limit the amount of compensation that you can claim for death, injury, delay to passengers and loss, damage and delay to luggage. We are to be regarded as having all benefit of any limitation of compensation contained in these or any conventions. You can ask for copies of the transport companies’ contractual terms, or the international conventions, from our offices: Red Sea Holidays, 2nd Floor, 4 Snow Hill, London EC1A 2DJ. The promises we give to you regarding the services we have agreed to provide or arrange as part of the contract, and the laws and regulations of the country in which your claim or complaint occurred, shall be used as the basis for ascertaining whether or not the services in question have been properly provided. If the services in question which caused the claim or complaint complied with the local laws and regulations applicable to those services at that time, the services shall be treated as having been properly provided. Such shall be the case even if the services did not comply with the laws and regulations of the UK which would have applied if those services had been provided in the UK. Where we are found liable for loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions (including money), the maximum amount we will have to pay you and your party is £25 per person in total. We strongly recommend that you and your party take out adequate travel insurance for your particular needs whilst on holiday and for the purpose of these Booking Conditions you and your party are assumed to have done so. Additional help If you or one of your party suffers personal injury, illness or death during the holiday through no fault of your own, we may, at our discretion, give you general and/or financial assistance. We may do this even though the damage may not be the result of one of our holiday services. We will only give you this assistance if you request it within 90 days of the event happening. The financial assistance is limited to £5,000 per booking. If your claim is successful or if you are insured for these costs, you must repay any financial assistance we give you as soon as you recover it. Limitations on our liability Our liability to you for any loss or damage which you may suffer is limited to two times the price of your holiday. This excludes personal injury resulting from the nonperformance or improper performance of the services involved in the holiday, and is subject to the limitation of liability described below. In respect of travel by air, sea and rail, and the provision of accommodation our liability will be limited in the manner provided by the relevant International Convention. You can ask for copies of these international conventions from us. Health and safety standards applicable to the services provided by us under this contract should meet the local standards applicable to your holiday destination. However you should be aware that these vary widely across the programme and may well not match those standards we enjoy in the UK. Any compensation payable by us shall be limited in accordance with the lowest limit allowed under applicable International Conventions governing the services, or the amount you can recover from them under the laws of the UK or the country in which they operate. Transport operators have their own conditions of carriage, which form part of your contract with us. These conditions generally limit the liability of transport operators.

Flights and flight times

The flights shown in our brochure and website are operated by UK, European and international charter airlines. We may change airlines or aircraft types at any time; this does not count as a Major Change. Some flights may need to stop en route. If we know about this in advance we will tell you.

108

Flight times shown in our brochure and website and on your booking confirmation are not guaranteed. Actual flight times are shown on your tickets. A night flight means one that departs the UK between 22.00 hours and 05.59 hours, or arrives in the UK between 00.00 hours and 05.59 hours. You are reminded that Captains of aircraft have absolute authority over the aircraft and its passengers while boarding or in flight. The Captain or other authorised representative of the airline can refuse to carry anyone if they are unruly, unfit to travel, or a danger to the flight or other passengers. If you or any member of your party is refused carriage in these circumstances, the contract between us will terminate immediately and we will have no further responsibility for, nor liability to, you or any member of your party.

Brochure and website accuracy

We publish our brochure and website information many months in advance. As far as we know, all the information is correct at the time of publication. However, circumstances can change after publication, so our team of experts check regularly to see if we need to update the descriptions, information and prices shown. We will tell you of any changes that we know about when you book your holiday. If you have already booked, we will tell you of any significant change in circumstances that would affect your holiday as soon as we can before you leave.

Data protection policy

When you make a booking with us, or contact us to request information, you agree that we may collect, use and disclose personal information about you and the other people on your party for the purposes described below. The personal information we collect may include your names, contact details, travel preferences and any special needs, disabilities or dietary requirements. You are responsible for ensuring that other members of your party are aware of this, and consent to your acting on their behalf in dealings with us. How we use your information We use your information for the purpose of providing you with our services, including your holiday, flight or insurance. This includes passing your information to third party suppliers, such as hoteliers and airlines, and to customs and immigration authorities. This may involve sending your information to countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA), where controls on data protection may not be as strict as in the UK. We may also collect and process your information for other purposes described in our registration with the Information Commissioner’s Office, and disclose this information to our sister companies, to companies who act as ‘data processors’ on our behalf, or to credit and fraud agencies (some of whom are located outside the EEA). These purposes include: customer care; compliance with legal requirements (including passing your information to public authorities); detection and prevention of crime; customer purchasing preferences; market research and analysis; and direct marketing. We may monitor and record telephone calls for training and quality purposes, and for preventing/detecting crime. Direct marketing We may contact you by email, post or telephone with details of holiday offers, brochures, new products, events or competitions from Red Sea Holidays. Our website will assume that you to agree to email communications when you make a booking. If do not wish to receive such information, you can ask a sales adviser at the time of booking, use the ‘unsubscribe’ option in our email, or write to us at Red Sea Holidays, 2nd Floor, 4 Snow Hill, London EC1A 2DJ. Once properly notified by you, we will take steps to stop using your information in this way. Your rights You are entitled to a copy of the information we hold about you, and to correct any inaccuracies. A £10 administration fee applies, and you should write to us at the address on your booking confirmation.

Complaints

If you have a complaint about your holiday while you are away, you should tell the accommodation management or the airline staff immediately. If they are unable to resolve the problem, you should contact our resort representative straight away and we will do our best to assist. If our resort representative is not available, you should contact us directly by phone, fax or email. If we are unable resolve the problem at the resort or during your flight, and you are still not satisfied on your return to the UK, you must notify us in writing within 35 days of your return from holiday to allow us to investigate your complaint properly. You should send your letter to our Customer Services Department at Red Sea Holidays, 2nd Floor, 4 Snow Hill, London EC1A 2DJ. If you do not give us the opportunity to resolve any problem locally by reporting it to the supplier, our representative or by calling/faxing/emailing us, our ability to investigate the issue could be seriously hampered, and we may not be able to deal with your complaint on your return (unless there is a valid reason why you did not inform us). You can, of course, pursue your claim elsewhere. Disputes about your holiday that we cannot settle can be referred to arbitration under a special scheme administered by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. The scheme provides a simple and cheap method of arbitration based on documents alone. It does not apply to claims over £5,000 per person or £25,000 per booking form. A limit of £1,000 per person applies to any part of a claim for personal injury or illness. You must apply for arbitration within nine months of your return from holiday, but in special circumstances it may be offered outside this period. Information regarding complaints may be shared with other tour operators.

YOUR HOLIDAY PRICE Lowest price guarantee

We don’t think you can find our holidays elsewhere for less, but if you do, we promise to match the lowest available brochure price and beat it by a further £10. The price-matched holiday must be for a minimum of two full-fare paying passengers, and based on:  brochure price  identical party size and mix of adults, children and infants  identical duration, board basis and room type  Charter airline flights departing within 4 hours of the Red Sea Holidays option The holiday must be available to book – we will require proof of availability at the claimed price. This guarantee applies to ABTA/ATOL bonded tour operators’ brochure priced holidays, excluding insurance, and booked more than 12 weeks from the date of departure. It excludes scheduled flights and low cost airlines, last minute deals, special offers, travel agent discounts, and group discounts. To claim a price match, you or your travel agent must advise us of the claim prior to confirming the booking, and provide proof of the availability of the holiday at the claimed price at the time of booking.

Pricing your holiday

The price panels in the brochure show our basic leadin prices per person plus the supplements for some common upgrades and options. The price includes taxes, Air Passenger Duty, aircraft insurance, security, fuel and other associated costs. These prices are influenced by many factors including currency exchange rates, economic conditions and suppliers’ costs, so we review prices regularly. Very rarely, and only when we cannot avoid it, we may have to alter prices or introduce surcharges. Much more commonly, however, our prices will go down. For this reason we always recommend you visit our website, give us a call or ask your travel agent to confirm our latest prices. To help you compare the prices in our brochure, please note the following:  Lead-in prices shown are per person based on two adults sharing (unless otherwise specified).  Prices are correct at time of going to print, but are subject to change and may go up or down.  Flight supplements may apply; see Flight Information on page 112 for details.  Child prices are subject to sharing accommodation with a minimum of two full fare paying passengers per booking. They are either “guaranteed” or “from”. Where they are “guaranteed”, the child price specified applies. Where they are “from”, prices vary by date and by number of children on the booking.  Room upgrade and board basis supplements shown are per person, per night (unless otherwise specified).

Room supplements

Unless otherwise specified, the prices in this brochure are based on 2 adults sharing a standard room, and the specified board basis. Other room types and board basis options may be available at a supplement, which is shown in the price panel. For a detailed quotation, including these supplements, visit our website, give us a call, or ask your travel agent. Children and infants do not count towards occupancy levels, so it may be more economical for a single adult travelling with children to book the first child at the full adult rate. A “Single Parent Saving” of £75 will apply in this circumstance. Where single rooms are available, a Single Room Supplement is shown, stated as per person, per night.

What your price includes

Accommodation Prices as shown in the price panel, plus any room type or board upgrade requested, and any under-occupancy supplements that apply. Meals As detailed in the hotel description. Flights Return flights from your chosen UK airport to the specified destination. Flight supplements may apply;

these vary by route and date. See page 106 for details. Luggage allowance A minimum of 20 kg per person (excluding infants). Resort transfers Return coach or mini bus transfer between the airport and your hotel. Representative service You will have full representative service from the dedicated Red Sea Holidays resort team. In addition, the price includes:  Taxes known at time the brochure was published.  Air Passenger Duty (APD).  Aviation fuel costs at time of booking.  Charges for security, aircraft insurance, and associated costs.  ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) – the price of your holiday includes £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution we pay to the Civil Aviation Authority. This provides financial protection in the unlikely event of our business failure.See “Prices” in the Booking Conditions for further detail.

What your price does not include

Travel Insurance It is a condition of travel with us that you have adequate travel insurance. This should provide cover for emergency medical treatment and repatriation to the UK. You will be liable for any costs that we incur as a consequence of you not having travel insurance. See Booking Conditions. Surcharges See “Prices” in Booking Conditions. Credit card charges A fee of 2.5% applies to bookings made by credit card (3.0% for American Express). This is to help cover some of the high fees that the credit card companies charge us. There is no fee for payments by debit card. Locally collected taxes and visas There are no entry or departure taxes in Egypt currently, but purchase of a tourist visa may be necessary. See Passport and Visa Information. Optional excursions Unless pre-booked in the UK with Red Sea Holidays. Excess baggage charges Charges will apply if you exceed your aircraft baggage allowance. There may also be additional charges for sports equipment. In-flight meals Airlines provide an in-flight snacks and beverage menu, which is payable on board. Local charges Your hotel may charge extra for some optional items; see “Local Charges” below.

Local charges

There may be additional charges for some optional services and facilities at your hotel. We have indicated in the hotel descriptions where these apply, but examples include:  Hotel-run kids’ clubs, baby-sitting, meals for infants, highchairs and cots.  Premium brand drinks, speciality teas and coffees and freshly squeezed fruit juices.  Selected à la carte menu items or use of certain restaurants and bars at All Inclusive hotels.  Use of restaurants and bars at All Inclusive hotels, outside specified serving times (eg late night bar service)  Safety deposit facilities, room service, mini-bar, premium TV channels, telephone calls and internet access.  Facilities such as sun loungers, indoor pools, spa and massage facilities, sauna, table tennis, billiards and other sporting equipment.

TO BOOK CALL MALVERN WORLD TRAVEL 01684 562406 malvernworldtravel@hotmail.co.uk

At other hotels child prices vary by departure date, duration and number of children. Infants A £50 flat rate applies to children aged less than 2 years on the date of their return flight. Infants do not receive a separate flight seat or baggage allowance (see Flight Information “Infants” section). The hotel may charge extra for cots, etc. Child price conditions  Each child must be between age 2 and 11 or between age 2 and 12 years old on date of return flight, as specified on the hotel/ship price panel.  Each Infant must be under 2 years old on date of return flight.  You must book the holiday based on the child’s age on the date of the return flight. For example, if you book a child fare for a 12 year old who would turn 13 before the return flight, the child price no longer applies and you will have to pay the full adult fare plus any admin charges before departure.  Child prices apply subject to sharing a room with minimum of 2 full fare paying passengers per booking. For instance, for 2 adults and 1 child, the child qualifies for a child price. For 1 adult and 2 children, the first child would be charged the adult price, and the second child would pay the child price.  Children must pay the full adult deposit. No deposit is charged for infants.  Children must pay any flight supplements and room upgrade supplements that apply.

Please call us for details or ask your travel agent.

Special Requests

If you have a special request prior to departure, such as a room on a particular floor of the hotel, we will pass this to the airline, hotel or other supplier. Provision of the special request is at the supplier’s discretion, and it will not constitute a term of your contract with us.

Great for adults

We have highlighted hotels that are great for adults. There may be children in the hotel, but where indicated, it is primarily focused on the adult market, with a corresponding range of features and facilities.

Family Friendly

We have also highlighted hotels that are great for families. These have been chosen based on the children’s

110

facilities and entertainment, and “child-friendliness” of the hotel buildings, grounds and beach.

Kids’ Clubs Maxi Kinder Club All Red Sea Hotels offer a free hotel-run Maxi Kinder Club for 4-12 year olds, either in the hotel or in an adjacent Red Sea Hotels property. The Maxi Kinder Club offers a range of daytime play, entertainment and activities, children’s pools and playgrounds. Soft drinks, lunch and snacks are included.

Please see the itineraries on page 24 for more details.

Diving

Diving is a great way to experience the Red Sea, and many hotels have diving centres nearby or on site. For your safety, we recommend that you only use dive centres with an internationally recognised accreditation such as PADI or SSI. Reputable dive centres will be happy to show you details of their certification. Our partner diving centres, Aquarius Diving and Sinai Divers are each certified by PADI (www.padi.com). You will require a medical certificate to dive. This can be obtained locally at a charge. Diving courses are offered subject to weather conditions, and to a minimum number of participants, so may be subject to cancellation. Our diving packages include transfers from your hotel to the diving centre, and equipment as specified. Package prices do not include lunch, local taxes and national park fees, which are payable locally. Text books will be required for any PADI course. These can be purchased locally. Certification and log book fees will also apply to any PADI course; these are payable locally. The Advanced Open Water course is only available to suitably qualified divers. Proof of prior certification will be required. Daily dives are only bookable by qualified divers. You must present an internationally recognised certification and log book. Daily dives do not include equipment. This is available to rent locally. Important: you must not dive in the 24 hours prior to travelling by air.

TRAVEL ADVICE Passport and Visa information

Passport For travel to Egypt a full 10 year passport is required for all British, EU and EEA members, with at least six months validity beyond the return date of your holiday. The name on your passport must match the name on your ticket or you may not be able to travel. All children who are already included on a valid British passport need to hold their own passport if they are to travel abroad. Children who were included on a passport before 5 October 1998 may continue to travel with the passport holder until either: the child reaches the age of 16 years; or the passport in which the child is included is replaced or amended resulting in a new passport. If you are over 16 years and do not yet have a passport, you should apply for one at least six weeks prior to your departure date. The Passport Service will need to confirm your identity before issuing your first passport and they may

also require you to attend an interview. General passport enquiries should be directed to the Identity and Passport Service. Please visit their website: www.ips.gov.uk or telephone 0870 521 0410. Advance passenger information The UK Government e-Borders scheme requires that we collect your passport or identity card details before you travel. As above, it is vital that the names on the booking match the names on your passports. Entry Visa Hurghada: a visa is required for all British EU and EEA citizens. This costs around £15, can be obtained on arrival, and should be paid for in Pounds, Euros or US Dollars. Visa stamps can be purchased from our airport representative to avoid queuing, subject to availability. Sharm el Sheikh, Dahab and Taba/Taba Heights: purchase of a visa is optional for all British, EU and EEA citizens. No visa is required to stay within the resort area itself or to take a boat trip from the resort. A visa is required if you go diving, or to visit any other area of Egypt such as Cairo or Luxor. Visas can only be purchased at the airport. Visas are also required for excursions to Israel or Jordan; please ask your rep. For up-to-date visa costs and requirements, please contact the Egyptian Embassy on 020 7235 9777. Currency The local currency in Egypt is the Egyptian Pound (EGP) often written as LE. At time of going to press, there are roughly 9 EGP to 1 Pound Sterling. The Egyptian Pound can only be exchanged in Egypt through banks or bureaux de change (many hotels have these). Pounds Sterling, Euros and US Dollars are widely accepted, though change may be given in EGP. Major credit cards are widely accepted. ATMs are available in all major resort centres, and in some hotels. Your bank or credit card company may charge transaction fees for card payments overseas, and also fees/interest on cash withdrawals; please check before you travel. Travellers cheques are not widely accepted. They can usually only be cashed in main bank branches, which may be some distance from your hotel.

Health precautions

Inoculations There are no compulsory Inoculations required for visiting Egypt, but advice can change, so please take health advice about your specific needs as early as possible. Sources of information include: www.fco.gov.uk, www. hpa.org.uk and www.nathnac.org.uk, your GP or a specialist clinic. Sun The sun in Egypt is much more intense than in the UK, and severe sunburn is possible within a very short time. Take plenty of sun tan lotion with you, apply it regularly, and limit your sunbathing at first. Remember to reapply sun tan lotion after swimming. Watch out for redness and sunburn and don’t be afraid to cover up with a hat or T-shirt. With hot sun and a seaside breeze, it is extremely easy to get dehydrated without noticing. Watch out for signs of heat exhaustion or sunstroke (drowsiness, dizziness, headaches and nausea) and drink plenty of nonalcoholic fluids. Remember, you can get sunburned or dehydrated even in the shade! Hygiene Washing your hands regularly, and especially before eating and drinking, is one of the best ways to avoid picking up bugs. Drinking water Tap water in Egypt is not safe for drinking. You should only drink bottled water, which is inexpensive and widely available. Avoid ice in drinks, and ideally, use bottled water when brushing your teeth. Note that locally produced bottled water can have a higher mineral content than that in the UK. Insect bites Biting insects (including mosquitoes) are common. Insect repellents can be useful in helping to prevent bites; the most effective are those containing DEET. You can also reduce the risk by wearing clothes that cover your skin, including your arms and legs, especially during the evening and at night. Travel advice The Foreign and Commonwealth Travel Advice Unit issues frequent updates for those travelling outside the UK. You can check the latest travel advice at www.fco.gov.uk


Many hotels offer a degree of accessibility for holidaymakers with restricted mobility, such as ground floor rooms, lifts, level public areas, and beachside promenades, but few are equipped with specific disability-friendly features such as wheelchair ramps and accessible bathrooms. In addition the terrain and layout of resorts can be difficult for wheelchair users. It is important that you advise us of your particular needs so that enquiries can be made about the suitability of resorts, accommodation, and transport before you book your holiday. Some special arrangements may require an extra charge. If you do not tell us in advance about special needs or requirements that would affect your holiday experience, we cannot compensate you should we fail to deliver them. If you require assistance at the airport or on your flight, let us know and we will pass on your requirements to the airline. Large print versions of our Booking Conditions and Holiday Information are available on request. For support or advice prior to booking, please contact our Customer Service team on 0845 313 9949 or ask your travel agent.

Weather and natural disasters

Egypt has a relatively stable climate, with year-round sun. As a desert climate it can get cold inland at night. It does not rain very often, but when it does it can be very heavy and can cause flash floods, which may disrupt transport. We recommend checking the latest FCO Travel Advice at www.fco.gov.uk/travel. When a storm or natural disaster occurs, travel and accommodation arrangements may be disrupted. It is extremely difficult to predict the actual path, duration or effect severe weather and seismic activity may have and the effects of actual or threatened bad weather and natural disasters are beyond our control. If it is forecast that a storm or natural may affect one of our destinations, we work with local and international authorities, our Health and Safety and resort teams and local agents to try to minimise disruption and keep you well informed. In the event of changes to your holiday due to actual or threatened bad weather, we are unable to offer any compensation. Please refer to our Booking Conditions, for details of our responsibility to you in these circumstances.

Volcanic ash guarantee

Red Sea Holidays is committed to looking after its customers in every eventuality. Our new “volcanic ash guarantee” is just one example of that dedication.  We will contact you directly to keep you up to date with all developments  If overseas, a member of our resort staff will contact you personally to offer help and assistance  We will get you home as quickly as possible. Should you have to stay in resort, we’ll cover the cost of your hotel accommodation and board* so you don’t have to claim anything back upon your return.  We will get you away on your holiday as quickly as possible.  Should we have to cancel your holiday, we’ll help you secure an alternative holiday on a later date or offer a full refund. *We will pay for your accommodation and board on the same basis as your original booking. This will be at the same hotel wherever possible but if circumstances require it, we will arrange alternative accommodation of an equivalent standard

YOUR ACCOMMODATION Hotel ratings

Ratings help to give an overall indication of hotel quality. Official star ratings standards vary greatly between countries, and sometimes even between resorts. For this reason, the main rating shown for each hotel in this brochure is a Red Sea Holidays Sun rating. We review all our hotels based on customer feedback and our own inspections, and award a Sun rating consistent with the standards expected by our UK customers. We also display the official star rating for each hotel for your reference.

Room types

The rooms in our hotels are grouped into room types offering a particular size and range of features. The specific rooms are described on the hotel page, but a

summary of the main room types and what to expect is shown below. Please note:  Hotels do not use standard definitions for room type. We have named our room types to give consistency across our range of holidays, but the hotel may use a slightly different name for the specified room.  We do not offer all room types at all hotels. Standard Room Room will contain a double bed (this may be two single beds made with double bedding) or two single beds (twin beds) where specified. Superior Room These vary by hotel. Typically they will have similar facilities to a Standard Room, but may be larger or have added features, such as balcony or a sea view. Single Room A single room assumes one person in the room, and may contain a single bed, twin beds or a double bed, depending on the hotel. Family Suites We offer family suites at the Makadi Palace Family Star. These sleep up to 6 people (a maximum of 3 adults), and include a master bedroom, separate sleeping area with twin beds, and a living area with sofa bed. Suite/Junior Suite A suite will usually have a separate bedroom and lounge/living area. A junior suite will be an open-plan bedroom with a comfortable seating area. Layout varies by hotel. Rooms sleeping 3 or more Some hotels offer rooms that sleep 2 adults and up to 2 children, in a combination of double/twin plus sofa beds, rollaway beds or camp beds. These rooms may not be any larger than a standard-sized room so space is likely to be more limited. If you require any additional information on room layout, please call us or ask your travel agent. Sea / Pool View In some rooms that have a pool or sea view, the view may be partially obscured by plants or trees. Rooms with a partial pool or sea view may be positioned at an angle to the view. Inter-connecting Rooms Where indicated, hotels can offer adjacent rooms with a connecting door, ideal for families and groups. These are subject to availability and a small supplement will apply. To find out more, please contact Customer Services on 0845 313 9949 or ask your travel agent.

Single supplements

If a single person occupies a double room, they will be asked to pay a “single supplement”. Hotels price their rooms as doubles and they do not reduce their price if they are occupied by a single person, as their costs for the room do not change. Where specific single rooms are offered, these may be smaller and with slightly different facilities to a double room. The supplement for a single room is usually less than for a single person occupying a double room.

Dining

Board basis & restaurant choice The board basis, restaurant choice and meal service is described in each hotel description. Where there is more than one restaurant in the hotel, meals included in the board basis will generally be taken in the main restaurant, and will usually be buffet style. Breakfast will be a continental style buffet unless otherwise specified, though a range of cooked and cooked-to-order items is often available. À la carte restaurants Reservations may be required for à la carte restaurants. Meals at à la carte restaurants may be charged extra, though some dishes may be available within your board basis. Dress code As a courtesy to fellow guests, hotels require guests to wear a shirt/T-shirt, trousers and shoes/sandals in their restaurants. Swimwear is not permitted. The dress code for evening meals is usually smarter than during the day. We advise you to confirm the details with the hotel when you check in.

Air conditioning

Air conditioning is provided in almost all of our hotels. This will usually be operated via a thermostat in your room to enable you to increase/decrease the amount of cooling in summer or heating in winter.

Other guests

TV channels

Many hotels feature satellite TV in your room. Some have additional pay per view channels and there may be channels with adult content. We advise that you take the same care and supervision of children’s TV viewing as you would at home. We cannot guarantee the availability of English language channels.

Holiday Information

Travellers with disabilities

All Inclusive holidays

All Inclusive holidays are a great way to relax and get the most out of your holiday without having to worry about extra costs. Here are some tips so you know what to expect, and to make sure you get the most from the experience: Identification Many hotels will issue you with an ID card, bracelet or necklace. This must be shown when ordering drinks meals and other services. Don’t lose it as there may be a charge to replace it. Meal times Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and the availability of snacks, ice cream and afternoon tea/coffee are subject to specific serving times which will be advised by your hotel. Drinks Locally produced alcoholic and soft drinks are included in the All Inclusive service. Imported drinks, premium brands, speciality teas and coffees, fresh fruit juices, and in some hotels, bottled mineral water, are usually charged extra. Drinks are usually served by the glass; you can expect to pay extra if ordering by the bottle. Alcoholic drinks The All Inclusive drinks service is available subject to specified serving hours. These will be advised by your hotel, but are typically from 10am to midnight. Freely available alcoholic drinks throughout the day can be a temptation to over-indulge; please have consideration for your safety, and other guests, and remember that the hotel management can refuse to serve someone they believe to be intoxicated or under age. Behaviour We and the hotels reserve the right to withdraw All Inclusive services from any guest whose behaviour, or whose children’s behaviour is upsetting the enjoyment of other guests. Continued anti-social behaviour may lead to us and the hotelier terminating your contract and asking you to leave the hotel. What’s not included Additional services and facilities not specified in the All Inclusive features may incur a charge. Not all bars and restaurants in each hotel are available free of charge. Some restaurants offer an All Inclusive menu plus additional menu items at an extra charge. Bars and restaurants may charge after a certain time (eg. late night opening, typically after midnight).

Entertainment and sports facilities

Some entertainments and sports may incur a charge if not included in an All Inclusive package. Outdoor sports and facilities, for instance watersports and outdoor catering, are offered subject to weather conditions. All sports and leisure facilities are subject to availability, and there may be a system restricting use of some facilities to ensure that all have an opportunity to enjoy them. You may be required to pay a refundable deposit. Age and height restrictions apply to some activities, and some activities are not open to younger or unsupervised children. Activities such as watersports are considered hazardous activities by some insurance companies. You should ensure that any activities you wish to participate in are covered by your insurance policy.

Swimming pools

Swimming pools vary in size and shape. They can also be fresh or salt water. Every pool is different so we recommend you familiarise yourself with the layout, how to get in and out, and the location of shallow and deep ends before jumping in. Unless otherwise specified, swimming pools are not heated in winter. Swimming pools that are advertised as heated in winter are heated at the discretion of the hotel management, based on their individual hotel policies, swimming pool characteristics and

111


Holiday Information

the prevailing weather conditions. For example if the weather turns cool unexpectedly it can take up to 3 days for a swimming pool to be heated fully. We also ask you to use the pool’s shower facility to help keep the pool clean and healthy. For your safety, don’t swim after you have been drinking alcohol, and do not swim after dark or when the pool is closed. Children should always be supervised by a responsible adult.

Water slides and features

Age and height restrictions may apply to slides, flumes and other water features, and some may not be suitable for weak swimmers or those with certain medical conditions, so please check carefully before using. Children must be supervised by an adult.

Safety in your hotel

You should familiarise yourself with the fire procedures in your hotel (including location of emergency exits) and the locations of the swimming pool and any steps within the hotel grounds. Children should be supervised at all times, especially near water and on balconies.

Hygiene in your hotel

Hygiene and food safety are of prime importance to us and the hotels we work with. We liaise closely with the hotels to ensure that the highest standards are maintained. The standards of food hygiene and water cleanliness at all Red Sea Hotels and Grand Cruises accommodation are monitored and checked by the UK based company Check Safety First (www. checksafetyfirst.com).

Upset stomach

It is not uncommon to suffer a stomach upset when on holiday abroad. Prevention is better than cure, so always wash your hands before eating and drinking, avoid under-cooked foods, ice in drinks and spending too much time in the sun, and drink lots of bottled water. If you do get an upset, the hotel can usually arrange a consultation with a doctor. You may wish to ask your pharmacist for advice on remedies to take with you to resort.

Smoking

All UK airlines operate a total smoking ban. Most of the hotels and ships we feature also have a no smoking policy in hotel rooms and public areas. Please ask at the time of booking if this is important to you.

YOUR RESORT Safety in your resort

Egypt is a safe place for tourists, but crime is a fact of life in every country, so please take the same care for your safety, and that of your belongings, as you would at home. Take particular care in busy towns and at temples and sites of interest. Please see your representative for tips and advice on local customs, bartering and staying safe in resort. Avoid approaching or feeding cats, dogs, birds and other animals as they may scratch or bite, and can transmit diseases.

Beaches and the sea

Beaches may have rocky areas and rough coral sand. They also get very hot in the sun. We recommend wearing beach shoes. Beach shoes are also recommended when in the water as it can be difficult to see areas of sharp coral. Some beaches are man-made and positioned away from the shore to avoid coral reefs. Access to these is via a jetty or pontoon. Beaches may not be supervised by a lifeguard, so take extra care when in the water.

Resort service

All our brochure holidays include the service of the Red Sea Holidays resort representative team. Our team of English-speaking representatives will greet you at the airport, accompany you to your hotel, and invite you to a welcome and orientation meeting held the following day. Your representative will also be on hand daily to answer questions, help you get the most from your holiday, and to assist should you have any problems. Your representative will let you know when they will be at your hotel, and how they can be contacted in an emergency. Their details are also displayed on an information noticeboard in your hotel. If you have a complaint about any aspect of your holiday, please let your representative know. They will do everything they can to liaise with the resort team and the UK Duty Office to solve the problem as quickly as possible and minimize any inconvenience.

Building work

Some areas of the resorts we feature are still expanding

112

and being developed, so there may be building or construction work taking place in the vicinity of your accommodation. There may also be some general refurbishment taking place in your hotel. We have no control over such work, but it is important to us that you are aware of any significant building or refurbishment that may be going on during your stay. When we are informed of any such work we will tell you at the time of booking or, if you have already booked, we will contact you before departure. Please refer to the Booking Conditions.

Restaurants, Bars and Nightclubs

Most resorts have a wide range of restaurants, bars and nightclubs in addition to those in the hotels themselves. We have included some examples of these in our resort guides. The examples listed are for information only and do not constitute an endorsement or recommendation by us. These establishments do not form part of your holiday package, and we cannot accept liability for the quality of service offered, or any issues arising from them.

Religious sites

When visiting religious sites such as mosques, monasteries and churches, you will be expected to cover up, wear long trousers or skirts, and in some cases a headscarf. You may also be required to remove your shoes. If you have any doubts, simply ask your representative what is appropriate.

Ramadan

Ramadan is a period of Islamic religious fasting that lasts for around 30 days. During Ramadan, some cafes and restaurants will close between sunrise and sunset, and there may be restrictions on the serving of alcohol. Service in our hotels should not be affected. Ramadan dates: 28 June-27 July 2014.

Taxis & limousine service

Local taxis are widely available in the resort areas. Always agree the fare with the driver before you get in the taxi, and do not pay until you reach your intended destination. For security reasons, only authorised vehicles are allowed into hotel grounds, so you can only hail local taxis outside the hotel, and they must drop you at the hotel gates. Most hotels operate a limousine service. This is a private taxi service licensed to access the hotel grounds and may be more expensive than using local taxis.

Tipping

Tipping, generally known as Baksheesh, is standard practice in Egypt, not just for tourists. You will be expected to tip porters, waiters, pool attendants, barmen, boat crew, coach drivers and taxi drivers – anyone who offers you any type of service or assistance. The general rule is to tip little and often. It is advisable to keep plenty of small change/notes for tipping purposes. People will accept £1 and €1 coins, but the US $1 dollar bill is a popular choice: it can be exchanged in banks, unlike foreign coins! On our Nile Cruises we offer a voluntary service where your representative can collect an amount from you daily and distribute on your behalf.

Travel outside your resort

For your safety and security, transfers from one area to another, for instance an excursion outside your resort, may be escorted by a military convoy. Departure times for these transfers are beyond our control and subject to local conditions.

Nile cruises / multi-centre holidays Access Access to Nile cruise ships is by gangplank, with some uneven areas, and it occasionally requires crossing another boat to reach the river bank. Ask your representative for assistance if needed. The ships are also on several levels. For these reasons, Nile cruises are not recommended for people with walking difficulties. Sightseeing When sightseeing it is advisable to take plenty of bottled water and wear sensible footwear as the ground can be uneven. Binoculars are useful, as is a torch for the darker tombs. Flash photography is often prohibited to protect the monuments. There may be charges for photography or use of video cameras. Itineraries The tour itineraries involve some early starts and long days to make sure all the sights are fitted in. Changes to the scheduled itinerary and excursions may occasionally be necessary due to operational issues and local conditions such as water levels, cruise boat traffic, site closures and road conditions.

Other guests Nile cruise ships and coaches used on multi-centre holidays are shared with guests from other countries.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Photography

Some of the general photography used in this brochure, for example close ups of spa treatment or children playing, were shot on location and not at a particular hotel or resort.

Data protection

We have the highest regard for the security of your personal data. In order to provide you with products and services, we must pass selected personal information relating to your booking, including disability or dietary requirements, to trusted partners, suppliers and government agencies. This includes sending data outside the European Economic Area, where controls on data protection may not be as strong as in the UK. If we cannot pass on your details, we will be unable to process your booking. Your details may also be used for analysis, improving customer service and, very occasionally, for crime prevention. Booking with us means that you consent to us sharing your personal information as described. Telephone calls to Red Sea Holidays may be recorded to help us improve our customer service.We may occasionally contact you by post, telephone or email to update you on Red Sea Holidays’ latest products, services and offers. We do not pass your details to other companies for marketing purposes. If you don’t wish to receive such information, please contact Customer Services on 0845 313 9949.

The above applies only to services supplied by Red Sea Holidays Ltd and does not apply to services featured in this brochure that are provided by Holiday Extras or any other company.

ATOL – your financial protection

When you buy an ATOL protected air package or flight from us you will receive an ATOL certificate from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our Air Travel Organiser’s Licence number 9749. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) will ensure you are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money you have paid to us for an advance booking. For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk. The price of your holiday includes the amount of £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices but will be shown separately on your confirmation invoice. If you book arrangements other than a package holiday from us, the financial protection detailed above does not apply.

FLIGHT INFORMATION Carriage of infants

The airlines’ minimum age for infants varies, but is typically between 2 and 6 weeks. Infants aged 0-24 months are carried based on sitting on an adult’s lap. There must be at least one adult for every infant travelling. The infant may be seated in a car seat, subject to booking a flight seat, availability and the airline’s car seat regulations. The price for the flight seat will be based on the adult seat-only price, but discounts may be available. Contact Customer Services on 0845 313 9949 or your travel agent for details.Airline regulations require children aged 2 years and over to occupy a seat. Children aged 2 years and over on the return flight must pay the stated child price for the holiday.

Travelling while pregnant

Airline rules differ, but most require a medical certificate of fitness to travel for women who are 28 weeks or


Passengers with disabilities

Passengers with reduced mobility, wheelchair users, and the visually impaired should contact Customer Services on 0845 313 9949 or your travel agent prior to booking to confirm the availability of any assistance you may require at the airport. If you do not request assistance in advance, we cannot guarantee that the service will be available on the day, as there is limited availability at most airports. Carriage of wheelchairs Wheelchairs must be carried in the aircraft hold and collected in the baggage reclaim area. Your wheelchair will be carried free of charge in addition to your normal baggage allowance. Airline liability for loss or damage is limited, so you should ensure that the wheelchair is adequately insured. Electrically powered wheelchairs will be accepted for travel, subject to the general conditions of carriage outlined in the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations. The regulations relate to the batteries in the wheelchair. The electric wheelchair must be easily stored in an upright position when collapsed. The battery must be disconnected and the terminals insulated to prevent accidental short circuiting. Travelling companions Any passenger who is not “self-reliant” according to the Department for Transport (DFT) code of practice definition, must travel with a carer. The DFT defines someone as not being self-reliant if they cannot take care of all their physical needs in-flight independently. The carer must book their ticket at the same time, and can travel with a maximum of 2 passengers requiring assistance. Visually impaired passengers Egypt is not a listed country in the Pet Travel Scheme (PETS), so charter airlines will not carry guide dogs.

Emergency exit seating

Safety regulations require that anyone sitting in an emergency exit row be willing and able to operate the emergency exit. We are unable to allocate exit row seating to children or passengers with disabilities. If you are seated in an exit row and have concerns about this, please speak to a member of the cabin crew.

Fitness to fly

If you suffer from certain medical conditions that mean you may require assistance from the airline, you may need permission from your doctor to fly. You should contact the airline directly if you have concerns over your fitness to fly. If you suffer an accident or illness in resort, a fitness to fly certificate will be needed for the return journey; please contact your resort representative.

Flying after diving

It is dangerous to fly immediately after diving. You must not fly within 24 hours of diving.

Tickets

You must have a printed ticket to travel. If you do not have a printed ticket when you check in both for the flight from the UK to Egypt AND the return flight from Egypt to the UK, the airline is entitled to refuse you boarding the flight. We cannot accept responsibility in this situation. We will endeavour to assist you in making alternate travel arrangements, but any costs or loss incurred will be your responsibility. How and when you receive your printed ticket depends on when you book your holiday: Bookings made more than 4 weeks from departure Your tickets will be sent approximately 14 days prior to your holiday departure.

Hand luggage

Most airlines allow only one item of hand luggage per person, subject to a maximum weight of 5kg, and no bigger than 45 x 28 x 22cm. You will be asked to show your hand baggage when you check in. If it does not meet these criteria, you will have to check it in. Monarch Airlines flights allow one piece of hand baggage no bigger than 56 x 40 x 25cm and no heavier than 10 kg, plus a small duty free bag from the departure airport OR two separate pieces of hand baggage, as long as the combined size is no bigger than 56 x 40 x 25cm and the combined weight no heavier than 10 kg, plus a small duty free bag from the departure airport.

Safety in the air

We always try to help you enjoy your holiday flight as much as you can, but we also have to look out for the safety and comfort of all the passengers on a flight. For that reason, the airlines we use have the right to refuse travel or impose additional conditions of carriage on any passenger who:  Is intoxicated or disruptive  Is caught smoking on the aircraft  Makes inappropriate remarks, such as indicating that they may be carrying a bomb, gun or other weapon. Passengers who are refused travel will be responsible for arranging alternative travel at their own expense.

Holiday Information

Smoking

All UK airlines operate a total smoking ban. Smoking on board is against the law and punishable by a fine.

Deep Vein Thrombosis

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition where blood clots develop in the veins of the legs. Sitting still for a long time may be an underlying factor in this, so air travel can result in developing DVT. Passengers can reduce the risk of DVT by wearing compression socks, walking around, and doing some simple exercises. Your airline will provide details in their in-flight magazine. Some people may be more at risk than others, so we recommend that you seek advice, for instance from the UK Department of Health (www.dh.gov.uk) or consult your GP.

Holiday extras

We offer a range of pre-bookable holiday extras to help you to a stress-free start to your holiday: Airport Hotels Get your holiday off to an early start and get an extra hour or two in bed, too, by booking an airport hotel for the night before you depart. Prices start from £19.50 per person. Airport Parking Secure airport parking is available at all UK airports. Prebook your parking and not only can you save money, but there is one less thing for you to worry about when you reach the airport. From £2.99 per day.

In-flight meals

Monarch and Thomson Airways each offer an optional in-flight catering menu, payable on board. The menu includes a variety of hot and cold snacks, plus soft drinks and alcoholic beverages.

Flight times

All flight times in this brochure are shown in 24 hour clock time. They are correct at time of going to print but are subject to confirmation and alteration.

Airlines (Operating Carriers)

In accordance with EU Regulations we are required to advise you of the airline(s), known as the operating carrier(s) (or, if the operating carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we will inform you of the identity of the operating carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. Any change in the identity of the airline, flight timings and/or aircraft type will not entitle you to cancel or change to other flight arrangements without paying our normal charges except where specified in our conditions.
