They are offering a good deal at the moment - £149 for adults and £55 for children. This is for a fully inclusive 2 day cruise.

Not clear to me from reading previous comments, but does anyone know if you can fly from Larnica to Cairo on the one day trip, or is it just from Paphos, which I believe is a two hour drive from Larnica? Thanks

Possibly going to Protaras in October - does anyone know if the day trip to Egypt flies from Larnica, or is it only Paphos and if so how long does it take to get from Protaras to Paphos airport - I went to Egypt a few years ago and we flew from Paphos which was a mega long day, but worth every minute and I'm wondering if the experience is 'lessened' by adding on the travelling tme from Protaras ie is something from the trip missed out to compensate for the travelling time if you know what I mean!
Thanks. :?:

Hi Gary - Jaimec posted a reply he/she got from info@seaislandtravel.com but that only mentioned the excursion from Paphos. Why don't you try emailing. We booked with an agent in Paphos for the Tuesday flight with Sea Island, but I can definately remember her advising us to book asap as the only other tour that week departed from Larnaca - so there must be one. Good luck with your search as its a fabulous trip.

Hi Saintscully...

I'm definately a 'she'....last time I checked :lol: :wink:

Gary, when I checked out a few companies it was only from Paphos, so it would be an early start and a long day.

If you find anyone departing from Larnaca in September time, please let us know.

Thanks

When I emailed the 2 companies, I was told departing from Paphos.

its typical too...my friends wedding date is the Wednesday at 12 noon (hot!), (happy but sad at same time) We might still go on the Tuesday, day before the wedding and hope we stay awake. Thursday...we might be too hungover :glynis :rofl

If anyone finds one departing from Larnaca and or on a Monday/Friday please let us know.

Thanks a lot

When we did this trip last year from Ayia Napa there were no flights from Larnaca, we had to get a coach to Paphos, we were out of our resort for 24 hours but still very worthwhile!

We're off to Cyprus for a week between the 15th-22nd October, and as a treat we are going to do the day trip to Egypt. Do we need visas or just our passports, and is it worth taking any Egyptian cash for any bits and pieces? Also, could anyone tell me the average trip cost, we are going to sort it out over there? :)
Many thanks

Has anyone been on the day trip to Egypt (flight, sights, cruise and dinner £250pp) which is currently being offered to guests at the Elysium? Was it good, was it bad and was it good value? Respond soonest please.

Hi Sheila

In July I posted a comprehensive review of the trip we did in June, but you'd need to search my posts as I don't know how to post a link I'm afraid. It is an expensive trip, but its worth every single penny.

Hi, I notice that dojoman43 went on the trip with an 11 yr old we would like to do this, but how much is it and do children get a reduction? I would love to take my grandson as we have been to Egypt and loved it, he really wants to see the pyramids.

We are off to Paphos in May and want to do the cruise to Egypt, can some one advise me wether I should book before we go or would it be better to wait until we get there. We will also want to rent a jeep for several days so maybe we could get a good deal on the both, any help please?
