Holiday FAQs

---

Q: I read with pleasure the article about the desert trips in your travel supplement of February, however, I didn't find at the end of the article any recommendations regarding travel agencies that can arrange such trips, which is what you usually do. I would appreciate it if you could send me some recommendations regarding a few such companies.

Most big travel agencies have a special department for desert safaris, however, I would strongly recommend Adventure Holidays, a subsidiary of Travco Group. Tel: (+202) 738-2224 and Minerva Travel and Tours. Tel: (+202) 760-9504.

The trip in the article you mentioned was not organised by a travel agency but by the Egyptian Federation of Tourism Chambers.
