Enjoy the ancient wonders of the world with an Insight-ful Egyptian Vacation

Egypt is a place of myth and mystery, a place that entices travellers from around the world with its ancient past and bright sandy future. It is one of the most popular historic destinations to be explored, and this is why Insight Vacations invited an intimate gathering of travel professionals to the University of Sydney Nicolson Museum last week to offer a little insight into the Egyptian offerings that the popular travel operator brings to Australians each year.

In a research study designed and conducted by Insight Vacations, 61 per cent of agents said that they believed that they did not know enough about the Egyptian travel market and 56 per cent of the agents surveyed believed that better knowledge of the country and its attractions will assist them to sell more holidays in Egypt.

Insight Vacations package their holidays in such a way that offers premium information for both agents as they sell the product and for clients who learn while on their trip. This is why Insight Vacations tours to Egypt are considered one of the most superior on the market today. As Insight Vacations Managing Director Lorraine Sharp said: “We offer the premium experience.” Insight travellers to Egypt are taken to the most wonderfully exotic sights in the world with the quality, comfort and absolute style that is trademark of Insight Tours.

These travellers will feel like ancient Pharaohs and their Queens as they sail down the Nile in a luxury river cruise. They will travel on a floating air conditioned oasis that will allow for uninterrupted views through panoramic windows. They will have the luxury of sun bathing on luxurious sun decks before heading to see the most famed ancient sites on the globe.
But travelling with Insight is more than just luxury cruising and relaxation. The professional assistance that Insight Vacations offers means that travellers will get a rounded view of the cultural history of the region.

“We have four Egyptologists as tour directors,” explained Sharp to the guests at the museum. “This allows for a more informed tour of Egypt. Also, the Egyptian museums are included in the cost of the package, something that will complement the tour of the ancient sites that Egypt is so famed for.”

“We also offer a range of itineraries to suit everybody. In face, we have seven different programs to Egypt with all varying styles that run all year around. This is a great selling point because holidays to Egypt are not dependent on the seasons.”

This will be made even easier with the recent announcement of plans by Middle East-based carriers Emirates Airlines and Etihad Airways to double their services to Australia by the year 2011. This plan illustrates the growing popularity of the destination for Australians to holiday – today, more than 15,000 Australians visit Egypt each year and a majority of these arrivals come as a member of a group travel experience.
