Travel Companion/s for Egypt/Jordan, Oct.-Nov. 2010

[Tripchick]

I (female, 41, non-smoker) am planning a trip to Egypt & Jordan in Oct.-Nov. 2010 and seeking like-minded travelers who want to come along so I don’t have to go by myself. Budget accommodations will be used and I hope to find at least one female travel buddy who would be willing to share accommodations with me to reduce hotel costs. I have researched a phenomenal itinerary which can be broken down into manageable parts so anyone interested can do the portions they like with me. The trip segment costs will depend on which ones we do together (from 4 - 43 days total) and the number of travelers in our group (2-6 people). The trip is perfectly timed to be at Abu Simbel for the Sun Festival (Oct. 22) and in Egypt's most sacred city, Abydos, "gateway to the afterlife", for Halloween (Oct. 31)!

Egypt highlights: Cairo, Giza Pyramids, Saqqara, Dashur, Memphis, Suez Canal, Valley of the Whales, Aswan, Abu Simbel Sun Festival, Luxor, Dendarah, Abydos, Western Desert oases safari, Alexandria, Mt. Sinai, St. Catherine's, & Red Sea.

Jordan highlights: Wadi Rum, Petra, Shobak Castle, Lot's Cave, Kerak Castle, Wadi Mujib Nature Reserve, Madaba, Dead Sea, Bethany, Mt. Nebo, Jerash, & Amman.

Sorry, but I need to hear from anyone interested in traveling with me by JUNE 25, 2010 as I've been looking for travel buddies for three months now. The tour operator I've chosen requires a 30% deposit by JUNE 30, 2010 because hotels book up early for the Sun Festival in Abu Simbel each year. So, if you are interested, see all the trip details at www.tripchick.wordpress.com or leave me a message here. Thanks very much!
