Like many travel companies JOURNEYS, was forced to make alternative plans for our travelers who had planned to visit Egypt in the past two weeks. We are happy to report that while every Egypt-bound traveler was required to change plans we were able to negotiate alternative itineraries in Jordan, Israel, Morocco and Turkey. We were able change and re-route everyone’s plane tickets without penalties.  JOURNEYS and our operators made all land payments for Egypt fully applicable to alternative arrangements in other countries.  No clients were stranded in Egypt. No travelers who had planned to travel were denied the opportunity to utilize their vacations for an interesting, professionally -arranged trip.  For those clients who purchased travel insurance there will not be any extra out of pocket expenses associated with changes.

We have no special insight into the duration of the present leadership crisis in Egypt, but we are confident that our local guides, operators and representatives will again be hosting clients as soon as it is safe and attractive to do so.  When you are comfortable and ready to visit Egypt, please give us a call we have a great and honorable staff ready to offer a spectacular experience.

Our programs in Morocco, Jordan and Israel continue to operate as planned and we anticipate that Tunisia will be safe and attractive very soon. Those of us who have traveled to destinations in the wake of dramatic events or shortly after shocks to local tourism, know that this is often a special opportunity.   The first foreign travelers back are always given a special welcome.  There are bargains in the markets and restaurants, no lines or hassles at immigration and tourist sites and  your choice of flights in and out.  We look forward to offering you that opportunity in Egypt soon. ww
