Travel Visas

All countries require a valid passport (with a minimum 6 months validity). Contact your local embassy, or consulate for the most up-to-date visa requirements, or see your travel agent. It is your own responsibility to have the correct travel documentation. Visa requirements for your trip will vary depending on where you are from and where you are going. We keep the following information up to date as far as possible, but rules do change and sometimes without warning. While we provide the following information in good faith, it is vital that you check yourself and understand that you are fully responsible for your own visa requirements.

EGYPT
Many nationalities including all Western European and Arab countries, USA, Australia and New Zealand are able to obtain a one-month single entry visa on arrival at Cairo International airport (follow directions to the visa payment desk on arrival at the terminal and have your cash ready) or at the Egyptian land border. Look for windows (marked "banks") selling these visas in the area where you line up to have your passport stamped. You need to get the visa before entering the passport line. The visa is a sticker which you need to stick into your passport before handing it to the authorities for stamping.The cost is USD15 or equivalent in EUR/GBP. All change will be given to you in Egyptian Pounds. Please note that for other nationalities it is necessary to organise your visa before you travel. It is vital that you check the conditions attached to your particular passport and make the necessary arrangements in advance.

JORDAN
For groups the Jordanian visa is free of charge and will be organised during your ferry journey from Egypt to Jordan. Not all nationalities automatically qualify for this free visa on arrival, and it is vital that you contact your local embassy or consulate for updated information according to your passport nationality. As this group tour ends in Amman and group will not be departing together , you may need to retroactively pay the 20 JOD visa when you depart (either at the airport in Amman or by a land border crossing).
If you are departing Jordan by air, no departure tax will be required as it is already included on the air ticket. if you are departing Jordan by land there is a 8 JOD departure tax .
