As of today Insight Vacations is cancelling April departures to Egypt as the US State Department has not lifted their Travel Warning. Based on current events in Tunisia they have taken the decision to cancel the entire 2011 season.
For all clients booked to travel in April or on any Tunisia date they will offer to transfer your booking to a later date, transfer the booking to another destination or offer a full refund.
Insight Tours is planning to operate Egypt tours in May, conditional on the lifting of the travel warning.
