I am planning a 17 day trip to Egypt in 2011 with my adult daughter. I have been communicating with Ask-Aladdin.com but I can't seem to find out if they are a reputable tour agency. I have emailed the Ministry of Tourism is Egypt with no response. Ask-Aladdin has sent me their license no. but it's under the name ENJAZ TOURS. Also, they don't accept credit cards only wire transfers for payment. I have traveled to Greece and Italy and never heard of this. Their itinerary is excellent and would love to book with them if I can just verify that they are a reputable company.

Thanks sf7307 for the past info on ask-aladdin. I would appreciate any current info on ask-aladdin that anyone may have. No one in the other forum mentioned about having to wire transfer payment vs credit card.

When are you leaving?
We are a group of 12(so far) beginning our adventure February 16, 2011. Our trip includes 4 nights Cairo,a 4 night/5 day Nile Cruise, 1 day Alexandria, 4 nights Sharm El Sheikh including an excursion to Mt Sinai, Petra and Amman. When we began our quest we worked with Aladdin through the Ask-Aladdin website. Over the course of several months we made a group decision to go with Treasure Egypt Tours. We specifically wanted to work with Raouf Louis - who has an excellant reputation. Some of us will be meeting for the first time in Cairo but have been in contact, initially through this forum.
Join us if you can.

Hi silverstart 10. We are planning on Sept/Oct 2011 so we won't be able to meet up with your group. I thought Raouf Louis was with Aladdin. I had read that on past forums. Please contact my email once you return to let me know any first hand info on Egypt that would be useful. My email is [email protected]
