HOLIDAYS TO EGYPT WITH FLIGHTS FROM SOFIA - 7 NIGHTS

Q: What travel documents are required for Egypt and what are the visa regulations?

Travelers require an international passport with at least 6 months validity beyond the holiday return date (traveling with a national identity card is not permitted). For stays up to 15 days confined to the Sinai Peninsula (Sharm El Sheikh, Dahab), a complimentary entry stamp ('Sinai Only') is issued on arrival. An entry visa fee of $30 applies when landing in Hurghada and Marsa Alam, or when taking excursions outside Sinai (such as Cairo and the Pyramids or Luxor). Minors traveling with one parent or a guardian require notarized travel authorization and a birth certificate.

Q: How long is the charter flight from Sofia to Egypt?

Holiday packages operate with direct charter flights from Sofia Airport (SOF) to Red Sea international airports (Sharm El Sheikh). The flight takes approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes nonstop, scheduled in convenient daytime slots to maximize beach time.

Q: What luggage allowance is included in the charter package to Egypt?

Every booked passenger receives a complete baggage package: up to 20 kg checked luggage + up to 10 kg cabin luggage (max dimensions 55 x 40 x 23 cm) + 1 handbag or laptop bag. For infants up to 1.99 years, the allowance includes 10 kg checked luggage, 10 kg cabin luggage, and a collapsible baby stroller.

Q: Which resort in Egypt should I choose – Sharm El Sheikh, Hurghada, or Marsa Alam?

Sharm El Sheikh is the top choice for luxury lovers, sheltered wind-free bays (Naama Bay, Hadaba), and world-famous drop-off coral reefs. Hurghada is ideal for families with young children thanks to expansive, gently sloping golden sand beaches without coral barriers and easy access to ancient Luxor. Marsa Alam is a secluded southern eco-haven famous for pristine crystal lagoons and swimming with wild sea turtles.

Q: Is on-site representative assistance available during the stay in Egypt?

Yes! All Megalo Travel guests are greeted at the airport in Egypt by a licensed destination representative. They coordinate hotel round-trip transfers, host an informational welcome meeting, and provide full support, including assistance with booking optional excursions throughout the 8-day stay.

Q: When is the best time for an Egypt holiday and is it suitable for swimming in winter?

Egypt is a true year-round sun destination with over 300 sunny days annually. Spring (March - May) and autumn (September - November) are peak beach months with air temperatures of 28°C–33°C and sea temperatures of 26°C–29°C. Winters are pleasantly sunny (22°C–25°C), and resorts maintain heated outdoor pools at around 28°C for complete comfort.

For small tips and local bazaar shopping, Egyptian Pounds (EGP) can be withdrawn directly from on-site hotel ATMs.

Q: What are the most popular excursions outside the hotels in Egypt?

Top excursions include: day tours by flight or coach to Cairo and the Great Pyramids of Giza, excursions to Karnak Temple and the Valley of the Kings in Luxor, snorkeling boat cruises in Ras Mohammed National Park, ATV quad desert safaris with Bedouin dinner, and boat trips to swim with wild dolphins.
