You can easily request your dream trip via WhatsApp or our inquiry form on the website.

Do I have to pay immediately? <\/div><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

No. With your request, we initially only inquire about your desired trip. We will get in touch with you personally and inform you about the next steps and the available payment options. This way, you know exactly what happens next before making a binding booking.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

After you send your request, we\u2019ll check your preferred date and availability. Then we\u2019ll get in touch with you personally and go over all the important details. Your booking will only be confirmed once everything works for you.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

That depends on the specific trip and availability. Some experiences can also be requested on short notice, while others require a bit more lead time.
Our tip:<\/strong> Just request your dream trip \u2013 even if your vacation has already started. We'll personally check what's possible on your desired date.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Yes, of course. As soon as we have reviewed your request and confirmed your trip, you will receive a personal booking confirmation from us with all the important information. This includes, among other things, the trip, date, meeting point or pickup time, and other important notes for your trip. That way, you'll know exactly when and where your HAYATI experience starts and can enjoy your vacation completely relaxed.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

For many of our trips, pickup from your hotel in Hurghada or the respective pickup area is possible. We will provide the exact pickup information when you receive your booking confirmation. That way, you'll know exactly when and where you'll be picked up.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

We place a lot of importance on personal experiences and keeping our groups as small as possible. That's why we consciously limit the number of participants on our trips. Depending on the trip, a maximum of 10 people can join. This way, there\u2019s more time for personal attention and genuine experiences \u2013 instead of just going along with a big group.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

At HAYATI Egypt, you have personal support available in different languages. Depending on the trip and contact person, German, English, Arabic, and Russian are possible. If a specific language is important to you, just mention it in your request. We will take your preference into account when organizing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

That depends on the particular trip. On the respective trip page, you'll find the most important information and details about what's included. Since our trips are set up differently, we don\u2019t want to give a blanket statement. With your personal booking confirmation, you'll also get all the important information about your booked experience.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Of course, that depends on the trip you booked. In general, we recommend taking sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, and plenty of water. For trips to the beach, you should also remember to bring swimwear and a towel. We'll let you know about any special things you need for your specific trip when we send your booking confirmation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

Yes \u2013 our trips are generally suitable for families with children. Egypt is a very child-friendly travel destination, and families are warmly welcome on our excursions as well. On our boat trips, there is also plenty of experienced staff available. If a child ever doesn\u2019t want to or can\u2019t go into the water, they obviously don\u2019t have to be left alone \u2013 our team also takes care of the little guests on board. What\u2019s important to us is that the whole family feels comfortable and everyone can enjoy the day \u2013 whether in the water or relaxing on board.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
