Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the end date of the trip and not older than 10 years.
In destinations requiring a visa, the visa application must be made with the documents specified in the "Documents Required for Visa" list that your agency will provide to you.
To avoid issues with customs police at the border of the country being visited due to torn, worn, wet, and/or otherwise damaged passports; it is necessary to renew such passports and, if the destination country requires a visa for Turkish citizens, to have the relevant visa on the new passport. In case of non-compliance, the responsibility lies with the traveler.
Guests under 18 years of age traveling alone or with only one parent may be asked by the police officer responsible for entry/exit to present a document showing the joint consent of both parents; therefore, we recommend that guests under 18 and their parents pay special attention to this matter.
HEALTH
There is no mandatory vaccination requirement for Turkish citizens entering Egypt. We recommend that you do not drink tap water during your trip and consume only bottled water that has been opened by you for the first time.

Extra tours and activities are organized by our local partner agency with a minimum participation of 20 people and are not mandatory. If the required number is not met, the tours may not take place, or the prices, content, and vehicles used for extra tours/activities may vary according to the number of participants. Additionally, the days and times of extra tours/activities may be changed by the guide depending on whether museums, historical sites, or venues are open/closed and weather conditions.

Triple rooms are subject to hotel availability. In such rooms, the bed provided for the 3rd person may be smaller than standard beds. Triple rooms consist of 1 large bed and 1 extra bed. Since extra beds are foldable or sofa beds, participants who are the 3rd person and/or children booking are deemed to have accepted any potential crowding in the room and the type of bed.

IMPORTANT NOTES
Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for destinations/passports where a visa is required) does not guarantee entry into the country. The passport police have the authority to deny you entry. Küheylan Tur is not responsible for this situation; the responsibility lies with the traveler.
Küheylan Tur acts as an intermediary between the passenger and the airline and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955. There may be risks of delays in scheduled and private flights, or flight times may change prior to the existing tour and flight. Küheylan Tur is obligated to notify passengers of such changes as soon as possible. Our passengers purchase the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change. Children aged 0-2 do not pay airport taxes or airport service fees.
Panoramic city tours included in the tour package are tours lasting a maximum of 2-3 hours, organized for general introduction to cities, conducted panoramically with a guide's commentary from the vehicle, and do not include entrance to museums or historical sites. Panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, may not take place if local authorities do not permit visiting or entering on the scheduled day and time, or due to closed roads caused by any event. Similarly, if weather conditions make it impossible to conduct the tour, Küheylan Tur is not responsible for the inability to perform the aforementioned tours. Some tours may be conducted via public transport or on foot, depending on available options, at points where road access is restricted or vehicle entry is not permitted.
