if you are interested in that kind of stuff, like you stated, definitely is worth it. a ticket to egypt is usually $2000 itself so yeah, it's a pretty good deal for 10 days.

This is an excellent price, take it and you will love the things you'll see and make sure you take your camera with you. The air fair alone will cost about $1300 ( if purchased from US) Luxor is one of the most beautiful sites in Egypt and you are making me jealous........Ha Ha just kidding. You will have the best memories of your life .beside it will help you make more of a sound decision about your future career.
