Good afternoon everyone.
Sooner or later I'll be able to go to Africa on a hunting trip. Where and what for, I have plenty of time to figure out, but a thought struck me today. Has anyone visited Egypt before or after going on their hunt? I've always wanted to go there and it's one of the places my dad has always regretted not taking me to see. He went there with my mom in the 1980s, for work with the US Corps of Engineers on devising plans for solar power installations I believe, and they made a little vacation out of it. I, of course, wasn't in the picture yet, and despite having been as far east as Turkey, we never got to Egypt (or to Jerusalem, where he's always wanted to go). I figured that since I'd be going on a Great Adventure to the African continent in the first place, why not take advantage of that and go to the one country in Africa I've wanted to see since I was five. I think ending the journey with Egypt would be the best idea.
Biggest problem I can see is guns. Egypt doesn't like guns. From what I can understand, people traveling into Egypt with guns must leave them in the custody of Customs/the police for the duration of the visit and I'm not too keen on that idea. What could I do about my guns if I wanted to make it a single trip and wanted to avoid leaving them in the hands of the Egyptian authorities even just for a few days?
Regards,
