How does dinner work?
My husband and I will be going on the small group trip in October. I’m looking forward to a nice dinner at 1902. How does this work with Tauck? Is there a special set menu or can I order whatever I like? First with trip with Tauck, so I’m not sure what to expect. Anyone else going - Oct 13?

I don't believe we ever had a fixed menu- we either had a choice of several mains- meat (beef, chicken, etc.), fish, pasta/vegetarian or off the menu, even at 1902. The most limited menus were at the welcome dinner at the Kempinski Hotel Ishtar Dead Sea and the farewell dinner at the Mena House, but even then you typically had 2, 3 or more choices..
A couple of times we had a family/semi buffet style "experience" dinner or lunch - Mediterranean/Middle Eastern meze- mostly in Jordan- lunch at Khayl and Layl after visiting Jerash, lunch after visiting the Church of St. George in Madaba to see the mosaic map on the floor, and the Bedouin dinner at Little Petra. You had the choice of several restaurants for lunch/dinner at the hotel on the Dead Sea and at the Mena House in Cairo. The Nile river cruiser offered several choices. All breakfasts on land and the boat were buffets. The worst meal by far and worst of nearly 20 tours was the box lunch on the charter flight from Aqaba to Aswan.
If you have dietary restrictions, make sure you tell the TD.
Thank you, AlanS. I’m fine with the shared small plate stuff at lunch, but I want to pick out my own food for dinner! Sounds like I should take some food with me for that flight from breakfast! Thankfully, no dietary restrictions, but when I travel it is to see things, have experiences and eat good food!
