Полезные советы. Useful tips.

We flew in July, but the mood to write a review appeared only now, I just remembered the local store on the territory of the hotel and I want to say that it’s better not to go there and not buy anything there, the sellers behave disgustingly, impose their goods, literally don’t let you go out of there yet you can’t buy tea, for example, I went in for a diving mask, so I had to pay another 10 dollars for tea, the guides will scare you with scary stories about the local shopping center, which is located directly opposite dessert rose, so don’t believe it, they scared us so much, that we didn’t leave the hotel for a week until all this got to me. One day, I just went out of the territory and went to this center, about which the guide from the biblio-globe told us that they steal money and mobile phones there and cheat for hundreds of dollars, they say puts a hundred in one sleeve and immediately gets ten, like you gave him not a hundred, but ten, so that's all nonsense, I understand that the guide is a fraction of the local store, but this is my guess, I don't know, maybe it's not true. He calmly approached the shopping center, all the sellers speak Russian perfectly, as if they were their own, they love Russians so much that they even gave names to themselves Russians. A young Egyptian comes out and says to me: “Hi, I’m Misha. ” In general, calm, friendly guys, and they will give you tea, just don’t refuse tea, otherwise they are offended, it’s normal for them when a client comes and sits quietly in the store and drinks tea, and at that moment he tells you about his product, I bought perfumes, oils and teas, local herbs and seasoning for meat. There are also cheap leather belts and sunglasses, but they are all Chinese. Good local china, I bought cups for tea and am very satisfied, especially now that it's snowing outside, it's nice to remember. So the summary: Calmly go shopping at the mall and do not be afraid of anything, the main thing is to bargain a little, but without fanaticism. When we arrived, at check-in, at the reception, a guy in pure Russian calmly asked: "Will there be a reward for the room? ". I didn’t understand him, what are you offering me with a sea view? no, he says, I say, but what then, why do you need a reward? I take out 20 dollars and say, if you give a room with a sea view, then there will be a reward, but since it was in July, then they have rooms, like it turned out not, he immediately split up, we don’t have any numbers and gave the usual standard, so be careful with them when you check in, so as not to pay money to the contractors just like that. A tour of Hurghada is one that costs $ 5, this is purely shopping for suckers, you will be taken for half a day in the heat exclusively to your own, those that are in the share, factories and shops, where you will buy the same oils and perfumes that you can buy 2 times cheaper in the shopping center opposite the hotel entrance, across the road, 50 meters. If you go with children, then take an excursion to the sisscope, see the underwater world, just buy not from a guide at the hotel, but on the beach from a guy in a yellow T-shirt, he has 30 dollars cheaper. Be prepared that local photographers will attach to you at the pier and sell you pictures for 10-15 dollars, refuse until the last minute, pretend that you do not need these photos, as soon as you are called to the bus and you turn your back to them and you go to the bus, right there they will beg you to buy these pictures for at least 5 bucks, the pictures are good by the way, I recommend buying them. A cameraman also works on the siskoscope, for $ 15 he offers 2 discs, on one there will be a film with you, how are you on this siskoscope, and on the second disc there is just an educational film about Egypt. If you order a film about yourself, then tell the operator about it right away so that he shoots you more. In general, the hotel is normal, although people say that last year it was even better. The food is monotonous, the menu is always the same, it gets boring after a week, but if you go for a week, then it’s normal, until you try everything, it just works out.
