I want to say right away who goes to Egypt for the sake of the sea - this is your hotel. The sea for every taste, there is a sandy beach with a gentle entrance, there are magnificent corals, there is a rocky section of the coast where the waves will wash over you. The bay in which there are practically no waves and the open sea. Ships are forbidden to swim in the bay and only windsurfers, and the catamaran cut the waves, frightening swimmers in masks.

A huge territory with a hint of landscaping, although if you move away from the building, you will plunge into a real desert.

The food is edible, but monotonous, the fruits were always mostly oranges (very tasty) grapefruits, bananas, melons, dates, rarely watermelons and strawberries. Draft honey jam, yogurt is very similar to homemade baked and raw vegetables. Very tasty cheeses, it is felt that they are natural. Rice pasta potatoes. We don't eat meat, but we saw what it was : -). A lot of pastries, rolls, cakes, although I tried them once or twice, they are delicious.
Juices from bags, tea, besides black, also aniseed and mint. Anise helps digestion - I recommend it, I only drank it. Ice cream Nestle (delicious) free of charge from 15-00 to 17-00 in the Italian restaurant. I don’t know what kind of alcohol, I don’t drink, but it seems like everything local is free, but there is no other.

Animation mainly for Italians and cool evening programs for children. Volleyball on the beach is super, a good company has crept up, table tennis two tables, billiards, two tables are all free. two tennis courts are free of charge, but racket and ball rental is 5 euros per hour. The gym is brand new and free of charge. The sauna is already open, but I didn't go there.

Guide Turteza Hamdi fully justifies the first 3 letters of his name. Excursions are expensive. And it drives such a blizzard to other companies that they say you won’t return alive. IN ADDITION TO THE SAME ABOUT INSURANCE THE Noodles are hung on the ears. It's like they're the only ones you're insured with.

Read your insurance from a travel agency, you are insured for the entire duration of your stay in Egypt, no matter where you are and with whom you eat. But the prices really differ. We went on an excursion to Cairo and Alexandria, the same program as Teztour, plus we had dinner on the ship with a 2-hour Nile cruise, which Teztour does not have and paid only $ 100 against Teztour's 150. The bus is the same Mercedes with air conditioning and a toilet, the difference is only in price. We also went to the monasteries of St. Anthony and Paul on an individual tour, the abbot himself took us around the monastery and we talked with him for a long time in English, but it was also possible through a guide in Russian. It cost 50 per person (there were three of us), against 55 for a group tour in turtese. We also slept for 3 hours longer, because a passenger car is much faster. Motosafari cost $30 against $55 in a teztour. Although tertuz brings people there too. After all, there are only a few owners of ATVs in Hurghada and all agencies rent cars from them.
Therefore, do not let yourself be fooled, buy a mobile phone card for 40 pounds in any scratch shop, call Ibrahim 0124977686 (hima2003eg@yahoo. com) and say that you are on the recommendation of Sasha from Kyiv and ask you to call back. Don't forget to say hello from me. He studied in Kharkov, speaks Russian normally and his wife is Ukrainian. A normal guy, not even greedy, which is rare for Arabs, just likes to show off. But punctual, they always came for us on time. And enjoy excursions at a normal price with a good attitude. If you need a taxi, he has a taxi driver friend in Hurghada, his name is Yaser, a good guy, he took us to monasteries, it will be cheaper than others. And in general, what you need to buy will prompt and show, and you go to buy it yourself, if you want, he doesn’t take a rollback, like the rest, and then bargain until you’re stupid.
He also makes excursions to Jerusalem with Sharma for only 130 USD. e. and for two days with an overnight stay 240 c. u. i. e. , it's a full ball.
In Petra and around will make you cheaper and super.

By the way, a call from a mobile phone to Ukraine costs only about 4.5 pounds, and locally up to 50 piastres, 1$ = 5.46 pounds, and piastres are a cop. The cheapest operator in Hurghada.

Have a nice holiday
