мой отдых у тундусов))) my vacation at the tundus)))

19/11-27/11
I'll start in order. We are a couple. We flew to Hurghada. As soon as we entered the airport, an uncle from the Pegasus company ran up to us and shouted to all the tourists from Pegasus to go through the window to get a visa. We quickly passed and received. Then, while standing in line at passport control, they filled out entry cards, well, in general, as elsewhere. There were no problems, everything was very fast, we received our luggage just as quickly and....then it was not at all clear to us where to go. Of course, maybe for people who have not been flying there for the first time, everything is clear that you need to go out and look for your operators, what would they send to the bus, but only we didn’t know this and were a little confused at first, not understanding where we should go. Further, realizing what we needed to look for buses with the inscription Pegasus, we walked a little and stumbled upon a booth, which was just from this glorious tour company, and a shadow was sitting in it (of course, an employee of the company), who directed everyone to buses.
Oooh, okay. found the bus, sat down. We drove not so long, in principle, did not get tired. The hotel is, of course, far from any civilization at all, at first it’s even somehow uncomfortable . . But then, everything returned to normal!

So! We went to the reception, they gave us questionnaires, we filled them out and . . the swing began! After reading the reviews on this site about the Sport Area, they were completely upset. PEOPLE! ! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO STRETCH ON YOUR HOLIDAY, DO NOT AGREE TO THE SPORTS AREA!!! ! THIS IS F. . PA!!!! T. YOU WILL HAVE TO GO TO THE MAIN BODY ON A BUS WITH A BREED (AND VERY COLD IN THE EVENINGS! ! ALSO WAIT FOR IT AND IF YOU SUDDENLY NEED SOMETHING QUICKLY TO TAKE FROM THE ROOM BEING CLOSE TO THE BEACH, YOU WILL HAVE TO WIND KILOMETERS!!! ! there wasn’t much choice, so choosing back in Moscow, we came to the conclusion that we’d calmly give 20 bucks and they’d put us in a normal standard building! But it wasn’t there !! ! We didn’t offer anything ! ! They told us: NO! ! WE CAN'T, BECAUSE IT IS REGULATED IN YOUR VOUCHER (after we even asked the guide to help us, but he said that only a request through the agency, and that the surcharge would be 100-200 dollars. ) !! ! "Then they put bracelets on us and they say "go have lunch for now, and come get the keys! We'll give you a good room! " In general, we ate, we got the key and . . let's go. Of course, it's a little annoying, to go by bus, albeit a little. in short, the most unpleasant sight. bad people, honestly!!
In general, the room was not bad, though the shower was made inhumanly, not fenced off by anything, just a curtain, so after a shower there was water everywhere and it was very slippery!! ! What we just didn’t do, we went asking to be connected, talking, shouting, talking with guides from Pegasus. It’s just that if we didn’t live in such a residential area, it would be easier, but otherwise you couldn’t call the reception, or call your friends, or from the reception, for example, they couldn’t call us at our request, wake us up (they have such a service -free). On the 4th or 5th day, everyone explained to us through the guide that there were problems with the line and that they could only replace the number for us, we agreed to look at it first. Well, in general, the room was not ah, and even with separate beds, we didn’t change anything, and there was no point in it already. They were cleaned every day, but at different times . . Sometimes even by 5 o’clock it wasn’t cleaned, and with what when this zhamshut came to clean up and we let's say we were in the room and we say like "wait 5 minutes! " So he acted like I was asking him for a million dollars. In general, by the way, about the local servants, I want to say that the hamlo works . . There was a case when my friends and I were sitting in an Italian restaurant, and a friend drank white wine, after asking him to pour a third time, probably, the jamshut took it into his unfinished glass of white poured red wine and began to laugh wildly! Well, they probably have such jokes there, although for what reason . . And what is most interesting, I noticed that if a girl is with a man, then they don’t react to her at all, in the sense if you come to bar and ask for something to pour. BUT, on the other hand, they are very courteous to the lonely (in the sense of those who are without men). But if our men go after us, they calmly poured everything for them. OF THE DAY, BUT THEN IT'S JUST RETURNING. AND BY THE WAY THE SYSTEM IS ULTRA NOTHING! ESPECIALLY IF YOU DRINK LITTLE AND DO NOT SMOKE!
YES, I understand, of course, that everywhere there are nuances, and that such a thing is a manifestation of the mentality in Egypt, just for myself, of course, I concluded that this country is the last one on the lists of my holidays, there is simply something to compare with. I am by no means advocating not to go there. don't think! I just write a layer of opinion about this to everyone and the nuances, because anyway, each person will have a different perception, but maybe I’ll help someone with a thread.
FOOD: The main restaurant is always the same, and in principle there is no fish at all ! ! There is only a type of pangasius, zhiiirny as I don’t know what !! ! The rest is all tormented incomprehensibly, such as salads. Long queues for scrambled eggs, pancakes.

RESTAURANTS: 4 free type restaurants with different cuisines. And 2 paid Sea (where they serve lobsters, crab shrimp (dinner for $ 30) and a fish one in which they even cook sushi.
1st is in the main building where the main breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The 2nd in the same place in the main is called the Royal Lounge, so from 19.00 it worked and there were several dishes to choose from. I tried only fish and dor blue, tuna salad is decent, beef is not very good (my friends tried it). And they also made different cocktails there (but also not ah, because from local alcohol, although they must be from several imported types. And if you want them to do everything quickly and normally, just be rude to them and don’t be nice to them, unfortunately they don’t understand pleasantries.
3-Italian - you need to sign up for it 1 day in advance with the aunt in the lobby. There, in principle, snacks are the same as in the main, but hot to choose from. Either a whole pizza (the most delicious with seafood), or pasta with seafood (by the way, I advise you, sooo tasty! ), Or squids (so-so. By the way, it seems to me that they generally caused an upset stomach).
4th Also sign up in advance. BUT! There is nothing decent from food at all, and basically everything is the same as in the main.
From 3 o'clock in the bar at the pool they made lush balls of dough (such as snacks), as well as french fries.
All this was done by a chef in such clothes that even our underground enterprises for the preparation of Korean salads outdid!

By the way, there is a photo of this. There was also an incident that just drove me into a stupor. It means this cook is talking with an assistant, then his glove falls for which he reached into his pocket. He, as if pretending that nothing happened, picks her up from the floor, dresses her (and there are a lot of people waiting in line . . ) and starts flattering the dough with this glove and making these amazing balls! And the waiter whom I asked to wipe the table came up I wiped only two pronounced spots on the table and tried to leave, to which I poked my finger at the rest of the dirt and he, like, without understanding anything, began to wipe in this place where I poked, and not the whole table !!
SEA: In principle, a pontoon, it’s normal to dive, there are a lot of fish, BUT! Very strong wind and waves, it’s not very pleasant to swim in such a storm, and the weather was calm for a couple of days out of 9.
I have seen fish, they are very cute. True, something stung a friend in the neck and his spot swelled up. HINT - if you suddenly feel that something has stung, immediately apply ice and lemon, this is the first aid in such cases. Everything gradually began to pass. Be careful, there are a lot of jellyfish on the shore in calm weather.
There were always enough sunbeds and seats. There was always music on the beach. It’s a pity that it’s darker early and it makes sense to sunbathe only until 3 o’clock, then it becomes sharply cool. After sunset
Swimming is prohibited.
ANIMATION: Well, this is generally commendable! All animation in Russian. 4-5 people animators who entertain the already relaxed audience from morning to evening. In the morning, gymnastics on the beach, dancing, games, volleyball and all that. And in the evening various competitions, performances. In general, the girls are just smart!!! ! as well as one boy with them, also very talented!
Also in the evening there is always live music at dinner, and the man sang in different languages, and the girl in Russian.
There were few foreigners, mostly Russians, Ukrainians. There were foreigners with blue ribbons.

About the city and travel. Our nice guide told us that a bus runs from the hotel to Hurghada and costs from $ 8 per person round-trip, but he did not warn us that you need to sign up for the bus in advance at the reception. Without knowing this, we gathered (the guide even gave us a schedule), came to the bus, and they told us we need a ticket . . and they explained to us what and how. But fortunately, we were lucky to get into such a situation together with other people (a couple) who told us how to get to the city cheaply and quickly. Then we even went together, don’t think, there’s nothing wrong with that. We went out of the territory of the hotel, a car passing by immediately stopped us (we didn’t even taxi) and calmly drove to the city with seven for $ 10 in total ! ! In the city, of course, in general, beep. complete for those who do not know how or do not want to bargain, because their prices are 3 times too high! ! But getting back is no problem! they also honk there themselves constantly, beckoning. Just don’t take a taxi, they charge a lot at the rate. Taking into account the fact that they have 4 liters of gasoline, it costs 1 dollar.
By the way, the hotel has some types of excursions, they are 5-10 dollars cheaper than the guides. Of course, I don’t know where it’s better. We rode in the desert on ATVs, we really liked it from the hotel barkers (not guides). The guides took utopia to the island for $ 40 per person (the tour is basically so-so, especially if you are afraid to dive or snorkel. There is nothing to do on the island itself, well, look like taking a picture if, and then there are a lot of people there and sand with shells, so in any case, if you are told that you do not need to take shoes (it is better to take special slippers for walking on corals in any case). It is impossible to walk barefoot on this sand!
Masks can be bought for 6-7 dollars in Hurghada, slippers as well, do not buy more expensive, bargain until the last !!
I wrote a lot of things, it’s probably tiring to read all this, probably. ALL DEAR MY! GO TO A REST, DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE TUNDUS KHAMS, TAKE THEM THIS AND ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL TO EVERYTHING, IT WILL BE BENEFICIAL TO YOU, ALL GOOD LUCK AND PLEASURE REST!!! !
