Do not worry. You are going from some tour operator. Each hotel has a clock when a representative of the tour company that sold you the ticket comes. They will offer you excursions. Lots of deals, different prices. You can ask other vacationers, from other companies how much they have excursions and buy from them. Only, for God's sake, don't buy excursions on the street. It's fraught. And about where to buy an excursion, it's up to you. what do you have more soul for. Church of St. Catherine, Moses (there is a difficult climb and very cold), you can take a trip to Israel or Jordan. Also, be sure to go scuba diving. This is an indescribable feeling. Motosafari. Just don't take all the tours at once. take one thing on the first day. Then we will see. Get to know other vacationers, they will tell you.
As for the language, try to speak English or Italian at the reception, even if broken. They understand))))))) I understand that you will have a rest in Shores. Ours have gold bracelets, the Italians have red ones. You can easily find Russian speakers. And take Russian English with you. It will come in handy;)

So what.
And why don't you care that the hotel is Egyptian and you don't know Arabic?
Or do you think that this hotel has Italian staff?
Or do you think that there are hotels in Egypt where the staff knows Italian well and does not know other languages?

Before buying a tour, you should probably enter at least Yandex from the beginning and read reviews about the hotel. I don’t know spoken English either, I get by with a Russian-Egyptian phrasebook, believe me, it’s enough, by the way the locals are very fond of it, and they are better than if a person tries to speak English with a Ryazan accent, from personal experience.

to [Hotline] The hotel is Egyptian, the owner is Italian. The cuisine is Italian, the animation is Italian. Accordingly, the vacationers are 97-97% Italians. Russian. For cleaners in the rooms and in the garden, you will have to learn only 2 phrases: Thank you (if everything suits you) and Go away (if there are impudence attempts. In the market, sellers also know Russian within your English.
to [mikio8]You probably read that the girl is flying from Italy. So she has the basics of Italian. And this is enough for communication in the hotel. And I don’t agree about Arabic. Of course, they are great when you speak Arabic, they just make fun. Just like we have fun, when they use Russian phrases in the right place and out of place. And when you speak English with them, you become with them one line: neither they are pros in this, not you. besides, you still need to slowly learn English.
Who knows where life will take you. You cannot learn all the languages of the world, but you will always swim with English.
[to svetaler] Don't worry. There are subjects who do not know a single language, and they don't speak Russian very well (especially in the evening after beer and vodka) - and yet they fly and relax

Dear Nata_shine, I still know how to read, the girl wrote "I'm going 1 time in May, I don't know English, almost Italian too" and therefore gave such advice. What if I learned German, and to learn English to go to Egypt once a year is nonsense. Especially when the hotel staff do not want to fulfill your request, then they completely cease to understand your English, I have seen this picture myself more than once. Having learned a number of phrases, I successfully received at the reception what I wanted the first time, and now I always use it. Yes, they smile, I answer them too, and a complete idyll, and everyone is happy.

There are similar situations. I didn’t come across it myself - but my friends ended up in Hurghada. Rudeness and alleged misunderstanding on the part of the staff, ignoring requests. Exit - you come to the hotel guide of your tour operator. In 10 minutes everything is decided. And until the end of your stay they are worn with you like a diamond. They were even moved to another room with a better view. everything is solved :)))))))

As an employee of the tourism industry, she stayed at this hotel.
The hotel corresponds to its 4 stars, the animators are very pleasant, they talked with our girls, went to discos together, in general they are very nice people.
The staff is friendly, the kitchen is normal, I just really like fruits and sweets, there were no problems with the rest either.
We went to the beach on foot, it was even more convenient, next to El Mircato and "1001 Nights" there are shops and a market where we bought souvenirs and sparkling water.
I wish you a pleasant stay.

In general, there is NOTHING to buy or buy for my beloved, except for fruits, but in order for you to say anything, buy a phrase book on the road and learn a little about the essentials. eyes, they say, this cannot be. Read reviews about excursions.

When shopping, feel free to drop the price by two, and insist on your own, although there is nothing special to buy except for copper plates (very beautiful) and papyri. Enjoy the sea.

Yes, you can not get carried away with shopping here. Most souvenirs are made in China. From Egyptian - only papyri, oils, figurines made of stone (sometimes they give out cheap glass or alabaster castings for stone), ugly notebooks made of camel skin and modest camel bone crafts. Be careful with silver - you can buy goods of different quality from one seller - I bought a pretty decent bracelet for myself, but my daughter's silver cartouche was terribly oxidized, although she hardly wore it.

By the way - I was very pleased with eucalyptus oil - it perfectly treats a runny nose. And most importantly, it is very easy to use - one drop per glass of boiling water and you need to breathe in pairs. They took 75 ml, shared it with friends, and it should definitely be enough for another year. It is better to buy oils on a tour of Hurghada. Much cheaper and not diluted.
