My thoughts and thoughts from staying at the Golden Hotel: I am writing in Russian for a better understanding of people, especially for those who are on the other side. The rooms are clean, compact location in two-story cottages. People are friendly, without impudent extortion. They honestly perform their duties. At the reception, an intelligent man in glasses (unfortunately, I don’t remember his name) addresses the guests with “you”. The food is of high quality, a lot of meat, fish, various temporary snacks between breakfast and dinner. Pools, slide; rest tourists from Kazakhstan, Belarus, Ukraine, Italy, Germany and Egypt. There are not many of the latter. Eight minutes walk to the beach. Sunbeds are in abundance, the pontoon is short, the depth is 20 m at once. It is impossible to dive - the water is too salty. Corals are scarce, there are fish who love corals - the nearby municipal beach for $ 3 for the whole day. However, you are not allowed to bring any drinks with you. You can only buy there. The hardest currency in Egypt is one dollar. Stock up, no one gives tasks.
Now about the main thing: excursions...
Respect to "CoralTravel" and personally to the guide-singer (really), handsome Ismail. He will explain in an accessible form, with respect, why excursions from CoralTravel are better than ordering on the street. He has $125 for a trip to Jerusalem. Israeli girls standing at the border weed out many. We have to return to Egypt with nothing. "CoralTravel" returns the lion's share of the money, and not $ 30 like those who bought the tour on the street. When crossing the border, our bus from "CoralTravel" had a great advantage over others. I noticed it. The number of people who did not cross the border is minimal compared to others. If you are lucky and you will have a guide Arik, a repatriate from Jurmala living in Tel Aviv. He will tell in an accessible form about the Biblical events of the time of Christ. It has colossal power of thought, a few words in English, Hebrew will disperse crowds of tourists, freeing up space for your group. If you want to get into Israeli territory, here are the main rules of behavior at the border: be silent, sincere, dress decently, take all the questions of the border guards seriously, they get nervous if you don’t have a phone. Do not keep anything about Israel and Egypt on the phone, answer confidently. Have about $100 with you. If a lot or a little - do not miss. Personally, they let me in only after the answer that my wife is an oncologist. Take a thermos with coffee from the hotel, (thermos from home), in Israel you will have to pay 3-5 $ for a cup of coffee. Remember: you cannot lag behind the group, the bus will not wait. If someone is absent for 5 minutes, it is considered that he decided to stay in Israel. A taxi to catch up with the bus or to the border costs $400-500.

When returning from Egypt, do not put anything in your hand luggage other than food that can be taken from the hotel. Creams, perfumes, nail files, water, and more are all confiscated.
Great respect to all the professionals who took part in my trip: the beautiful Yulia from Novy Tsuma from CoralTravel, Ismail, Arik, the tour guide - the lovely girl Arina, and many others whose names I don’t remember.......
