To Israel from Sharm El Sheikh
Good afternoon! Tell me, please, who went on an excursion to Israel (1 day) with the company "Sinai Voyage" (Gena and Cheburashka). What did you think of it? How safe? Are they responsible for their work?

I went with this company and not only to Israel. This spring I was in Luxor, an excursion with an air flight. I liked everything very much, the organization is at the highest level. And I went to Israel from this company for the second time, since I first went from Pegasus. I wanted to once again calmly look at everything and compare - it turned out in favor of "Sinai Voyage". 1. Visited more historical sites. 2. We walked around the old city at a normal speed, not running. 3. They went to the shops just enough so that it was not to the detriment of the excursion program. Not so with Pegasus. About the difference in price: at Pegasus - $160 - this is at a discount, at "Sinai Voyage" - $75. The level of communication is also in favor of "Sinai Voyage", they have everything in order with the Russian language, they are very polite and friendly.

Similarly! She herself recently asked the same question .. she stopped at Gena and Cheburashka. They are the closest from our hotel .. 3 minutes drive. We signed off from our homeland .. agreed to meet. any reception to the Egyptian room for free and they offered to come and pick us up at the hotel and took us back .. moreover, we asked for a ride a little further from the hotel in Soho .. no problem. We were traveling with them to Israel. There were people from different hotels on the bus and the price...180,150,110,95,85..AND ONLY WE HAVE 75
The bus is super. The guide Yana told everything very interestingly. Before that I went from the hotel for 230 dollars .. I didn’t like it so much honestly. So don’t worry everything is safe and comfortable. I just returned from Sharma a week ago. Thank God I’m alive and well!

These Sinai and Cheburashki suck, my friends went with them, the prices are the same, but in real life they increase. And at the top they wrote themselves, they promote themselves.

yeah ... and I didn’t imagine that I would become an Egyptian Cheburashka overnight ...))
about "in real life they raise prices": people who bought a trip from different Egypt are collected in the same bus. tour. companies and at different prices. all, basically, contribute only before. payment and final settlement takes place on the bus. they will really try to withdraw more money from you on the bus (they are Arabs!), therefore, even if you did not issue receipts with the price at Gena's office, just insist on the price announced earlier! or demand to call Gena directly from the bus. works 200%. although it is up to you to decide with whom exactly to go.

I also traveled with Sinai Voyage. No problem.
I contacted them at home by e-mail, and I liked how thoroughly and kindly they answered all my questions.
Then I called them from the hotel - they sent a car, brought us to their office for free, drove us for free - so we also got a trip to the night Sharm as a bonus ;-)
As for prices - as always in Eastern countries, a flexible approach - in the new price list the price was $ 85, I say - "it was 75!" - "well, let's get 75" :-) (and one of the fellow travelers boasted that he bargained for 70).

the east is a delicate matter ... I went for 65, there were just two of us + I bought more excursions from Gena. and immediately specify what exactly is included in the price. for example: boat trips, does the price include the rental of masks and fins, lunch, etc...

Cheburashki doesn’t suck at all, dear .. they still have a significantly cheaper service and a decent culture of services! And your friends simply didn’t react objectively. .let them continue to use hotel services)))

Thank you all very much for your replies! Somehow it became calmer, because. I constantly took excursions from my (from whom I was traveling) tour operator.

Excursion to Israel costs from $65. No prepayment is needed, you agree in advance on the Internet and that's it, the price will be the one that was discussed. The main places to book in advance. If so, write.
