I was in Sharm last autumn, but my friend went to Jerusalem. She bought at the hotel for 220 USD. We drove about 3 hours to the border. They passed the border quickly within 1-1.5. Back is also relatively normal, did not queue for 6 hours like some tourists. It was just luck. She arrived delighted. In the spring I went with another friend, she bought it on the "street" for 150. Everything is the same - and without incidents, but her husband went to Cairo and bought a tour there, but the bus came small with uncomfortable seats, and he is a tall man - in in general, horror was tormented ... You won’t guess ... a matter of luck, although the seller talked about a large and comfortable bus ... in general, you can’t believe them.

Everywhere in Sharm there are private travel agencies. There are in Strarom city and in Naama Bay. Prices are completely different, you need to bargain as when buying any thing. I don't remember the name of the agency. We were prompted by a boy who called for a massage at the hotel. Then we learned that it was possible to buy for 130 and 110 dollars. But you need to be careful, because if you are called a very small price, then incidents are possible ... i.e. take at an average price for at least some peace of mind and confidence.

Ladies and gentlemen!!! We take excursions only at the hotel! And no objections!!! Ato then you will tear your hair where it does not grow!!! Egypt is a caravan - a bazaar! Nobody is responsible for anything. Therefore, be very careful and vigilant. especially on excursions.

Closer will be from Taba. But if the trip falls in the winter, then Charm. Buy only at the hotel. It's not worth the risk.

rested in Sharm in April, was on an excursion to Jerusalem. Bought at the hotel for $ 230, the trip is tedious, 3 hours to the border, 2 hours passed the border, another 3 hours drove to Jerusalem. the sea itself and there is an opportunity to buy inexpensive cosmetic products from the minerals of the Dead Sea in the shop. Impressions from visiting shrines are a personal matter, depending on your religiosity. One piece of advice - do not buy souvenirs in the store where the guide will bring you, on the way to the Temple of the Lord you will pass through the bazaar, everything is 3-4 times cheaper there. Take dollars in small denominations - no one gives change up to 5 dollars.
Take a lot of water on a trip - 2 liters per person at least, wear comfortable shoes and, on the way back, when crossing the border back to Egypt, go to duty free - there is the cheapest alcohol. Yes, the Tah free system works in Israel, at the border they return the amount of VAT in cash.
Have a nice rest.

A one-day excursion to Israel from Sharm is a quiet horror ... First, 2 hours before Taba, then ALL NIGHT we stood in the crowd in front of the Israeli border, then a gallop excursion to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher DID NOT BE ABLE, because it closes at 19:00, and we were kept before that for an hour and a half in a souvenir shop. And then ALL the second night we stood in the crowd in front of the Israeli border to get back to Egypt .. And at the expense of the cost, we lived in a 3 * hotel, so they told us the price was 110, of course, I bargained for 100. But we were traveling on the bus people who paid much more for this horror! Some tourists from 5-star hotels sold it in general for 250 bucks per person)))

We were on this tour in October of this year, the ticket was paid when buying a tour (tour operator Capital) cost 140 USD, if you buy at the hotel from your guide 200 USD.
I liked the tour very much, we stood at the border for 1.5-2 hours, it’s impossible to say in advance how much time you will spend at the border, it’s like luck - we were lucky ...
Have a good rest!

Were in mid-October (recently), though from Hurghada by plane to Taba, then bus. We took the tour from our own TEZ for 340 USD. from a person. We flew in 40 minutes, by bus for about half an hour, and then the most interesting - 6 !! hours at the border in a terrible crush, which I dare not call a queue. This nightmare ended with the dawn, the mood was completely spoiled when it turned out that a group of 48 people were loaded into one bus without a toilet. But the ancient shrines and the Dead Sea remove all the negative, because. the energy is just amazing, the places are very interesting. We did not regret that we went! I support the advice about the store where they will take you. We were stingy there (we didn’t know about the market), and then we saw that we had overpaid a lot. We crossed the border back in 20 minutes)))

If you leave the resort area, the tour operator does not answer for anything. It was verified that they personally bought a trip to the pyramids in Sharm themselves, ended up on the same bus with those who bought tour operators from representatives, the difference was only in cost almost twice.

We bought tickets at a local agency for $100. With us on the bus (very good) were tourists with vouchers at a price of $ 90 to $ 150. But we did not travel long: it was on a clean Thursday before Easter. Crossing the border and getting on excursions was very problematic. This was honestly told to us by the guide who accompanied our bus. Therefore, the tour did not take place, and the money was returned to everyone in full. But I don't regret it. Some time later, I visited there with a sightseeing tour: 11 days throughout Israel. Israel is worth it to go there for more than a couple of hours.

the excursion is good, but only if you take it for 2 days, for 1 day it is very difficult (be sure to take water with you in Israel, it’s very long), and there’s not much to see. I took all the excursions in the city in the Egyptian state excursion company, my friends gave me the number of the general manager of the company (he speaks Russian), everything is much cheaper than the guide, and they gave me a good discount, but the quality is the same. for 1 day jeresalem costs 80 bucks now.

The tour is certainly very entertaining, but also very tiring, be sure to consider this. But I still recommend you go!

June 2010 - excursion to Jerusalem from Sharm - exactly 100 bucks. We bought an excursion to Naama Bay at a street agency - we bargained and the price was reduced to 90 bucks. (for hotel guides - 230 bucks). The tour is super, the program is the same for everyone. I advise. Nastya

We went with a company of 7 people with the company of Vova tours in the old city to Jerusalem 80 bucks, quad bike safari 25 bucks, Colored Canyon + Blue Hole 45 bucks and diving to Tiran Island 40 bucks. Have used this company's services before. All tours went great. Only positive emotions and a huge pile of photos remained! On an excursion to the Colored Canyon there was a wonderful guide Shrif and a groovy driver "Merry Schumacher". Had a great time!
I tell everyone about this company and recommend it. And we will definitely use it again.

From Sharm el Sheikh, two tour operators are sent on an excursion to Jerusalem: join up and anex tour. Prices in different hotels are different, but in the end everyone is collected on the same buses and on the way. I paid 95. The organization of the tour is good. Everything is on the list. For a long time we gathered people from hotels until the bus was filled. It took 3 hours to get to the border. All checks at the border took 4 hours. It is very tiring to stand in all these lines. Many were not missed. They require to show phones / smartphones, check personal files, photos, videos, contacts, correspondence, etc. It was good near the Dead Sea. Swim + you can buy good cosmetics. Further, an even more tedious road to Jerusalem. On the way, the guide sells shirts for swimming in the river right on the bus. Jordan for 10 ye, although in the city itself they are 2 ye. Yes, and in Jerusalem, too, is not particularly interesting. There is practically nothing to see. The same type of architecture, narrow streets, heat, crowds of people. Again, extremely tiring. Especially when you start coming back. It took 1.5 days for everything.

Not true. From the hotel $ 125, on the beach $ 80. The Israelis let in about 50-70%. 4 levels of security and control. Heavily. But it's worth it

If you are lucky in life, then you should go to Israel from Sharm)))
My husband and I were not allowed. And almost all of our bus. We arrived first at the border. Waited for an additional interview for 5 hours. During this time, three of all those who were waiting were called ... Then, when people got to the bus, they took out their passports and sent them back. 50 USD-Egyptian transfer (round trip for one person). 70 returned. Why didn't you like it... Mystery.
In the five hours that we were sitting... We let all the Russians, Kazakhs, Belarusians through.
Ukrainians included families with children and elderly couples.
They check the phone, count money, are interested in work. All those who did not pass were young couples, without children. Or lonely, who left their children, wives at home or in a hotel due to a tiresome event.
What could not please us personally, my husband is unshaven, I do not work (on maternity leave). The children were left with their grandmother (I think that they would not be interested). The latest statistics ... Out of 3-4 buses arriving, one leaves back ((( No explanation.
