Let's start, perhaps, with how you imagine your vacation... What do you want to see yourself. Because it is a very calm and measured holiday, many write that it is a family one... but I would like to say that you can go with small children, as it is very quiet and calm there, but for older children, it probably won’t be very interesting, since there is no animation there.
I agree that the advantage of the InterContinental Hotel is that it is NEW, which means everything is new... The hotel is really beautiful and new, everything is in marble, it shines, everything is in order... The food in the main restaurant is monotonous, but good. . . salads are for everybody.
Knowledge of English is required (at least basic knowledge of the language), since the reception desk does not speak Russian, so in order to resolve any issues that have arisen, you must at least be able to state the problem in English... If you do not know English or Italian, then this is also not a problem, since the hotel has a guide Mohammed, so he knows Russian and is obliged to solve all the problems that have arisen... Immediately upon arrival at the hotel, you need to clarify where your guide will be and how to contact him... This is very important. . .

A very large beach, a lot of umbrellas and sunbeds, no one jumps over their heads... just super... It is advisable to enter the sea in special shoes, which can be purchased right on the beach, where beach towels are issued, since in the absence pontoon you have to go into the sea on the roof of the corals. For those who do not want to swim in the sea with fish, there is a beautiful lake (lagoon) with sea water. Rest is designed for those who prefer just a quiet, relaxing holiday.
The rooms are beautiful, large, the service in the rooms and in the hotels is also very good, so you can safely go and relax.
Now let's talk about excursions. Basically, many tourists go to Taba in order to visit 2 more countries: Israel - Jerusalem and Jordan - Petra.
Let's start with the main one. How many days did you come to rest? If your vacation is designed for 7 days, then I want to say that the 2nd excursions mentioned above will be very tense. Why a question? But because these are bus, daily trips. Although the buses are comfortable, it is still very difficult. They want to show you as much as possible, so everything happens on the run, and the time for all this is limited. relax… The time must be properly planned… And 7 days is not enough… So I suggest to travel for 14 days.
As for the tour to Israel - Jerusalem, it's just super! Be sure to visit this amazing country! Impressions will be just super.
As for Jordan - Petra. It’s a little harder, because you have to walk for 2 hours under the scorching sun, so you should definitely wear comfortable clothes and shoes and don’t forget about a hat… Impressions will also remain very good….
I received a lot of positive feedback. Just a great vacation! Good luck everyone!
