Unfortunately, you did not specify where you are flying. If in Hurghada or Marsa Alam (that is, not in Sinai), then you must pay a tourist tax, which is also a visa. Now 25 dollars, from July 1, they plan to 60. If you are flying to Sharm from Sheikh and do not plan to leave the Sinai Peninsula, you can use the Sinai stamp and pay nothing. By the way, it is not necessary to sit at the same time in the hotel. Of the excursions in this case, only Cairo and Luxor are not available, visas are needed ... Farther...

uh ... strange, about the vase. The tax is paid without fail, for each person. If you do not pay, then the hotel must pay from its own funds. Most likely it was included in the total price, and the vase is a divorce of tourists for extra money))) Farther...
Tipping, I understand your business to give or not. But would it be good form in Egypt to pay, purely on the bill with the service tax? And what kind of tax is this, to whom does it go to the staff or the state? We were in a restaurant in Hurghada "Star fish" on the bill with tax came out 146.5 pounds. Left 150. And then the most interesting. The waiter had the audacity to tell me to wait and open the folder with the money in front of me. And then ask for a tip. this is unquestionably bad behavior. I did not expect from such a famous restaurant.

In this country, life is built on tips. And as you correctly noted, giving them is your business. The fact that they begin to beg is one thing. But if you liked the service, regardless of the service tax, why not reward the employee? Arriving at the hotel one day, the suitcases were left at the reception, the employee decided to show the numbers, and then stood with outstretched hand, he didn’t like a couple of pounds, he wanted to get $ 5. But he just didn’t get them. Farther...

There is a hotel reservation on booking.com, for which the cancellation penalty is 100%, although there is still a week before check-in at the hotel. For personal reasons, I need to cancel this booking. They will not withdraw money because the card has been cancelled. Can the booking or the hotel punish me somehow?

Booked through Booking. More than 2 months before the trip. But the owner is already demanding payment for cleaning (it is indicated on the booking, but not included in the price). Is it legal to send it to the forest and pay for the settlement / in fact? It's just dumb that this money will go nowhere, since they are not in the cost payable. And is it legal to refuse cleaning in hotels at all?

Booking gives normal guarantees. If the owner "throws" with the reservation payment, then the booking provides an equivalent hotel for their money. Farther...
