Egypt

April 28th to May 5th 2003

Relaxing vacation package in Sharm el-Sheikh. You wont find detailed informations in this section, since we have not had the possibility to deepen our knowledge of the country and people. We have chosen an offer by Borsa Viaggi (check the Links section) in a small hotel: Aida Beach Hotel. Nothing special, you will find several negative reviews over the internet. As usual it depends on what you expect to find. We were interested in saving money. The hotel is not next yo the beach, it has a beach shuttle, but advise not to choose its beaches. Better to catch a taxi (very cheap) and go to Shark's Bay or other more famous beaches, well equipped and with a splendid reef. Compliments to Egyptian-international kitchen of the hotel. For the evening you must move by taxi: the market of old Sharm deserves a visit, so it does Na'ama Bay, but do not expect anything exceptional. For the excursions, if you have participated to other vacations packages, then you already know what to expect: the locally organized ones are very expensive and do not give you the possibility to freely explore the places. In conclusion, we suggest a visit expecially to diving lovers.
