Needed makeup for the wife before the trip to Tabu, and figured we might as well take the tour itself from this agency, because the front desk actually greeted us normally, unlike the place next door where there was a total madhouse — everything got sorted fast, I'd barely pulled out my passport and they'd already emailed the voucher, and right up to the flight there were no surprises. The hotel fed us great, sea was warm, and even with construction going on around, the noise barely reached the grounds, I mostly just lounged by the pool reading, and once we went diving, corals were pretty, but the mask kept fogging up, probably my own clumsy hands, oh well. Came back happy, all smooth, I'll book here again if the price doesn't go up, and the main thing for the wife — to get the same makeup artist, so much talk about her brushes (didn't get it myself, but the person clearly knew their stuff).

handed over my passport for a visa, and well they put us in a bungalow right by the water, opened the door and almost stepped on a dead cockroach, but it even turned out funny, immediately understood that this resort is not for bloggers from finland, Dahab is a whole different feeling than Sharm, here it's like the vibe is in simplicity. The manager immediately talked me out of the hotel with the buffet and crowds of people and for that a separate respect, corals right from the beach in an hour I breathed my fill, fish touch your legs when you stand still, the older kids squealed on a toy submarine bought in an underwater shop and by evening I felt like a human being and not a hunted horse... that's the stuff basically

We went to Marsa Alam for a visa for our daughter, we were recommended specifically this firm because they had no queues and the price for egypt turned out even cheaper than just opening a visa and sitting at home.. we really got lucky with the weather the water in the sea was like warm milk but the corals are close to the shore and I scraped my leg on them on the very first day — but that's my own fault for not looking where I was stepping but otherwise I'm as happy as an elephant

booked the tour right here through them, thought i'd just get a voucher sorted and then Marsa Alam popped up with a decent price, didn't even expect that — went alone, wanted to lie around and dive, the reef goes right from the beach, i swam with a mask for half an hour and was blown away — fish like in an aquarium and live corals. rooms are basic but everything worked, the AC didn't glitch, that's the main thing!! food is usual for Egypt but the cook grilled some whole fish every day, i wolfed it down for two, but in the evening the animation was blaring till eleven, had to get earplugs out, but i was so wiped i fell asleep anyway, came back black as a cinder, because i forgot to put on cream once after lunch...

Went for a certificate of income for a passport — turned out they had a super-hot deal for six. Who else could I have got everything sorted with in one evening, plus they drove us from the office right to the plane, which is what hooked me. At first I almost freaked out about the layover, we sat around in Cairo for three hours. But the hotel in Safaga turned out better than in the photos — by the way, I heard everyone’s got repair guys around now, but here not a single one, and cleaning every day with candy on the pillow. The sea — just a fairy tale, no one around, you walk in and swim among the fish. Or not “just a fairy tale,” but literally glassy water, which is why on the second day I bought a mask with a snorkel for crazy money at a local shop, but didn’t regret it even once.. Got lucky with weather too, at the end of November we were expecting storms, but it was just a breeze, and that’s nice compared to our slush back home. Animation was pushy, but the young ones partied, the older ones quietly lay by the pool, no fighting over sunbeds at all. At the reception, when we forgot the safe code, they swapped the card in two minutes with no extra charge — I thought they’d drag it out. Overall the company did a solid job, and all fair; next year I want to book something in Asia with them, if we don’t decide to fly back to this same bay.

Марса-Алам маған ұнады, бірақ скепсиспен бара жатқанмын. Әуежайдан жол ұзақ, үш сағаттай, бірақ терезеден көрініс — мүлдем бос дала, тас пен күн ғана. Отельді жақсы таңдапты, топ емес, бірақ ақшасын толық ақтады. Ең көп таң қалдырғаны теңіз — тізеге дейін кірсең, айналаңда түрлі-түсті балықтар жүзіп жүр, қалалық демалыстан кейін мүлдем үйренбегенсің. Кораллдарға экскурсияға бардым, маска мен ласты өзімдікі болды, шынымды айтсам — таңғалып қалдым (әдемілігінен де, қолмен тигізіп аламын ба деп қорыққаннан да). Тамақ үш күннен кейін жалықтырды, бірақ күн сайын бір жаңа нәрсе тауып жүрдім — бірде қолдан жасалған пахлава, бірде теңіз өнімдері қосылған сорпа. Анимация мазаламады, айтпақшы, би билетпеді, әдетте бұл мені тітіркендіретін. Аздап күйген бояумен және телефондағы көптеген фотосуреттермен оралдым, бәлкім, бұл ең жақсы көрсеткіш шығар)).

We were getting a passport for our daughter, and figured we'd ask about a vacation too, where to go for a week. We were standing in line at this travel agency and randomly saw a brochure with Taba, there was a juicy photo of the reef, just like in an aquarium. The manager happened to be nearby, recommended this hotel, said it was quiet and fine for a family, and we somehow just agreed right away, didn't even double-check the price. We flew in, heat around forty, but it's easy to handle when it's dry, not like back home in Petersburg. The hotel itself is a bit old, but the grounds are huge, palm trees and those Egyptian squirrels I never did see, but plenty of cats. We went into the sea straight off the pontoon, reef shoes are a must there, I almost cut my feet before I bought some for two bucks from a local guy. The corals really are two meters away, all kinds of bright little fish, my daughter squealed with joy and didn't come out of her mask, I was kinda jealous of her energy. The food at the restaurant was repetitive, but you could always find decent meat or pasta, though there weren't many fruits, the watermelon turned out kinda watery. But the animation didn't bother us, nobody dragged us to discos, and that's a huge plus, we sat on the beach in the evening with a hookah and watched the stars. Came home rested and tan, of course I want more, but this time we were satisfied, no complaints at all.

Packaging of the underwater safari — that's what really got me, I've never seen such attention to detail like they have in the office — they picked us up right from the hotel, the guide chattered nonstop the whole way, but at the same time to the point — told us which reefs it's better not to swim to at all (I remembered everything, honestly). The trip itself — diving and all the rest, but that was enough for me: I held a sea urchin in my hands for the first time, well now I understand, damn it, why they're so feared (the needle almost pierced my glove, what the hell). On the way back we even arrived earlier than expected, which for such tours is generally rare, and I managed to calmly sunbathe, and for that kind of money, when everything is shown to you, chewed and put in your mouth — a five without a doubt, I don't recommend any nonsense.

It all started when my daughter asked for a “real sea” after school and I started looking for something cheaper and without intrusive animation, in the end the choice fell on Dahab on the advice of a friend — she praised the diving and the fact that it’s not some Gagra kind of place, but an authentic Egypt with a lagoon and mountains. The manager was just taking her vacation and was driving past the cliffs to watch diving when I called her to check the voucher — she immediately calmed my worries about the flight with a transfer in Cairo but I kept opening the airline and refreshing the board, already at the hotel I figured out that the light in the room was flickering because of the old air conditioner and that was the only thing that bugged me. Then I got used to it, the water is warm, on the beach my feet didn’t hurt from the corals only you have to swim in slippers, the wifi in the lobby was barely alive — I was staring in horror at the empty news, like we have a system of failures, my husband laughed and said this detox came out by evening along with a mug of perfectly brewed hibiscus at the Bedouin tent, there were so many stars my head was spinning. I rented fins that were scratched but the dive with an instructor right from the hotel — the crystal lagoon like glass, fish in whole schools — this is what made the trip worth it and suddenly getting acquainted with the northern wind, because of which in the evening I had to carry a windbreaker and I always thought Egypt was heat, but this three-day climate shake-up was rather a plus for me. I came back satisfied, as if I’d dropped two years off my life

we were getting a passport for a kid and also asked where to fly in march on a budget, the manager just suggested egypt, but not hurghada but specifically dahab, threw us the idea. thought it would be a backwater, but turned out a decent little dive town and we even ended up taking a couple lessons, people are friendly, the lagoon is warm and theres countless fish by the corals though in the evening the wind is chilly, i bundled up in a hoodie…

Took a tour in October, Egypt, Sharm el-Sheikh. The sea is really warm, like bath water, but in the morning it's a bit chilly, I stepped in hesitantly for the first time. The reef is so-so, well, the corals on one side are gorgeous, tons of fish, and on the other side — no waves at all, water like glass. The manager helped with choosing the hotel, said not to stress about the food, and she turned out to be right — they fed us great, something new every day. I came back really satisfied, like properly recharged, my skin got burned on the second day, though I'm a tough guy, kept applying sunscreen all the time – that part stings a bit. In the evening there was live music in the lounge, sometimes sad, sometimes alright, we stayed till closing. I was too scared to take the desert quad bike excursion, but instead I took a taxi to the old town myself – the vibe there is something else. What surprised me was the lack of crowds of Russians – pleasant. For the money, which I won't say how much, the experience is a hundred percent worth it. I recommend it to everyone, and if you're ever around our parts, definitely this agency:)

Everything went surprisingly smoothly, even though I read a ton of reviews before the trip and was already bracing for a catch. We got a decent hotel in Sharm, the food was so good I gained weight in a week like it was a month, the sea was warm and genuinely calm — that matters to me because I’m a mediocre swimmer. Only thing is, on the coral excursion I managed to step on a sea urchin, they pulled the spine out at the hotel, but my heel still reminds me of it — money-wise it ended up even cheaper than I expected, so I’m happy with the tour and already recommending this hotel to everyone I know, even though it took us over an hour to get there from the airport

Сафага — бұл Хургада емес, тірі маржан рифі жағаның дәл қасында, мен маскамен екі сағаттай жүздім, тіпті санауды қойдым. Агенттіктегі ұйымдастыру айқын болды, барлық трансферлер уақтылы, гид орнында, ешқандай өзімшілдік жоқ, және жергілікті дайвинг-орталық өте ұтымды жұмыс істейді, дегенмен қыркүйекте ауа-райымен сәл дөп келмедік, бірақ бізге бәрібір ұнады.

Tur brali v Kazahstane, na El-Gune byli vpervye i skazhu tak — norm no ne vau. Voda realno teplaya, veter ves den, no eto dazhe spasalo ot zhary, zato na plyazhe etot veter besil — pesok letel v litso poka ela arbuz, prishlos pryatatsya za shezlong. Ochen ponravilos chto net etoy tolpy kak v Hurgade, russkih malo, v osnovnom evropeytsy na velosipedah, da i sam gorodok chistenkiy, priyatno progulyatsya. Ekskursiyu na dayving vzyali pryamo v otele, ne pozhalela — korally zhivye, a vot ryby malovato, ozhidala kstati bolshego ot rifa. Eda v otele srednyaya, no zato uzhin na naberezhnoy — pasta i moreprodukty top, hotya i dorogovato v pereschete na nashi. Vernulas domoy i ponyala chto nado bylo brat na nedelyu bolshe, treh dney na akklimatizatsiyu i oblet obratno malovato, kakaya-to smazannaya vyshla poezdka, otsenka troyak za obschee vpechatlenie.

Lying on the beach in Hurghada and thinking how warm the water is in March + the travel agency in Almaty was picked totally by chance, but the hotel itself, surprisingly, pulled off a solid four with a minus even though I spent all three days nitpicking about the underfeeding of the cat by the pool, though that's such a trifle — the vacation ultimately succeeded and I brought back a bunch of photos with turtles from the only excursion, but the funniest part is something else, when I was paying for two coffees in the lobby, they gave me change in egyptian banknotes and this twisted trick made me laugh.. still left to pick the opinion of the tour agent himself about how rooms with a pool view should always be taken, here he didnt lie

Went to Hurghada in January, and you know — the manager sent me everything so fast that I even double-checked it wasn’t a prank. The hotel came with a nice bonus: the animators really lit up the party by the pool, I haven’t laughed like that in a hundred years. Corals right by the beach, but better to buy reef shoes right away, I felt sorry for my sneakers after. I only remembered the frost in Astana on the way back, but now I already want to go back to those fish and the warm sea. Yeah, the flight was fine, all smooth, just as agreed, minus one star only because the departure was delayed by an hour, but that’s probably the weather))))

Had a vacation in Sharm in october the company of four stars turned out to be so-so, but the sea overshadowed all the downsides. the queue at the recepshun in the hotel was just crazy, stood about forty five minutes with my suitcase, but the view from the window right away fifth floor and onto the pool. the guide on the bus was blabbing something about corals and all I remembered was about the sea urchins that crawl out at night. went snorkeling three days in a row and one time even hurt my knee on a rock, now a scar as a memory. in the evening we walked along the promenade there's a strong wind blowing and they sell some date sweets and also henna tattoos I didn't dare. almost no complaints except maybe about the food but I definitely didn't go hungry

there was a need to just quickly celebrate a birthday. took a package to El Gouna because we wanted not to party, but just to lie around. and here's what I'll say — rarely do you get this lucky with weather. the reef was visible right from the room, I didn't even expect the water to be that color — turquoise and calm, put on fins once and that's it, swam along the shore, no snorkeling needed food was fine, no food poisoning, even though I had both fish and meat in one day. animation didn't annoy, which is strange for me, usually it irritates)) dive center right by the beach, took one trip to the reef for baksheesh — that was the best part. came back happy as a clam, though usually after trips something's always off, here it was total relax without a brain. already want to go back, but that's later
