Im going on friday morning for 11 nights and was just wondering what other people think of the place and what they did while they were out there?
How much stuff costs out there would be good to know as well

I went to Sharks Bay and spent most of the time snorkeling.
Got a flight to the Pyramids which was tiring but well worth it, imo.
That's about it.

I think its Marsa Alam... The Three Corners Fayrouz Plaza. I didn't do any of the booking, much easier if someone else does it and you just go along with everything

Not bad then really! The hotels all inclusive but i'd imagine i'll be buying food from other places, and i'll be out doing some sort of activities probably

You will find that stuff in the hotel is like 8-9-10 times the amount it is outside (for most things anyway)

Did a cruise from Cyprus to Egypt, have to have an armed tour if going through Giza sort of way lol. Pyramids are definitely a disappointment.

I enjoyed the Pyramids, except for the annoying locals who hassle the fuck out of you unless you say "no, thank you" in Arabic.
I personally think they are a must see.
Next time I go I'll check out Luxor.
