In any case, I recommend at the moment not to go on long-distance excursions (Cairo, Luxor, etc.). This will not go anywhere if everything settles down in Egypt, and there is a risk (unfortunately).

Go to Jerusalem for at least two days, there is nothing to do there for one. But as far as I remember, you can only fly from Hurghada to Jerusalem by plane!

Now it’s not scary in Cairo, my friends went to Egypt for the New Year, I advised them to go from Marwan Tours, they called, everything turned out well! Stayed alive and well!

Do not take a safari, otherwise you will eat so much sand in half an hour ...... A good excursion on a boat with a transparent bottom or sailing on a yacht. It is better to take from local agencies, and you can bargain and speak Russian normally. Another very interesting excursion to a mountain 2000 meters above sea level, where you meet the dawn above the clouds, and on the way back you go to the monastery. Only one thing, after visiting this mountain, you need to keep all the commandments. (Endurance excursion). It's really cold now to go on this excursion. There is nothing to do in Luxor - the poor.

I completely agree with jabetta, at present it is better to stay in a hotel and not look for adventures in a soft spot ...

to go for that kind of money and sit in a hotel? Maybe stay at home? By the way, a year ago, they also showed us a lot of things about sharks, and my friends at the same time were resting in Naama Bay. And watching Channel 1, they were horrified by what we were showing. And in general, is the devil as terrible as he is prayed for? I myself went with my husband to Naama Bay in Sharm al-Sheikh in 2006. when all our channels were ringing about terrorist attacks. There was something I didn't see or hear. In general, the end of the world in 2012 is promised. Can you immediately lie down in a red kayak?

Iriska1975, dear countrywoman! What kind of money are you talking about? Even from our EKB, as I like to say, "where planes are filled with liquid gold", now the prices are more than affordable! And if people go on vacation, then everyone determines the "threshold of danger" for himself. I do not consider myself to be a "mattress", but now the "best" excursions should still be postponed. Simply advising to rush into the Egyptian excursion in this situation is still not worth it. As well as "immediately lie down in a red kayak." Truth is the "golden" mean.

And I don’t offer Cairo, a safe excursion on the Red Sea, there is also an excursion that paradise islands (sea), blue sky, white sand, lagoons, clear water - romance is solid and no extreme.

All the same, excursions from Hurghada, probably. Therefore, all types of sea excursions are a paradise island, El Gouna (Egyptian Venice), there are lovers on safari and to the Bedouins, a submarine and a yacht with a transparent bottom (see fish if you don’t swim with a mask) , in extreme cases - Luxor, I think that they go there with security, see antiquities. Mountains, monasteries, Jerusalem are from Sharm, from Hurghada it is expensive and long, but the tour is short !!!

But I insist that long-distance excursions (Cairo, Luxor, etc.) should be postponed! As the saying goes, "God protects the safe" (although, of course, it's up to each individual). Here, take care of yourself!
It is quite possible to get by in a week with "local" or sea excursions. There are so many of them that there is not enough time for everything.
Good luck everyone and Merry Christmas!

And the glass bottom boat tour sucks! It's better to look at bright pictures on the Internet! 2 hours of time - down the drain! All corals are in some gray-bluish tones, rather unclear. We rented a yacht for 8 people - 4 of ours and 4 Germans. Judging by the German mood, they were not very good either ... One German woman and I admired the Red Sea on the upper deck for almost the entire excursion, and not the underwater world, with the exclamation "beautiful". Swimming in the open sea, the remains of a sunken plane - that's all the impressions of the tour... Sad...

"And the glass bottom boat tour sucks!"
I totally agree! But, it is impossible not to take into account that there is a category of people who cannot get into the sea themselves, for them this is the only opportunity to look there. For everyone else, it's better on a yacht and into the water! Although for us, in general, the best option is a taxi and into the bay (no one commands or points you)! But, I am aware that this is not acceptable to everyone.

In order to give advice on which excursions it is worth going from Hurghada, which are better and cheaper, you need to write what composition you have (do you have children, elderly people) and for how many days you are coming.
In general terms - if you are interested in history and are not afraid of a 4.5-hour one-way road, then Luxor.
From sea walks - el gouna, a paradise island, a walk in the east.
To view the underwater world - aquascopes, but not a boat with a transparent bottom, although it is many times cheaper ..)).
Quad safari is just great, but be prepared for the clothes to be washed after the safari!
аватар slon.2013
I liked the quad bike safari and Paradise Island. Safari is generally difficult to describe in words, you have to try it. And "Paradise Island" is a boat trip to an island with very clear water, perfect fine sand and convenient entry into the sea, and after the island they take you to a coral reef, give you a mask, fins and there wow , fish of all colors and stripes, very beautiful.
I attribute a considerable part of the pleasure I received first of all to the good organization and of course to the guide, with whom we were incredibly lucky. A very pleasant, well-mannered person, speaks Russian well. Suddenly, someone will come in handy, I leave the phone, after all, a proven option and two times cheaper than the guide at the hotel. +20189453971, name is Marat

add to this
just wasted money
аватар slon.2013
An excursion on a boat with a transparent bottom is probably for those who have children or who are afraid to dive with a mask. In fact, I myself did not know how to dive very well when I went to a paradise island, but everything turned out to be not so difficult, and, of course, there are a lot of pleasures from this.
