In my opinion, in Egypt at this time it is hotter than in Tunisia. In Tunisia, the Mediterranean Sea, it is warm, but without such a rich wildlife as in the Red. There you can go on excursions to Carthage, the capital of Tunisia, various boat trips, a folklore evening, etc. I must say right away that the one who advertised Carthage and photographed it for advertising brochures - 5 points, because. there is really nothing to catch there, and you can also take a picture of it only from 2 angles, so that nothing but the ruins falls off in the photo. In the capital, you can see and walk around the Medina - the old part of the city, which is a huge, noisy Arab bazaar. Landscapes - olive trees. But if you are a fan of hotel rest, then I advise you to simply choose a good hotel and relax.
In Egypt, of course - the Red Sea is a fairy tale, it's worth seeing. You can go to Luxor (if you fly to Hurghada) or to the pyramids (it's much further).
If from Shram, then there you can visit the Mount of Moses. I was in Egypt in February - I liked it very much, my friends were in July - they said that it was very difficult, you remember the trip only from photographs, because very hot.

And in terms of service and hotels, where is better? I've been waiting for this trip for so long, I'm afraid to fly with the hotel!

Hotels are the same everywhere. Both there and there are both 4 * and 5 *. Excursions are different and there are many of them, but still I advise you to go to Egypt to Sharm El Sheikh, the Red Sea and indeed a fairy tale, fantastic diving, which cannot be said about the Mediterranean Sea. Underwater photos on a digital camera are simply superb. Go, you won't regret it.

Agree with Muskat! I advise you to go to Egypt in Sharm and choose a 5 * or 4 * + hotel. In Egypt, it is much more interesting, the sea is definitely more beautiful and there are more excursions! On account of the heat, in Egypt the off-season is May-July, the peak is in June, so feel free to go. Just choose a good hotel on the first line!

My girlfriend was in Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey,.....
So, when I asked her where she liked the most, Egypt said.
Those. this does not mean that now it is not necessary to travel to other countries. It is interesting to see a lot, and then compare.
I was in Hurghada for the first time, and then in Sharm several times, so I don’t want to go to Hurghada anymore, and I’m very glad that I got to Hurghada on my first trip to Egypt - because I saw Luxor - it’s super ...
Maybe you do the same - there is the possibility of a free trip to Tunisia, because then after Egypt you will not want to go to another place. Or maybe you want ..... it depends on everyone personally, some go to the same city and the same hotel!!!! several times, and vice versa.
This is not advice, just food for thought...

Each country is interesting in its own way. Everywhere there are pros and cons, both in terms of service and food. It all depends on taste. But for starters, I advise you to go to Egypt. Indeed, you will not see such diversity and beauty as in the Red Sea in the Mediterranean. Even if you don’t swim well, you still want to go into the water to see this amazing world. To do this, you need to go to Sharm, and if you are interested in excursions, then to Hurghada. About excursions: in the summer it’s hot in both Egypt and Tunisia, so all excursions tiring, but easier to bear in the cooler season. Choose a hotel on the first line, with a large territory, with a good reef, cuisine and animation.

Well, how did it get easier?
You need to be there and there. Therefore, go where the season is better or a more expensive tour will be paid.
It’s no longer worth going to Tunisia from the end of September. It’s hot in Egypt now.
The advantages of Egypt are the sea (one of the best seas in the world), hotels (from triplets to luxury hotels of world chains), food (a moot point, but on average it is better in Egypt), service (the same as food), a fairly active life, Luxor, Cairo
Tunisia - beaches, excursion to the Sahara, the best thalassotherapy in the world

I also think you should be on time. If September - Tunisia, If October-early November - Egypt. I've been everywhere. In Tunisia - the place of Port el Kantaoui - this is in Sousse, in Egypt - Sharm. Holidays are different, the seas are different, you don’t need to compare them, it’s good everywhere. The choice for you is the indicated best time for the weather and the best hotel.

Since you are traveling for free, it is better to choose Tunisia, because. it is more expensive, and then you can go to Egypt at your own expense;)
But be aware:
Tunisia"our " tourists are accustomed compared to Egypt recently...it is difficult without French, or at least without English.
if you go in August, then it’s hot in Egypt, in September it’s already cool in Tunisia, especially the sea IMHO
service in hotels is about the same, but outside the hotel it is more comfortable in Egypt, in Tunisia alone outside the hotel is scary
and most importantly, in Egypt there is a RED SEA!!!
but in Tunisia it is more exotic)
аватар Logoks
Personally, I liked the service more in Egypt, where they simply pray for tourists. In Tunisia, the staff was rude. But that's how you get there.
аватар slawko
You are comparing two completely different pages, depending on what you are looking for in this holiday, these are different seas, different historical places, and indeed, the same as comparing Turkey and Egypt.
honestly, I like Egypt more, but there are no comrades for the taste and color.
аватар den_sonya
Better, as for me, Egypt and still go on an excursion to Giza.
аватар Liiz
Definitely Egypt! To start. And then travel wherever your heart desires. I join everyone who said here that the Red Sea is the best! I wish you a great holiday!!
аватар Lavazza83
Thank you very much for your advice, I also read a lot of reviews about Tunisia - people complain a lot about the service and that the Egyptian (Turkish) 4 and 5 are much better than the same, but in Tunisia. Maybe I'll go to Egypt!
аватар Azizam
I do not know what to say. I have been to Tunisia several times (I have traveled all over the country by car) and I have been to Egypt many times. Egypt is certainly good because of the Red Sea. that's why I go there endlessly ... But Tunisia ... also left an indelible impression: Medina in the capital, Carthage, blue and white Sidi BouSaid (just a fabulous town), a trip to the Sahara with its colliseum, Matmata, Douz, Tozr , the Sot El Dzherid salt marsh, oases, lunar landscapes of the Atlas Mountains ... I think it’s worth visiting Tunisia at least once. And you can go to Egypt at any time and at your own expense...
