Whether to go on an excursion to Israel.
I really want to go to Israel. The husband dissuades-dangerous transport, the border, restless in Israel. Who has been lately? How did everything go? Is it hard for a day on the bus? How did you go through customs with Israel?

A very good excursion. Take a blanket from the hotel on the bus, you may have to wait a long time to cross the border.
And in Israel everything is organized clearly, safely and comfortably.

We went at the beginning of January last year, just when there was a very serious situation in Israel. A lot of military and checkpoints in Jerusalem reminded of the military conflict, otherwise everything is quiet and calm. The tour is amazing, be sure to go!

We were in Israel last March, but from Taba. The tour was wonderful, not dangerous, we didn’t stand at the border for long. But! Pretty tiring, and it's from Taba, which is right on the border, and you have to drive from Sharm to Taba for almost 200 km, if you don't mind the tediousness, then, of course, go.

Read my review http://www.turpravda.com/eg/sharm_el_sheyh/Amwaj_Oyoun__ex__Millennium_Oyoun_-h18662-r24682.html
I am making a website for a local Egyptian travel agency and often communicate with tourists, there have been no complaints or problems with this tour lately. I was in the spring, everything is super!!!
I crossed the border in 40 minutes. though on the bus for 1 hour they waited for others who climbed the dutik.

We went from Ibrahim. This is the Ukrainian-Egyptian office. There is a site. They offered to take it cheaper than Abdullah (Said, it seems, is the same). That's what they bribed. The trip cost $100.
All these offices provide you with a transfer to the border. Everything else is done by the host.
Ibrahim and his comrades, as I understand it, did not know where our hotel was. They sent a taxi for us. On it, we drove to some gateway, where we paid $ 200, received migration cards and 5 pounds to buy stamps that need to be pasted on them (the stamps were bought from guards letting tourists through to the border). We did not have any accompanying guide. They crossed the border on their own. Thank God we were met there. No one told us who would meet us and take us back. Therefore, when we crossed the border in the opposite direction and all our Israeli fellow travelers got into buses, we only had to call Ibrahim.
It took about an hour to find a minibus (Ibrahim and his comrades forgot that we did not get to the border on it and, in principle, we have no idea how it looks). Somewhere else an hour was spent gathering the rest of the group. Everyone except us was from Sharm. As feared, we were driven past our hotel and taken away

About the tour itself. It also seemed strange and crumpled. In addition to the Russian-Ukrainians, there were also Italians on the bus. We have been waiting for someone for a very long time. In my opinion, just the group of Ibrahim. Therefore, it seemed to me that Jerusalem turned out to be shortened. In any case, we have not been to the Gethsemane Gardens. Everything happened on the run. There was practically no time for photography. The emphasis was on temples. We were literally hammered that we were pilgrims, not tourists. The city itself passed by. This is not quite what I wanted. The Dead Sea was visited on the way back.
Much more was expected from the tour itself. Even more so from the service.
Fatigue in the bud killed the desire to go somewhere else this time, especially from this office. But, on the other side of the scale, the savings is $ 180. So I don't know if it was worth it.
p.s. In Egypt, I didn’t go anywhere, but only through Taz-Tour. Completely different experience.

By the way, we were also not brought to the temple mount with an observation platform. The impression was that we really went for $ 100, and not for 180, for 100 and saw. Thanks to Saif Tours and Ibrahim in particular!))) I promised to recommend, I recommend. ))))

Once again, I'm sorry that this happened with the transfer, this is rare, but it happens that only the one who does nothing is not mistaken. I hope you will not keep evil on us all your life :-). One thing is sad that you are drawing conclusions on one out of the ordinary case. I understand it happened to you, your shirt is closer to your body. But why draw global conclusions from one excursion about our work, even insulting. Here is an example of tourists who went on a couple of excursions and they all liked Jerusalem. http://blogs.turpravda.com/kukolnik/22216.html

Well, except for the puncture with the transfer, everything else is standard, everyone goes quickly, because there is not enough time, tour operators have the same pace. You seem to have visited everything, in addition, in reality, when you walk around the city, the guide talks about something all the time, in addition, in Jerusalem you should have seen Golgotha, the stone of anointing, a number of churches through which you passed and pass the final part of the way of the cross. Another thing is not everyone is interested. The Wailing Wall is just a wall, it just has an interesting history. And you can go into the room where the Jews pray. You visited Bethlehem, they also tell interesting things clearly on Christian topics, which, as I understand it, you were simply not interested in.
From your story, I see only a puncture with a transfer, the rest is your subjective opinion, do not visit more excursions with religious themes and everything will be fine.
If you want to tell the whole world that you did not like the tour to Jerusalem from our company, write it on our website, we do not wipe such reviews. You know the site, please write whatever you want. Everything will be on your conscience on this I am closing the topic with you. Good luck to you, especially with transfers.

E brother, dear And2733, it was in August, then it was not the season yet, so buses are collected from different companies, that's where the delay comes from. The guys can no longer confirm your trip, it was a long time ago, no one keeps the lists, but apparently wrote by mail in August. Why didn’t he complain to me right away, usually we immediately make a gift to smooth over the guilt. I wrote on the site for what, that all complaints should be written to me.
Then everything is clear to me, by the way, I often warn people that in the off season there are multilingual groups on the same bus. Too bad you didn't skype me. Sorry, it's hard to guarantee quality for $100 in the off season. no one will be lucky on the floor of the bus, by the way, and the operators put their own in the summer, when the buses are not recruited or they put them on. Well, I understand it's not easy for you. Now everything is much better, the season the buses are full and usually do not mix. From May to August, the summer lull in the rest of the time there is a large flow of tourists to Jerusalem.

Of course go!
Our friends have been there this year and have gone before.
We took a tour from a private trader near Alf Leila wa Leila, you can still in Naama Bay, and other vacationers from our hotel took from a guide - more expensive - ended up in the same bus, with one guide. But you need to sign up on the first day of rest, since the trip once or twice a week and waiting for permission to enter takes about three days.
They returned at 22.30 - so joyful, overflowing with positive emotions, and spiritually - that it was pleasant to look at them. They said they would go next year.

But they didn’t let us in, the visa for Ukraine was closed for Easter, - they say so many pilgrims. Our friends from Russia - they have free entry to Israel and Jordan.
You will be informed what to take with you, or you can look at the tour website, but it is better to take it on the spot.

And, Hills is considered 3+, and Viva 3, although young people prefer to stay in Viva, it is not clear why, no one knows Russian there.

And2733 you are a deceiver Andrey, you were identified as a friend of Abdulla and did not travel with us, just as my people said that we had never traveled with Italians. And so that people were also brought to Nuweiba, they swear - IT WAS NOT. Yes, you wrote to us, only to find out our prices and tell them to Abdul. How I felt, because I remember you advertised Abdullah here. I just apologized to you. How the light wears such scoundrels. I already doubted my trust in people in my friend Ibrahim, and then several people recognized you, you and Abdullah hung out in Hurghada more than once and your reviews on the net are about Abdullah with photos, I remembered when Ibrahim, Said and Abdullah were still working together , you sent your photos to my site, then I have bad associations about you. Do not lie anymore, moderators, please delete this correspondence, everything that he wrote is a lie. DELETE THIS BRASS LIE OF ABDULLAH'S accomplice HUGE REQUEST! And send a warning!
And you, Andrey, will write a lie again, we will sue you and you will no longer go to Egypt, we have connections in Egypt to blacklist you. And in Russia we will attract for slander, there are many witnesses, and Russians too, who will confirm your connection with Abdullah, and here you deny it, enough

Not a fact, as a rule, nothing like this happens. Personally, after Israel, I drove a passenger car from Sharma to Hurghada via Suez, Cairo checked my passport around, there were no problems. The main thing at the airport is to buy a normal visa for 15 USD. not a Sinai stamp upon entry.
And not only Irina has descriptions on the site, we have more information on the site and even an example of visas in the passport is shown.
I'm being bombarded with ads here, and I don't hide the fact that I'm making a website for an Egyptian company, for which I was a client for two years at first. But at least I don't openly write the coordinates. Yes, and I actually answer the questions, but here is pure advertising from nadin65.

I have nothing to do with Irina!
I never used her services, took excursions only on the spot in Egypt.
I use these sites only for educational purposes, brief descriptions of excursions and that's it.
Do I have a right to this? And I think that these sites are intended for this, and yours too - but where to buy is another question.
I advised just to read, but not to buy, many are poorly oriented on sites on the Internet.
You get mad at everyone who doesn't reach out to you, so you won't get more applications.
Everyone decides for himself.

konyks, you don’t need to involve me in your showdown with competitors. I am a tourist and I write reviews, describe my impressions, that is, exactly what this site was created for. The fact that you did not like my review is not to blame for your competitors, but for the level of service of your company. I am neither here nor anywhere else advertising either Abdullah, or Said, or anyone else, unlike you, you are engaged in advertising here, and MODERATORS SHOULD THINK ABOUT THIS. I simply do not know these people and did not use their services. At least you read carefully what I write, until August I bought excursions only from a tour operator. I found out about your existence, as well as about the existence of your competitors, and about the existence of your site only before my trip to Taba. What kind of photos sent to you can we talk about at all?))) Instead of ridiculous lies and threats against me, get down to work!

Konyks, I traveled from your company for one day to Israel from 27 to 28.08.09. The trip was on behalf of the firm WINUS. You didn’t carry the Italians, they were on the bus in Israel (for a travel agency employee, you are not only deceitful, but also not attentive, I wrote about this). There was one English-speaking couple on your bus, the rest were Russian-speaking. Everyone except us was from Sharm. One couple, mother and son, complained to your guide about the fact that they were given some wrong stamps at the border (I don’t know if it’s right to blame the guide for this).
In fact, for lies and threats, you should be involved. But that “advertising” that you made for yourself with this correspondence is enough for you. It seems to me that many will think about whether it is worth contacting you in order to receive similar letters in addition to poor-quality service. Good luck.))))

To nadin65. And who told you that I'm angry. I’m just talking out loud, Irina, unlike Abdullah, is a normal girl and I once wrote to her myself, although I didn’t go to Sharm then, but to Hurghada, so I met Ibrahim, and maybe she would do the site now. I only have a dislike for Abdullah, but there is something to believe in, and we are friends with everyone else. And Irina is also a fellow countrywoman from Khmelnitsky, so you attack me in vain.
It’s just that when I wrote the coordinates on the site, they delete them and scold me, and when others, then everything is ok. But this is for the moderators, not for you.

To And2733, they write me something completely different from the office. Andrei, I don’t want to deal with this anymore, if you really traveled, you should have written right away, then you could find out everything. In addition, your photo, maybe the truth for the Arabs, we are all on the same face, as they are to us, but two said that you were with Abdullah. By the way, I also vaguely remember your photo (or very similar to you) with Abdullah.
As you can see, at first I did not deny that anything can happen, besides, in the off season. I don’t even know what is the point of deceiving the Arabs. Let's just forget it all, I'm already tired. If you suddenly went exactly, forgive me, if not, I forgive you too. And let's put an end to this. And please, kind people, if you have problems while traveling through my partners, send me an SMS or write to soap on Skype. We will decide everything, but we don’t need to throw at us something that is already difficult to prove or disprove in half a year. Moreover, Abdullah is waging war.
And your criticism, Andrei, coincided with a text message from Abdullah where he promised to arrange for me ...

I read it and made sure again - it's better to go with a tour operator (Teztour, Turtes, Pegasus or another that accompanies you). The season is not the season, if you are Russian, then go bush with the Russians. Were with a tour in Jerusalem for 1 day - and the site and shops and the city - in short, all the seven wonders of the world))
And I don’t understand those who travel with it’s not clear who - but tell me, my dear, how is insurance for such trips issued and how does it compare with your insurance from the Rhone of the country ????
You can also go from Sharm - we collected tourists for 40 minutes at hotels, took a pillow with it and crossed the border, more massage buses in Israel are not soft grayings. Three hours from Sharm is better than a frontier town with no infrastructure.
it was safe in Israel itself - there were a lot of police and military, but the main thing is not to bully them and not to lead sharply, and everything will be a bunch.
