For those who want peace and relaxation - this is it. If you also turn off your mobile phone... I was struck by the silence. On this planet - where you are quiet, remember? And it's very quiet there. There is no one and nothing. No one pulls on the sleeve for a massage, does not call, the dollar for it is not clear that it does not require. Here you understand that the lack of animation is also a huge plus! There are no pissed off Russian chauvinists on the system *all inclusive - where is my shmurdyak*? The Germans have nothing to be afraid of on May 1 and 9. The hotel's private beach is a big plus. Protected, fenced off. Private. For clients only. And that's it. There are no passing people there. Therefore, the girls made it the only NUDIST beach in Egypt. It was nice. Then we met these girls and became friends. We rented a car from a Russian-speaking Nubian guide. Since I understand and speak Arabic a little, I was able to bargain for renting a car for 1 day. 100 + 20 for petrol and power of attorney. Nubian number +20109690392, responds to any Russian name, best of all - Friend, or Saddyki! He sells excursions and rents out cars, you can use a carrier, you can do it yourself. Lives in Taba. They were visiting him. They drank real Arabic coffee. A very friendly Nubian with very bad teeth. BUT! He speaks Russian almost the same as you and me.
Regarding Nadia, I recalled two situations: 1) the guard did not allow 6 bottles of water to be brought in (in reserve), grabbed by the hands, etc. I made Nadia make him apologize to me and the girls with a promise not to repeat it again. 2) a beer that looks like camel urine, Heineken pours there under a local brand, cost 4 bucks for a 0.33 tin at the hotel. I bargained with Nadia - they say, I'll take 10 cans at once, but 3 bucks each! She says no - you buy 8 cans for 4 bucks, and I'll give you two more just like that. I figured out her arithmetic - she still bargained for herself as much as 2 bucks and said that she agreed. But these two bucks are a plus for her! : ) Respect yurself.
Let's summarize: it's worth going there if you don't drink, don't walk, you want silence - to think, meditate, etc. My next trip is only there : ) And you can squeeze in the Hilton. By the way, with Nadia, an excursion to Ihzaril can be brought down from 220 bucks, to 180, and then up to 150 for quite a few who respect their culture and maybe a few words in Arabic. Learn languages, well, at least a little! : ) We go to visit them, not they visit us.
