EgyptTaba
Hello everyone, what is the current situation in the resorts of Egypt (in particular, Taba) in connection with the concerns in Cairo? We have a tour on October 18, is it worth it to go?

What do you want to be written? That it’s not calm in Taba, there’s nothing like that, in Cairo, yes, another one again ...., but in Sharm, Taba, Hurghada, everything is calm at the moment, only last night I returned from Hurghada back to Sharm :)

I would like you to write me the answer to my question. I think it's obvious. Thank you for the information.

eXhaustic, P.S It is up to you and only you to go or not to go, because there are already discussions on this topic on the forum here, read the reviews of those who have just returned from there.

And really - why bother.
just read the latest reviews, over 20 reviews about Egypt have been written in the last 4 days - and not one of them is about instability in the resorts! Do not go to Cairo, but enjoy the sea!

nadin65, thanks for the link, but I have already read everything
today's reviews are interesting (because the tragic events in cairo happened today), but something is suspiciously missing

News today from Turprom - "" There is a curfew in Cairo, but everything is calm in Hurghada
10.10.2011, (14:41)
The center of Cairo once again became the site of battles of "local" significance. This time, young representatives of the country's Coptic minority took to the streets, but the peaceful demonstration eventually escalated, according to the old revolutionary tradition, into a confrontation with the local police. The reason that brought the discontented Copts to the street was the ban on the construction of the church, imposed by the governor of Aswan. As a result of the clashes, according to various sources, about 24 people were killed, and more than 210 protesters were injured. However, there were no disturbances in the resorts of Egypt, and the resort life continues without excesses. ""...

eXhaustic Who needs you there??? You're not in Cairo! Relax to your heart's content! I got to Hurghada at the end of January - the beginning of February just at the peak! and the second trip was from September 22 to October 3! Quiet and peaceful!

They don't care about tourists. We rested in the spring, when there was a mess, You can buy everything for nothing, Rest on your health, take a ride to Israel. It's worth it

And what was the situation in your city in connection with the pogroms in Kyiv? ))))))))
or (if you are from Kiev) in your area due to the riots on the Maidan??? )))))))))))
I'm not nitpicking, I'm drawing parallels
I think it will be easier for you to understand that everything is calm in Taba :)

It’s not even hard to guess who in this thread is minus the people and everyone :), you don’t like that everything is calm in Taba, so the flag is in your hands and preferably orange and a banana in your hand instead of a microphone !!!

Thanks everyone for the info!
P.S. Irina, and who is minus? (I'm off topic)
аватар Allsharm.com
eXhaustic, that one is here (we will not give out names and appearances) You collect chumadans and put more positive there, and upon returning from Taba, please write to us in this thread !!!! Have a nice rest.

I agree with Irina completely! Yesterday I returned from Taba (I traveled to Israel with tourists) everything is calm on the way, the only thing is that they put up additional police controls !!!

How much does a trip to Israel cost? How often do groups go there?
Don't pay more than 80 bucks, or even less ...
аватар Allsharm.com
vic_grin, '' Don't pay more than 80 bucks, or even less ... '' - why 80, write already 50, did you go for 50? or for free? :)
аватар vic_grin
We, Ukrainians, traveled in April 2010. for 80 dollars, and the Russians for 75. They already had a visa-free regime with Israel, but not with Ukraine. And now Ukrainians do not need visas either. So the price should go down. And those who paid 180 each were traveling with us then in the same bus. Very angry...
аватар lidia_-
decent difference

Do not buy excursions from hotel guides and do not be afraid of their intimidation. We took vouchers at the tour desk opposite the Luna Sharm hotel ...
аватар Karina-Mango
This topic has been discussed here many times! But I want to say one thing, that you need to save, but save within reasonable limits, in fact, there are different prices from $ 70 and above, but do not forget that the cost of the trip should include the cost of fees at the Egyptian border - $ 15 and the Israeli border - $ 30 dollars, i.e. 45 dollars is only the cost of collecting and duties at the border. Add the cost of a buffet lunch, let's say, $15, well, and another bus in Egypt - 500 km, in Israel - 600 km, well, plus a guide !!! In Egypt, gasoline is cheap about $1 for 3 liters, and in Israel, 1 liter is about $2.5. So consider how much such an excursion can cost minimally if there are about 45 people on the bus !!!!
аватар Karina-Mango
It is clear that hotel guides are overpriced, but at a very low price, you can also judge some kind of catch .... Just figure out what the nominal cost for such a trip, given what I wrote above ...
аватар vic_grin
So those who fell for the horror stories of the hotel guides paid for those who did not, and the guide received a substantial profit. Why do tourists pay different prices at the same time in the same hotel? Sometimes the difference reaches 50% or more. One paid $1,000 for the tour, and the other $1,500 from the same city under the same conditions. We had an excursion to Jerusalem at a normal level for 80 dollars. as for those who went for 180 ..

and where in Taba you can buy a trip to Israel cheaper and in terms of safety not inferior to those sold by guides? I heard that in Taba there is no infrastructure as such. Is it true?
аватар nadin65

Fleur7, you are right there is no infrastructure there. Find a suitable company in advance on the Internet, and upon arrival in Taba, make a reservation by phone.
