1. almost one option - Pegasus
2. quite hard... and a bit scary for some... the uphill road is quite steep and next to a cliff
3. massage is paid ... there is right on the beach near the villas

I do not recommend going from locals.
If from officials, then it’s better from Teztur, even if you came to Egypt from Pegasus. At Teza, by the way, many excursions are cheaper than Pegasus ones. Simply at the hotel you negotiate with a Teza representative.

The question of who to buy excursions from has already become rhetorical. Most importantly, do not rush to buy from Pegasus or from other officials. Talk to tourists, find out who went with whom, then make a decision after weighing all the factors. We bought excursions to Jerusalem and Petra from the "street" agency (for the first time, before that only from the officials), we were very satisfied with both the price and the quality. We send our parents to Movenpick at the end of April, we will buy an excursion to Jerusalem from the same agency.

S.Tatyana, I have already read so much that I was completely confused! who did you buy from? Ibrahim?
аватар Lica1959
Pegasus is arrogant and unceremonious, they just extort money from tourists. We returned on March 5. We went to Jerusalem-Jordan for two days, through Tatyana, everything is just fine !!! I highly recommend this particular tour. In addition to us, at different times, 23 people went on one-day and two-day trips, not a single comment. I am a very picky tourist, I have been to Egypt more than 12 times, but there was nothing to complain about.

No, we bought from Abdulla, but not from the one who works with Tatyana. You see, there are many "street" agencies and they are different, it's as lucky as we were. We were lucky, we had our own big Mercedes, and half empty. At the Israeli border, we were met by a Russian girl Svetlana (travel agency S. Voyage). We crossed the border in 10 minutes, the guides were of a high level, the excursions were well built (we passed all the most revered places early in the morning, without queues, we arrived at the Dead Sea in the afternoon, and not at dawn or at sunset, as Pegasus often does.) By the way, be sure to specify the program of excursions, it is different, choose what you need. Pegasus does not take you to Bethlehem on a one-day excursion to Jerusalem, that is, you will not see the Church of the Nativity. Bethlehem, but they didn’t take me to Gethsemane. For me, this circumstance was one of the decisive ones when choosing with whom to go.
Once again, I advise you not to rush, decide everything on the spot, just take the phones of alternative agencies with a good reputation with you. Do not think that there is only one Ibrahim or Abdullah. These names are quite common among the Arabs, different people can hide behind one name.

1) redsea.kiev.ua. I ordered tours from them, everything went well.
3) Spa treatments are not recommended, very low level. Before going for a massage. Have a tour of the spa. (sauna is terrible, impose a mask is unclear which no one can explain what is included there. The mask was taken to the toilet. lying down (this is the first time I encountered. Prices are not cheap).

Rested in Movenpick. I went through Ibragim, his website redsea.kiev.ua. There were no complaints about the organization of excursions. In winter, they paid $ 90 per person, now it can be more expensive. Tours must be booked in advance. In Taba, they will contact you. And, in general, it's your own business from whom to buy excursions, only in the bus everyone sits together - both those who paid $ 100 and those who paid $ 220.
The prices for SPA treatments are high, and the quality is very poor. I do not recommend it.

I don’t know what Pegasus has, but at the Tez-tour through Israeli territory, only those from the Tez-tour ride on the bus. Since Tez himself is the host on Israeli territory :) And he is not an idiot to carry other people's tourists, who most importantly paid another uncle :)
Therefore, I don’t know where the bike came from, about the fact that in Israel everyone is together, if only Pegasus has such garbage ... although I saw Pegasus buses in Israel, also painted in full size, like Tez-Turov ones, I doubt that they are such idiots . Because even an idiot becomes amazingly intelligent when it comes to money :)
Before the trip, we ourselves fell for this trick - that in Israel everyone is on the bus together, both from the officials and from the locals. We wanted to go from the locals, but during our vacation, two pairs of compatriots from our hotel ended up with the locals (with different ones), that we didn't take the risk.
So I advise the author, when choosing with whom to go on an excursion, to be guided by anything, but not this dubious information that as a result everyone will end up on the same bus.
аватар S.Tatyana
I also can’t believe that different operators put tourists on the same bus. In any case, we didn’t have strangers on the bus, although the bus was half empty. they even dropped him off, he sat down with us because no one came for him (by the way, there are different street agencies).
аватар AndreyZZZ
S. Tatyana, how did you pass the border? There were no problems? After all, as far as I know, local operators do not have an accompanying person when crossing the border. We had two ladies who found fault with no matter what, ordinary women, started with the question of what was your grandfather's name, and ended up with the fact that _we have the right to refuse an Israeli visa without explanation_. But we had an accompanying girl from Teza, she talked to the Israeli border guards for forty minutes, called somewhere, as a result the women were let through.
аватар S.Tatyana
We crossed the border without even noticing. They didn’t pester us, but I pestered the girls from customs with questions about stamps in passports after crossing the border on our own upon returning from Israel to Egypt. The fact is that we wanted to take a walk around Eilat, more before the excursion to Jerusalem, and Pegasus forbade us to do this, scaring us that they would put the wrong stamp on us and would not let us go home to Russia from Taba. In general, I heard a lot of different things about Israeli customs, but it made a good impression on me, in Anyway, they checked us after Jordan carefully.
аватар zaraza1287
S.Tatyana, so you went to Eilat yourself? Tell me where they went and whether everything went well at the border!
аватар S.Tatyana
No, we didn’t go to Eilat on our own. After a trip to Israel-Jordan, we no longer had the strength, time, or desire. But there was a married couple who went to Eilat shops on their own, there were no problems with the border, but I don't know if there were problems later with leaving the country.
аватар Andy_NN
S.Tatyana i.e. I understand that you went on a combined tour of Jerusalem-Petra for 2 days? What guided you (against 2 one-day excursions)? Here are also thoughts, than 2 times to gather, you can immediately go for a 2-day trip ...
аватар S.Tatyana
Why cross the Israeli border 2 times?
аватар Lica1959
You won’t regret going to a two-day trip. In one-day trips, everyone is very tired and the impressions are not the same. And at a cost, too, it comes out.

zaraza1287 I wouldn’t risk myself as a child and order an excursion from the officials ... A year ago, we rested in Sharm, went on a one-day excursion to Jerusalem, we were so impressed that this year we want to go again only for a two-day excursion with a child ... By the way, we went with Pegasus, everything was very good, and the accompanying girl Irina and the guide from the Israeli side. They didn’t put anyone left on us, the bus was very good. pays twice!
аватар Lica1959
If you're willing to pay, no problem. Only those registered in Sharm are also officials, and they insure tourists in the same way.
аватар S.Tatyana
Kcunia, I apologize right away if I’m wrong, but, you are painfully similar to the “mishandled Cossack” from Pegasus. I don’t want to repeat myself, but everyone is at risk, including those from Pegasus. Read carefully what Pegasus insures you, and under what conditions does an insured event occur. Do you really think that experienced Pegasus lawyers will allow you to get insurance? "A miser pays twice"? Yes, but this is not the case. Why, for example, did we have to overpay $ 300 per family for excursions that Pegasus organized worse? (I mean that on a day trip to Jerusalem they don’t take to Bethlehem, they bring when it is already full of people, and on the Dead Sea it is either still cold, or the sun has already set.)

Thanks everyone for the replies! I can’t say that they helped me a lot, rather they confused me even more)))) How many people, so many opinions, you probably have to decide on the spot ..))
