Dates: 6.12.2009-14.12.2009
Organisation and route: flights booked independently. From Sharm, trip to St. Katherina
Closter we booked at local travel agency. Than complete stay in Cairo was organised by
Erlebe Fernreisen travel agency (for Egypt: www.erlebe-aegypten.de) offering individual
service.
Opinion on travel agency and facilities quality: In Cairo hotel (Victoria Hotel, 66, El
Gomhoria Street) was not luxus but acceptable given nice ambience (old style) and
location in the center. Guide service was good and only dedicated to us (individual service)
allowing flexibility.
Photo equipment used: Canon EOS 450D with 18-55 and 55-250 IS zooms and Canon
Powershot A720 (with wide angle converter and under water shell).
Weather: this was nice most of the time since hottest season was over however in Cairo we
experienced also cloudy sky and rain. Water in red see was quite cold i.e. neoprene was
necessary for snorkelling or swimming.
What to avoid: buying in shops anything at the first offered price. We experienced up to 10
times price drops upon showing limited interest. Getting involved into conversations with
anyone willing to sell you anything.
Highlights: Reefs close to the hotel in Sharm and the city of Cairo with sight seeing sites
around.
