Egypt

I started my trip to Egypt in Sharm El-Sheikh. From there I took some day trips to places around. Sharm El-Sheikh has nice beaches and a beautiful and vivid city center. At the end of March it was warm and sometimes a little windy, but more than ok for swimming. The food in the hotel was tasty and good. I did not have any problems with that. And the staff was really nice and helped me with all my questions. During the days I just relaxed at the beach or played volleyball or took a walk around the area. The city center is very nice. There is a big, amazing mosque and a lot of shops that sell typical egyptian goods. It was very nice to walk around in the evening.The beach is very nice and the water is clear. I did some snorkeling there which was amazing. The fishes are so colorful and there is a big variety of them.

Sharm El-Sheikh

The day trip was organized by a tourist organization. We started in the morning and went to the desert close to Sharm El-Sheikh. There we started with a short ride through the sands with camels. It was a little scary at the beginning, but they are kind animals and the guides help you. At the end of that ride we arrived at a bedouin village and had some tea there. We had a nice conversation with the bedouins and it was very interesting.After that we went to another place and started our quad tour through the sands of the desert. This was really fun.We ended up in a calm place in the desert where already some food was waiting for us. In the evening there was a show with typical music and dance that also involved the audience.In the evening we went back with the quads and then took the bus back to the hotel.

Another day trip I did was to a beautiful beach not far from Sharm El-Sheikh. We started the tour on a boat that brought us to a snorkeling place in the middle of the sea. On the way we had an amazing few on the beaches and cliffs of the Red Sea. They prepared a delicious lunch for us and we talked with the guide about many interesting things.At the snorkeling place in the middle of the sea we could see so many fishes and corals. It was really beautiful. Then we went on with the boat - and also part of the way with a speedboat - to a very amazing beach with clear water and almost white sand.There we swam in the sea and in the evening we had a tasty dinner.After that we did some more snorkeling in a place close by and after that we went back to the hotel - a little tired, but happy.
