Any of the boat trips that offer snorkel or scuba diving. It’s a full day on a boat with a few different spots. Ask the hotel

Rep to recommend which ones are the best for the area.

The pyramids I found was a waste of money and 16 hour return journey on a coach

You can get a flight but that costs a bit more and it’s hot and miss I was told if they fly out.

Where in Sharm are you staying?

Makes sense.. my apologies.

Most of the hotel reps I’ve dealt with have been awesome and don’t push things on you.

No doubt you’ll enjoy it

I’d recommend taking euros and pounds too

The Egyptian currency is pretty much worthless

Yeah they don’t like coins. And will try and get you to use anything other than EGP.

All the loose change I get throughout the holiday I leave in the hotel

Room when I leave. I found they didn’t seem to have a lot when I said I had English pounds and could buy pretty much everything for £5/£10

Went on January 10th got visa on the plane. Make sure you put your flight number on as the security guy at the airport wasn't very helpful to people who hadn't been told to do it on the plane, caused big delays getting through.

As said definitely visit Soho Square it's amazing, ice bar is brilliant. Just remember all the stuff in the shops is fake no matter what the owner says and how good the shops look. Barter and you can get a good bargain. If you go with Tui they do a good trip that includes Old Market and Soho Square and a Hard Rock cafe at Narm and a few other stops that works out cheaper than seeing them separately by taxi.

Spoke to someone who went to the resort last year and they were more expensive. They went on the boat trip, which was £50 each, and they said Jasmine did the same trip for £30 and it was exactly the same

Word of advice to married/attached guys.

If you have a single account on here and your wife doesn't know, best not to have face pics on your account. especially with your location on and strutting around the hotel with your wife and child.

Or she may know, who knows
