Tourist Trap: Tiran Island
  • Tip Rating:
  • This boattrip for scubadiving /snorkeling is totally overcrowded, You will have more problems with other divers/snorkelers than the reefs and fishes and our guide was a complete clown, the meal at the boat was ok.
    It cost us about 350 Le (2 pers) - wasted money.
    You can see all the white spots at the picture in the horizon - its divng boats!!!!!

    At Least Do This: Enjoy the boatride - its sunny!
    Alternative: Go by jeepsafari to a diving spot like Ras Mohammad,Dahab, or a taxi to Far garden,Middle garden, Near garden etc........
    Buy a diving map - its well used money.

    Tourist Trap: A trip to Cairo
  • Tip Rating:
  • If You book this trip by Your hotel You will pay 300$ - if You take the local bus in Old Sharm You will pay 10$ (singel way ticket) and the journey takes about 6 hours!!!!
    Itīs easy to reach if you ask a cabdriver, he will drive you to the busstation.
