Egypt

21/07/2021

Vacation time!! <3 I can't even say how excited I am about it after tough exam period that just ended for me at my university. Best feeling ever...

And our destination is Egypt!! I am going there with my boyfriend for a week just to relax, sunbathe, read a book that I have from Christmas - can you believe it? I didn't have time to read it since I got it as a present.

Vacation on the Red sea beaches

Do you see the photo on the left? Yeah this is how Egypt coast looks like from the airplane. Isn't that beautiful? 

It is not my first time I'm travelling to Egypt, actually it's my 4th time in my life - I've been there as a child with my parents and also grandparents and I love returning back there. Why? Simple - kite surfing and snorkelling. 

For me, Egypt is a really lovely low-budget option for a holiday when you just want to relax, don't care about cooking and you don't really need to travel around. All inclusive vacation in 4/5 star hotel with aquapark, gym, pool and private beach costs around 600 EUR/ person with airplane tickets and hotel transfer included. 

This time we stayed in Aladdin Beach Resort in Hurghada (https://aladdinbeachresort.com-hurghada.com/en/) which is a 4 star hotel with 2 pools, lagoon, sand beach, pool and beach bar, it's own aquapark included in the price, gym and tennis courts. Rooms were clean and we had a beautiful view on the lagoon from our balcony. The choice of food was big and everything was delicious. Staff there were awesome, helpful and friendly. We didn't find any negative thing during our stay there.

Moreover there is a shipwreck in the sea in the location of the hotels private beach - far enough so it is safe for children, but still close enough to go snorkelling there - I had just a basic equipment and it was totally enough. I saw a lot of fish there.

Also in Egypt you can go on many trips. I recommend: Pyramids of Giza, Luxor, Abu Simbel... that is definitely worth visiting! But have a lot of water and light clothes - hot weather will be your enemy :D. I skipped it this time as I've already been there. Next thing you can do is to go to buggy trip to desert for example or glass bottom boat trip to "Egyptian Maldives" and you definitely cannot skip snorkelling!
