Egypt, wonders of Kairo and Luxor

One of the most famous attractions in the world, are the Pyramids in Kairo. A spectacular view of architecture from the ancient times and one of the 7 wonders of the world.

pyramids are the main attraction of Egypt and are visited by thousands of people every day. When you come to the sight you are amazed by the height that humans built 2000 years b.c.

Pyramids are easy to visit with a car or a bus and are only half hour drive away from Kairo.

Almost every time you visit this beautiful place the wind is wild and you will be really lucky if you don?t get any sand in your eyes.

Lots of locals are willing to take you on a camel ride around the 3 pyramids for some ''bakšiš'' or to take photos with them on the camel. 

BEDOUINS VILLAGE IN EASTERN SAHARA

  

 From Kairo To Luxor it's a high danger of terorist attacks so all the cars drive with military escort vehicles in a convoy. 

 

A broken tire took us another hour so we arrived late to Luxor and the next day started to discover a temple there among with a banana orchard the same day.

Trip took as 5 days and it is amazing to see what people were able to built in the ancient times. when you travel around Egypt you will see poverty and weird behavior of people. It's just another lesson to the first world people that Europe and USA don't really know what more then half of world population is facing on daily bases.

 The famous obelix one of 2 in the world, the second is available to see in Paris.

Egypt, Sharm el Sheikh

Merhaba!

Sharm el Sheikh is not a tipical Arabic city. It is a turistic capital of Egypt. I have to say that it never gets boring. You have thousands of clubs, night bars and luxury hotels to visit there and by the day miles of sand beaches with coral reefs just around the corner.

Because I am not kind of a person who can stay still in one place for a more then one week, I had to try driving through Sahara on ATV. It was amazing! Sand everywhere and we visited Bedouins after a couple of hours long drive. People really are living different around the world, but they are special. Bedouins live in the middle of Sahara and are not having any contact with the outside world.

Sharm is providing you with lots of different water activites. One day I was kiteboarding and the other diving one the coral reefs. You can probably do everything there, from windsurfing to paragliding and driving a buggie one the beach. It's one of the greatest places on earth to learn how to windsurf or how to do any other sports on water.

When you come to Egypt almost in every bar they are smoking ''shisha'' their national and coltural water pipe with hundreds of different flavors. It's really cheap, One shisha costs from 2-5€ and it's enough for 3 people for 30min.

Hotel Sultan Beach resort, I was staying in had 5* and the service in it was really worth the money. Hotel is providing with a whole day program for children, all inclusive  food with European drinks and activites for adults. I really recommend it if you are planing to visit Sharm.
