You write to me sometimes emails asking, to recommend a hotel, hostel or other hostel in different places. Traveling is not always using this type of service, I am a fan of CouchSurfing, or simply visit friends. But it happens. As in Egypt, where in each city we visit a hotel, and each time it is a new adventure :) So I gather there may be some useful addresses. Aha, I give only indicative prices, I know - they change depending on the season, number of tourists and negotiating skills. Descriptions of hotels, of course, very subjective.

At the pyramids
Normally this is something like: air-conditioned tour coach arrives at the Pyramids of Giza. The vehicle stops at the Pyramid of Cheops. Tour gets off, a few photos on the background of the pyramid, tour of the interior, tour gets. Bus passes under the pyramid of Khafre. Again: exit, zdjęcie, sightseeing, Boarding. The coach takes you to a viewpoint trippers. Step off, zdjęcphotoatory in the pose of a I hold the tip of the pyramid), Boarding. The coach goes into the Sphinx. Tour gets off, photo, gets in and drives away trip. This deluxe version of the same pattern but an air-conditioned limousine, np. Mercedes. Version on Lokales is again the same, but on a camel, or horse. A version of Eve and Raphael – also the same, but on foot!

From Alexandria to Cairo
Closer to the end of the trip means a slower pace. We feel, Here we were in Egypt for some months. The heat abated, Even after returning to Cairo, so the temperature does not interfere, as at the beginning. The only, at the Alexandria gives the characters more in the crowd and noise. By the sea was like a little. Very holiday atmosphere.

Od Abu Simbel do Aleksandrii
Hmm… Maybe some of you here present know how to explain the idea of a convoy to Abu Simbel in Egypt? Toto goes on 4:00 the morning. In one place attracts the coaches and busiki. Police counted them, and you can start. And then everyone goes their pace. Ends in such a way, that we get to Abu Simbel later, than the first busiki, but earlier than most coaches. Police in that our convoy is not visible. Anyway, the only, what you see is desert, pustynia, desert… So why this convoy?

Aswan
In Aswan is not so easily to the Internet. The easiest way was to in Luxor - There we were at the hotel wifi, but also in the area could find plenty of internet cafes. In Cairo, some hotels had access to the network, This happens in our lack, but the next one could use the cafes. Net is not here at the hotel, a cafe is far, and the other was just a sign on the wall :)
