Cairo o experiență de neuitat

January 17, 2026

Plecată din Hurghada, excursia la Cairo a fost obositoare dar mi-a îmbogățit perspectiva asupra vieții egiptenilor. Muzeul Nou este o minunăție…arhitectură, colecții..Ghidul Maya(Ala) este o femeie inteligentă, veselă și cultă. Atentă la programul excursiei dar și la dorințele turiștilor. Transportul cu Sea Shore …sigur și rapid. Recomand cu sinceritate această agenție.

Výlet do Luxoru soukromým transferem

January 15, 2026

Doporučuji. Průvodce Mahmoud – absolutní špička, moc doporučujeme přímo jeho. Nastupoval až v Luxoru, ale jeho vyprávění bylo velmi poutavé a hezky prožité. Česky uměl velmi dobře.

Jelo nás 9. Domluva bez problémů přes what’s up, řidič super, auto nové,ale mají malé místo pro pro nohy. Naštěstí jsme měli 2 děti, takže si ti větší mohli zabrat celé dvou sedadlo. Nechte si více času v Karnaku, je úžasný!! Pro nás vlastně to nejlepší z výletu. Údolí králů je takové rychlejší. Tři hrobky a skály. A vlastně tam nic moc není. Palác Hapšetsut je taky takový rychlejší a nic moc tam není..

Jediné co, tak nedoporučuji výlet po Nilu, když máte dobrý čas, je možné ho navíc přidat, ale těch 10e navíc za to nestojí, protože navíc nic moc nevidíte. Stačí přejet na druhou stranu a za ty peníze si třeba koupit Tutanchamona nebo něco. Čas raději nechte v Karnaku.

Focení v hrobkách jsme měli v ceně. Celkově doporučujeme 🙏
