Egypt in April

Need some help for a mate, he and his wife want to travel from Manchester to Egypt, but not Cairo or Luxor.

Any time in April and all inclusive. Budget of max £450 per person.


I only know where to search if someone wants Spain :o :rotfl:
Work like you don't need money,
Love like you've never been hurt,
And dance like no one's watching
Save the cheerleader, save the world!

    I've been really messed about by otbeach.com this week, see my post here:
    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=4516198#post4516198

    Have a look of the Trip Advisor Sharm El Sheikh forum. Lots of useful info there.

    Do they really need AI? A lot of people go B&B.

    Fair enough if you have kids or drink a lot, but it is really cheap to eat out in Egypt (like REALLY cheap!) and the AI booze is usually local & nasty (except the beer). Imported alcohol is really expensive & hotel buffet food isnt always great.

    If you book independently, I would suggest XL or Thomas Cook for flights (Use code FTCA22 for a TC discount) and Travelrebuplic for similar for rooms. Hilton direct via their website has good prices depending on when you go.

    Halomy & Melia Sinai are good budget hotels with good reviews. Good luck.
