Hvilke klær passer å ha på seg når du besøker Egypt, spesielt ved de historiske moskeene?

Enkle klær er bra, og i noen moskeer, som Al Azhar, kan kvinner få oppleve å bruke et skjørt med et sjal på hodet.

Får jeg gå inn i de historiske moskeene?

Javisst, og fordyp deg midt i blendende dekorasjoner med overlappende farger, gigantiske gull- og kobberskrifter, massive lysekroner, osv. Opplev en tid midt i den magiske historiske islamske verden.

Når starter Abu Simbel lyd- og lysshow?

Abu Simbel Lyd- og Lysshow er en fantastisk opplevelse som bringer den store historien til live. Disse showene er planlagt daglig kl. 18:30 og 19:30.

Hva kan jeg forvente meg når jeg besøker en nubisk landsby?

Fantastiske gater fulle av liv med vennlige, brunhudede mennesker og blendende fargerike murhus å vandre rundt i, sammen med den fantastiske utsikten over Nilens bredder, som tar deg inn i hjertet av den unike nubiske kulturen som kombinerer de gamle egyptiske trosoppfatningene og de fantastiske trosoppfatningene hos disse menneskene fra forskjellige grupper. Det er en fantastisk og eksklusiv verden på land.

Hva er den beste måten å reise fra Sharm el-Sheikh til Kairo på?

Den beste og koseligste måten er innenriksfly, som tar omtrent en time og 15 minutter, mens det tar 5 timer og 30 minutter med bil.

Hva er best: å gå på en guidet tur eller en gratis tur?

Egypt er stedet der du kan fordype deg i storslått historie, og besøke landet mens de store historiske hendelsene lokker deg til sine hemmeligheter og mysterier. Derfor er det nødvendig å ha en erfaren egyptolog som kan fortelle om hver hendelse og faktum ved hvert sted i de historiske attraksjonene for å oppleve fantastisk historie. Disse guidede turene med Golavita er prisgunstige.

Ashraf was our Egyptian professional guide for a Czech small group planned "Sacred journey to the chacra temples of Egypt". As the title already says, not only were we using his incredible life experience of an egyptolog, tourist guide and organiser. We were also using his experience with the places themselves, which of the extra tickets are worth the money to visit the extra places, which of the villages and shops are fair and having good things. And of course all the historical stories linked to the places we visited with open mind to some new more alternative explanations of happenings too. The organisation of our trip from Hurghada, through Asuan, Luxor, Ghiza and back Hurghada is fully his expertise. Minivans, boat, train... He was always with us handling all to our happiness ❤️ Buying extra water, bananas or ordering better for stomach digestion food.

We went in the Safari and Paradise Island boat trip. Both were very well organised, great activities and the transfer made by driver was on time! I recommend especially the Paradise Island trip! The views on the island are amazing and the boat trip until there has such grest service on the boat (snorkeling, lunch, drinks).

The luxor 2 day trip was amazing. We have young children who struggled at times, but the guide and driver were fantastic. Everyone enjoyed the historical sites, and the hot air balloon ride was incredible. I would definitely recommend this trip and this company.
