Egypt It confidently holds the leadership among popular beach destinations for Russian tourists in February and early March, combining affordable prices, quality infrastructure and travel convenience.
Head of public relations of tour operator Coral Travel Marina Makarkova:
Compared to other available winter destinations, Egypt benefits from competitive fares, no visa restrictions and a short flight of just 4-5 hours to the resorts. On the Red Sea coast there are hotels of leading brands - Rixos, Titanic, Sunrise, Sunny, Jaz, Pickalbatros and others - they all offer an all-inclusive system, which makes the holiday predictable and comfortable.
According to Coral Travel, the tour in February Hurghada For 7 days in a hotel 3* with breakfast can be purchased for only 55 thousand rubles for two. And in early March, taking into account the three-day weekend on March 8, a ticket to the 4* all-inclusive hotel starts from 109 thousand rubles for two.
It is especially advantageous to plan a trip in February - at this time the peak of the tourist season is not yet coming, so you can combine a sea holiday with a visit to attractions: the pyramids of Giza, the temples of Luxor and Thebes - all this is available without crowds and long queues. In April, when the high season begins, excursions become less comfortable - crowded buses, long lines, rising prices. It is better to have time before that, said Makarkova.
The water temperature in the Red Sea in February-March ranges from 21-25°C, which is ideal for diving and snorkeling. In Sharm el-Sheikh and Hurghada, the weather is stable - during the day +24-27 ° C, without sharp changes.
