The good guide to Self Catering in Sharm El Sheikh
Sharm El Sheikh is becoming more and more popular each year with thousands visitors come to the station throughout the year. Many holiday makers who have visited the town before and stayed in a hotel chain are looking for alternative and that is with a kitchen in one of the many apartments and studios.
Sharm El Sheikh now has many privately owned apartments, studios and condominiums and many of these are rented for your vacation.
Some of the advantages of renting an apartment in Sharm El Sheikh is that you are not tied to his hotel for having to be back lunch and dinner, giving you more quality time to explore the complex. You can also bring their own alcoholic beverages are not allowed in most hotels and in some cases alcohol may be confiscated. Other advantages are a more relaxed more, no loud music late at night blurred or be caught by the entertainment hotel, after all, it's your holiday and you can find most of his own shows in a busy centers. And most importantly it has the option to cook their own food.
It's a good idea to buy food and supplies to start their holidays, and buy enough for the entire duration of their stay, most apartments have a refrigerator to keep meat and vegetables, but check when booking your holiday apartment.
Sharm El Sheikh has improved dramatically in recent years and now provides for the feast of self catering, supermarkets sell meat, vegetables and dairy products, some of the best are the Metro supermarket is located in Nabq Bay and Naama Bay the past only in the manner and Hadaba Old Market. Metro Supermarkets are closer than you come to our stores back home selling fresh meat, vegetables and dairy products, in fact, everything you need for your car Holiday in Sharm el Sheikh, also have a home delivery service which makes it easier for you.
Other major supermarkets are sharm July 24 are located in Naama Bay and the old market with small shops selling food and cooking utensils. for details of where the nearest supermarket is you are a couple of free brochures monthly, these directories tell you where to eat, shop, and places to visit and lists of all supermarkets Sharm El Sheikh, pamphlets called The Mix and The Book of these can be found in cafes, supermarkets, restaurants and bars.
Alcohol and cigarettes are best bought in Old Market in Sharm El Maya is located about 6 km south of Naama Bay. Old Market has the charm of ancient Egypt with its bazaars, shops souvenirs, perfume shops and colorful spices, the Old Market has everything you need for your vacation rental, and very good prices. Look for the Heineken shop in downtown Old market this is the cheapest I've found for beer and spirits.
try the local beers or mark as Sakara stella imported Beers are more expensive.
Cigarettes can be bought in small food shops of points in and around Old Market these are the most cheap with prices fixed.
Beware of vendors who sell cigarettes they may be false and you have to haggle over the price. Fruits, vegetables and meats can be purchased at Old Market rates.
As Old Market is a popular tourist destination there are many souvenir shops, as in Cairo and Luxor have to haggle in the shops at the best price, once the hang of it, is great fun. One of my tips for bargain is to ask the price, half and work around that figure, try to pay no more than two thirds of the original figure. Remember that there is probably another shop a few meters from the sale of the same thing, so if you can not get a good price for the first time you can get a better deal the second, third and so on.
The whole of Sharm El Sheikh stretches from the Bay right Nabq Bay Sharm El Maya more than 30 miles total. so if you intend to see a bit of the place you have to move in some way taxi transport, micro bus or rental car. Taxis are reasonably cheap way of getting round, depending on how much you use, you recently had A review of old Peugeot mood bright new ones, it was to Sharm El Sheikh the new aspect of the market up. All official taxis are blue and white with its own unique fleet number, make note of your number if you want to use the new driver, the driver will probably hassle for businesses.
Blue and white taxis with fixed rates for the destination, but before entering, the fate of state and cost of the fare because some drivers still ask for more money or advice to final travel.
Never get in blue and white pills are not the taxis, some will ask if you want a ride and then pay for the service demand is there. Stay away from taxi touts in Naama Bay are on a commission. There are hundreds of taxis in Naama Bay so easy to get your own, you may even be able to negotiate a price below the fixed.
Other cheaper means of transport to get you out and around your apartment for rent are public minibuses, are also blue and white and have fixed prices because there is destiny, but will try to charge tourists more of the tariff, the tariff rates can be found at bus stops bus in Naama Bay, in large rooms or free information booklets such as mixing or the book. Micro buses get very crowded during peak hours especially on workers to take the morning of Egypt at work, but if you do not mind this, then it is a very inexpensive way to get around.
If you have an international driver's license and want to drive in Sharm El Sheikh and rent a car, this could be the best long-term option to get around, fuel is very cheap at around 2 LE one liters in Egypt. Having the freedom of you own car gives you more options to fully explore the many attractions of Sharm El Sheikh. International driving license must be applied again in their own country. UK application forms can be downloaded from RAC website.
