Answer 1

Make sure you go with somebody that speak arabic, a lot of the people there rip of tourists, trust me.

Answer 2

I went there and we went on this desert trip where we got to go on camels etc. it was c**p i recomend you dont do that lol. We went down to narma bay as well, its like a shopping place that was pretty good, but im pretty sure that got car bombed a few years ago so dunno if its still there.

Answer 3

Snorkeling under the sea of Ras Mohammad's area "GORGEOUS",

Ne'ama Bay "where there are nice shops, cafe's and restaurants",

Old Market,

A trip to Santa Catarina "at the desert where u can see Sinai Mountain",

Alf Laila we Laila "nice Outlet with some cafe's and has a nice stage at the center for belly dancings"

Tiran Island,

At sharm el shiekh, u will always find lots of fun stuff to do and to enjoy. And try to enjoy the magic of the red sea as possible, it's the best u may ever see..

Good Lluck :))

Answer 4

There are boat trips to either ras Mohamed or Tiran.  They last a day you get picked up from your hotel taking you to the boat before getting on the boat you get chance to rent flippers and snorkels.  The boat stops at various places where you get the chance to snorkel you have lunch on the boat.  You are taken back to your hotel.  

Quad biking depending on what you buy depends on what you do the basic quad biking experience is you go into the Sinai peninsula drive round for a bit and then stop for some shay (tea) in a Bedouin tent then drive back again.  There are others when you do the same but instead of just having tea you have dinner and enjoy some entertainment like dancing.  

Glass bottom boats to see the coral and fish.

To see the Pyramids you will either travel by bus which takes around 8 hours or you can fly which takes around 1 hour.  Flights costs £60 return per person bus costs around £15 one way per person.  

You can book all the above through excursion companies.  There may be one in your hotel or you will find them in Naama bay.  If you want to do any of the excursions above you will need to buy a visa when you arrive in Sharm airport.  

You will be perfectly safe going to Cairo and is worth going to see.  Unlike my answer for your other question you will have to at least cover your knees if not full length trousers but a t-shirt that is not low cut will be surfice.  Any men traveling will also have to cover the knee and a t-shirt.  Cairo is used to seeing many tourists but Cairo is the main place where Egyptians live and is less touristy than Sharm so by wearing what i have mentioned it shows a lot more respect to their culture.  I have to stress that Egypt is safe there is less crime rate than western countries and i feel a lot safter there than in the UK.
