Wir waren bisher einmal mit dem Flugzeug in Kairo, hat super geklappt. Diese Woche haben wir mit Erlebnisreisen Ägypten eine individuelle Stadtrundfahrt gemacht. Ich bin schon viele Jahre regelmäßig in Hurghada, Sie konnten mir aber eine ganze Menge Neues zeigen, das ich beim nächsten mal zu Fuß erkunden werde.
