Egypt Tourism Project Evaluation

The evaluation of the tourism project I participated in Egypt is as follows: Short version: Red Sea glass boat snorkeling is highly recommended. Luxor hot air balloon ride is worth a try if you haven't tried it. Alexandria is not recommended. Detailed version: Op1-3: Luxor Hot Air Balloon The first time I rode a hot air balloon, I couldn’t compare it to other hot air balloon projects in other regions. We set off from the hotel at 4:30 in the morning, and the hot air balloon began to inflate when the sunset appeared, which took about 10 minutes. When you reach the sky, you can enjoy the sun rising slowly from the east bank of the Nile River and overlook the Valley of the Kings (p1-2) ps: I recommend you find a way to apply for the project yourself. The travel agency's quotation is indeed high, but it is more affordable than Kenya. Friends who traveled with me said it was also cheaper than Türkiye p4-6: Red Sea glass boat + snorkeling The whole project takes about 2 hours. After half an hour at sea, the glass boat will go down to the lower level to view the underwater world through the glass. If it was just for the glass boat ride, I would only give it 3.8 points. There were a lot of fish and corals, but the corals seen through the glass were basically all the same color, and sometimes you could barely see different colors. It was also difficult to distinguish other colors of fish except black, white and silver. We started snorkeling about an hour after going out to sea. This project is included in the ticket price and is voluntary, but I strongly recommend friends who can swim to try it in the water! There is a staff member leading the way, each person has a diving mask and a life jacket, and everyone shares a lifebuoy. Friends who don’t feel safe can hold on, and it is ok to get on the boat after entering the water. The weather and seawater were a bit cold in February, but I couldn't resist the desire to see corals and fish and went into the water. It turned out to be worth it! You can see a lot of corals and fish right beside you when you put your head in the water.
