El caso es que soy fatal para negociar y no se si el precio es correcto o no.

Pido otros presupuestos para comparar? Me podeis pasar contacto?

Alguien sabe que es “hot natural spring” del 3er día de recorrido?
He leido que en Djara Cave hay pinturas rupestres? Es cierto?
Yo lo daba por hecho, pero no lo mencionan… si se puede quiero verlas, ademas de las estalactitas.
Sabeis si les puedo pedir que me las enseñen? O mejor una vez estemos allí?
Se puede visitar la cueva mas en profundidad o no me van a dejar x ser turista?
No sera mas dificil que entrar en la Mastaba 17 de Meidum.
Toda ayuda es bienvenida, muchas gracias a todos

Buenos días compañeros viajeros,
voy a Nepal del 2 al 20 de mayo y mi idea hacer el circuito del Annapurna. Yo ya lo hice en 2015 pero esta vez le quería enseñar las maravillas de Nepal a mi pareja. Yo he estado ya 3 veces en Nepal y siempre he caminado solo. En esta ocasión necesitaremos un porteador para llevar la mochila de ella. Además parece que han hecho obligatorio el llevar un guia o porteador.
1.- Alguien sabe si con el porteador es suficiente o hay que contratar tambien un guía de acuerdo con la legislación vigente? Hay mucho control sobre eso?
2.-ALGUIEN ME PUEDE RECOMENDAR UN CONTACTO PARA ALQUILAR AL PORTEADOR? SOBRE TODO NECESITO QUE SEA FLEXIBLE PORQUE EL ITINERARIO LO VAMOS DECIDIENDO DEPENDIENDO DE COMO NOS SINTAMOS ASÍ COMO DONDE QUEDARNOS. HE VISTO QUE ALGUNOS HABLAIS MUY BIEN DE AVI. ME PODEIS PASAR SU CONTACTO POR FAVOR?
3.- Anteriormente he viajado siempre en marzo-Abril. Creeis que puedo pillar lluvia en mayo?
MUCHAS GRACIAS.
NAMASTE!

I´ve just come back from a great trip to Nepal and I had the best experience trekking with Avi. He is probably not only the best guide you can find to help you with your trekk, but also an amazing person. But let´s start from the beginning.
I was wandering around the streets of Thamel, when Avi "found" me and approached me. Although it was only my 2 day in Thamel I had already enough from all those Nepali scammers and sellers that come near you trying to sell you ANYTHING (from tiger balm to weed or a trekk to the mountains...). However, the way Avi talked to me was different. I immediately understood he was different from the others that just saw me as some kind of "walking-money". After a few minutes of conversation, he gave me his card and told me to take my time to think about it, and offered a tea to discuss the trekk in case I was interested. I went directly after to take that tea with him and his honesty and good heart made easy for me to "choose" him as my guide for the trekk. The day after he invited me for a tea at his flat and I could see where my money was going. This is not like the big agencies around thamel that clearly have the money already. Here you are helping someone that does his job because he loves it, but also to provide for a family with 2 young daughters. I could see that even though they live in a very humble place, Avi offered me everything I needed. He borrowed me one of his backpacks for the trekk and also told me he would take a hat, gloves, telescopic poles and a sleeping bag that he would carry for me in case I need it. After claryifying the details, he took me to a local place for lunch, where we also met another girl looking for a trekking. Again, Avi was super kind to her and eventhough taking one more person meant more money for him, he talked to me and let me decide if we would take her or not with us. I thought 3 would be better and it would mean more money for Avi, who after Covid struggled to keep his family and house fine. Avi also helped her a lot to find the materials she needed for the trekk and even borrow and carry most of them.
Once in the trekk, Avi is not just a guide, he is a friend. But obviously he knows a lot about the area. We did the Annapurna circuit and as he promised from the beginning, every time he could find us free or cheaper accomodation/food he did it. He also help us constantly to get what we wanted and to feel as much comfortable as possible. For the first days, he shared with us some cucumbers with himalayan salt that he bought in Kathmandu. He was also always there to offer his food in case we were still hungry. And even with the other girl, he stayed for the whole time next to her, walking at her pace and supporting her since she was struggling to accomplish the trekk. He was really supportive with her and even when she decided to quit for health reasons, he helped her... ➡️ Leer más ...

He was really supportive with her and even when she decided to quit for health reasons, he helped her organising her transport back down, getting her the best service and the best price (I was there when he was bargaining for the price).
The last part of the trekk we did it alone the 2 of us. I cant be happier of having completed the Annapurna circuit with a friend like Avi. With him I felt safe and that I could always trust him. After we finished, I saw how other tourists had many problems regarding altitude sickness. However, Avi took me through the right steps and together we managed to pass by 5416m without any symptom.
The last days after the pass he stayed with me and some friends we made along the way, helping us finding the best deal for accomodation and the best option for transport (it is pretty bad the situation in the rainy season). There was not a single person of the ones that stayed with us that didnt love Avi and that didnt tell me how lucky I was of having him. He can really charm anyone, its amazing.
But really, if you are thinking of going to Nepal and trekk around the country, just contact Avi... ➡️ Leer más ...

From walking on a picturesque sandy beaches, to hiking in between the great canyons in the star valley, Qeshm island is a must see island, which has more to offer than meets the eye,
Qeshm Island is ideally located in south of Iran, close to Bandar Abbas, one of Iran’s famous sea port and benefits from a large amount of hours of sun per year, so it makes it an ideal place to travel to all year round.
The dolphin shape island, allows you to enjoy being entertained by the friendly dolphins and the underwater world in either one of their shows or even meeting up-close while you’re having a dip in one of the turquoise seas around this amazing island.
Iran might be famous for its Kish island as one of the most sought after touristic destinations, but Qeshm is truly one of the hidden gems of Iran, which offer a variety of entertainment, landscapes, beaches, cuisines and fun activity for all tastes; So wherever you travel in Qeshm, you’ll find it has rich tales to share; history, and a lot of legends.

Qeshm has strong trade and cultural ties to India and Pakistan, and you can taste some of the cultural exchange in the more spice oriented cuisine compared to the rest of Iran.
However, they truly know themselves to be Iranian first and foremost, and the rest of the food is prepared the traditional Iranian way.
Discover Hara Marine forests (Mangrove jungle)
It is said around 1.5% of world’s birds and 25% of Iran’s native birds can be found in this beautiful Mangrove tree forests. Depending on the time of your visit, you can go about on the waterways during the high tides and enjoy the beautiful mangroves.

Portuguese Fortress
Portuguese Castle is one of the remaining architectures left behind from the time of the Portuguese occupancy of the island in the 16th century to maintain control over the Strait of Hormoz, some locals believe the name for some Islands around Qeshm and Hormoz originated from Portuguese roots with the mean of “good economy Island”.

The roaming Gazelle which obtain their drinking water from pressing their hooves into the ground populate this beautiful island in the Persian Gulf.

la cosa es que queda bastante lejos de koh tao, y por eso dejaron de hacerlo. la iniciativa no saldría rentable, imagino.
Gracias Malik!
Otra opción es pillar el primer ferry hacia KON phangan ( está solo a una hora) y hacerlo desde allí. Luego coger un ferry de la tarde hacia koh tao. Supongo q esto sería posible, no?
No sé si ya llego tarde.
A mí me pasa un poco lo mismo, me alojo en Ko Tao y me apetecía hacer el tour. Escribí a Island Travel y me contestaron lo siguiente:
Price and detail: Non refund Lomprayah tickets round trip to Koh Phangang 1200 thb/pax
Trip 2600 thb (included the entry fee 300 thb)
Total cost 3800 thb with or without Kayaking are same price.
Check in at Lomprayah pier Koh Tao 5.30 pm
(no pick up at hotel, book private taxi please check price again, some hotel have free shuttle)
• Depart from Koh Tao with 06:00 Lomprayah pier
• Meeting point at Koh Phangan Safari, Thong Sala
• Continental breakfast (coffee, tea, cookies, fresh fruit)
• Board the speedboat to Ang Thong Marine Park – Approx. 45 minutes away
• Snorkeling at the best spot at Koh Wao / Koh Tay Plaoy
• Emerald Lake – Talay Nai – Short walk to the most incredible viewpoint to see all 42 islands of the marine park
• Sightseeing around the park exploring Monkey Island, cruise around the park.

Es bastante caro y hay que liar una buena para llegar, así que estamos pensándolo.
Espero que sirva de ayuda. ➡️ Leer más ...

Hello *****,
Greetings from Wadi Rum! and thank you for your interest in our tours.
We will be delighted to welcome you on our Bedouin Day tour (jeep and short walks), including dinner, overnight and breakfast in our unique Eco camp. Please find below our full itinerary and conditions, if everything looks ok for you, let us know to confirm. If you want to add another person later on just let us know.
A little about our ethos: we are passionate about sharing with you the breathtaking landscapes of the Wadi Rum desert. Only desert-born Bedouin can reveal the life and ancient traditions of the nomadic tribes; at the same time we actively promote sustainable development through responsible, ecologically-aware tourism. Our secluded, private Bedouin camp is the only one in the protected area where you can enjoy a warm shower and lighting powered by solar panels.
Itinerary:
After a first tea with the team you will visit by jeep all the main places of Wadi Rum including Lawrence’s Spring, the Nabataean inscriptions of Khazali and An Fashiyeh, the red sand dunes, the rock bridges of Um Fruth and Burdah, Barragh canyon where you can have a one hour walk, and Lawrence’s house. You will enjoy a good Bedouin lunch cooked on the spot, and maybe a pleasant nap in the shade of a mountain. You will also walk through Abu Khasheiba canyon and we will go to a special place to see the sunset before we go to our camp for freshly-cooked Bedouin dinner and a night in our comfortable tents.
The next morning we will drive you back to the village around 8:30am, or we offer a special option to ride back to Wadi Rum by camel, travelling along ancient trade routes at a natural pace just like the Bedouin and really seeing the world through their eyes. It takes around 2 hours and you arrive in Wadi Rum village at around 10:30 am. The price to return by camel is 30 JD per person. Just let me know if you would like to add this on to your tour.
Booking information:
Dates: 14-15 July
Tour: Bedouin Day / overnight
Participants: 2
Price per person: 55 JD/person
Total price: 110 JD
You might share the tour with other people (maximum 6) if other guests come on the same date, or you can book a private tour for an extra charge.
Meeting:
We meet at 9:30 am at our office, located in the centre of Wadi Rum village, in front of the mosque (around two hours driving from Petra, one hour from Aqaba). Here we will drink tea and you will meet your Bedouin guide. Please kindly keep in mind that we charge an additional 60 JD/group for arrivals after 10am.
We can arrange transportation before and after your tour, just let us know; and if you are coming by car you can leave it safely next to our office while you are in the desert.
You can leave extra luggage in our secure office and take with you just what you need for your tour and overnight.
Our guides:
Our professional, English-speaking guides are experienced, friendly and entertaining. They are always local Bedouins, born in Wadi Rum desert and proud to share with you all the history and facts from their ancestral knowledge.
Our camp:
Our Eco-camp is situated in the protected area, 10 km away from Wadi Rum village in the valley of Abu Hassaran in the area of Um Fruth rock bridge. We provide all the accommodation to spend an unforgettable night in the desert, where you can experience its very special silence and charm.

Afternoon Tea is one of those mightily unnecessary things in life that are oh so enjoyable
Yo me voy a atrever hacer en coche la ruta azul y verde, asi que os cuento mi experiencia a l vuelta en Noviembre. Por lo que he leido en internet, si es viable .
Os pongo un comentario que lei (esta en ingleS).
I had problems finding people with the same itinerary, so I've posted mine. Hope it helps people planning to travel this route, a little of the desert, a little beach, and a little touristy destinations.
Period: 15 - 28 Nov
People: 3 guys
Style: Backpacking
Guidebooks: Rough Guide + Lonely Planet
Special note: Pls bring pens. Lots of them, especially ones you get for free. There will be Egyptians who will ask for pens instead of money as tips. This is because these people want good quality "foreign" pens for their children to write with in school. I find this very noble, and regretted not bringing more to Egypt.
Day 1: Arrive Cairo 5.30am. Took a airport bus, then public bus [1LE] to downtown Cairo. Managed to make our way to somehow to Turgoman Station [Cairo Gateway]. We got tickets (direct) to Siwa for 65LE/p. Bus leaves 7+pm. Pretty decent bus.
Day 2: Reach Siwa at 5am. It was the Eid al-Adha, so everywhere was booked out. We had to wait to 12pm for people to check out before we got a place anywhere.
Hotels: Shali and Albabenshal Lodge is extremely pretty. The roof of Albabenshal is a place to take photos of the town just before the sunrise.
We didn't stay in Yousef, but its owner Yousef was very friendly.
We stayed in El Kelany. Decent place for about 100+ LE for 3 people.
Food: Abdu restaurant has a convenient location, and serves pretty decent food.
Nour El Waha - Fantastic laidback ambience and great food for reasonable price! Come at night, when you can smoke Shisha, have dinner, and chat up fellow travellers around a bonfire.
Restaurant right in front of Albabenshal: I don't remember the name, but this restaurant serves great roasted chicken at night + camel kebab.
Activities: The standard fare includes dune driving (our driver did some "stunt" driving up and down steep dunes!), going to hot (scam) and cold (beautiful) spring, fossil site (full of ugly broken shells), and finally to watch the sunset. For the adventurous, remember to try out sandboarding!
Day 4: We booked a private 4WD for 3 people for 1300LE per vehicle at Siwa Friends/Tourist Association [check rough guides for address]. Most places will charge you 1500LE. You will need to book one day in advance as military permits (pay separately) are needed. Bring lunch along as there are no restaurants along the desert highway.
The desert view is simply stunning, and we passed by a chasis of a (german) fighter place supposedly from WWII in the middle of the desert.
Day 4 late noon (Bahariya Desert): We reach Desert Safari Home in the early evening after about 8 hours in the car. It's a pretty and clean place, relatively cheap if you book through hostelworld.com. It is run by a father and his son. The son is a jolly young chap, extremely friendly and helpful. His father, however, is a different story. He would not hesitate to conveniently round up/add in any cost not clarified beforehand, and gets impatient if you ask too many questions and show that you are on a tight budget. However, if you are very clear all prices agreed upfront, then it shouldn't be any problem.
Food: It is hard to find food anywhere. You can check LP or RG, but easiest and reasonably cheap option is to dine at Desert Safari Home.
Day 5: The usual package is a visit to a nearby spring, crystal mountain, black and white desert, with a overnight stay highly recommended. We didn't go to the spring as it was supposedly closed on that day, crystal mountain was quite scammish (small pieces of quartz scattered about), black desert is just a desert with lots of black rocks, but white desert is amazing! Lots of really strange rock formation, and as we had a full moon that night, everything was a ghostly and... ➡️ Leer más ...
