Until recently, there were no direct flights in the Astana — Sharm El Sheikh direction. Currently, there are several flight options: direct, with layovers, and charter. The most economical, despite the time it takes, is with a layover in Istanbul. The charter is available only at the height of the season, and tickets for it are purchased through a travel company.

  • The famous resort of Sharm El Sheikh stretches along the western coast of Egyptian Aqaba. Locals call it the sheikh's bay. It compares favorably with the other resorts of Egypt thanks to its modernity and light romantic mood. The Sinai Mountains shield the city from winds and bad weather. They are also among the main attractions. We recommend visiting the Monastery of Saint Catherine, Ras Muhammad, and the Nabq nature reserves.

    The climate of Sharm El Sheikh is very hot, similar to Dubai, so tourists are advised to stock up on clothing made of light fabrics that cover the skin from the midday heat. The thermometer can rise to +45°C, and the water temperature rarely drops to +20°C.

    About two hundred hotels operate in the city. At the same time, you are unlikely to find a high-rise building. All residential buildings are well-appointed townhouses. The district's infrastructure is developed — here you will find:

    • cafés;
    • shops;
    • supermarkets;
    • shopping and entertainment centers;
    • water parks and swimming pools.

    The overwhelming majority of the population practices Sunni Islam, and only 10% of residents are Christians. But religious differences are not particularly noticeable, because for many years the resort has remained European-oriented.

  • The airport of Sharm El Sheikh is the largest on the Sinai Peninsula. It accounts for most of the international traffic. It is here that the overwhelming majority of tourists disembark. The resort is extremely popular among Europeans and residents of the former Soviet Union.

    You can buy tickets in the Sharm El Sheikh direction at a good price through our Freedom Travel service. You can compare offers from different air carriers to choose the best option. The flight price depends not only on the season but also on the day of the week. As a rule, on weekdays in the evening, leading airlines significantly reduce ticket prices.
