Port El Kantaoui

Advantages: Beautiful Beaches
Disadvantages: Mainly For Couples, Hassle From Local Shopkeekers

...Port El Kantaoui is a purpose built Holiday Resort on the Northern Coast of Tunisia in North Africa. It is situated just a few kilometres North of Sousse, Tunisia's second largest City after the Capital Tunis. It was built in 1979 with a modern 300 Yacht capacity Marina as its focal point. In recent years this Marina has become a popular mooring location for the rich and famous undertaking their Mediterranean Cruises and the Marina here is said to rival those long established Marinas of Nice and Marbella on the Southern Coast of Europe. It is now also Tunisia's most popular Holiday Resort. I stayed in Port El Kantaoui between the 2nd and 9th July 2006 and found the experience to be a rather interesting one. Since it was my first visit to Tunisia I was a little unsure of what to expect and as my Holiday approached I began to hear...

Don't pass on El Paso

Advantages: Fantastic hotel.
Disadvantages: They made me go home !!

...the lagoon, this had it's own beach and the bottom of the pool was sandy - it literally was like being in a real lagoon, and there were lovely palm trees to shade under if needed. For Halloween, the 1st floor of the hotel is specially decorated with the colours of fear. The rooms display various themes. The Burn hotel, an annexe to the El Paso also opens for Halloween. Here, you will find a room decorated as a stage with false blood in the mirrors and bathroom blinds. The black colour dialogues with the low lighting of the chandeliers in the rooms. Between 9:00 PM and 2:00 AM, ghost actors enter and move around the rooms. Clients come here with their families to get them scared. Be careful, kids may get frightened. Avoid this period if you are not at all interested on this. Breakfast: upon arrival, you will be asked to provide your...

  Charm-El-Sheik!

Advantages: Snorkelling, the red sea, food, price, heat.
Disadvantages: The runs!

...Me and my partner stayed in a hotel called the Conrad Sharm El Sheik in Egypt for a week from Monday 12th of June to the 19th of June. We had the most amazing holiday and I hope you enjoy reading my review of what I consider one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited in my life. I will start by reviewing the actual travel agents, etc then go on to the beautiful Sharm! Who did you book with? We booked with a well known travel Agent called First Choice. How much did it cost and what did it include? The total cost of the holiday for both of us came to 1058. This was for a week's stay in a four stay hotel, all inclusive basis, including travel insurance, flights and flight meals as well. We paid a 240 sterling pound deposit and we paid the rest off in installments. We booked the holiday in December 2005 and the money...

Delicious - Old El Paso Burritos

Advantages: Quick, easy, very filling, and absolutely delicious!
Disadvantages: Not particularly healthy

...Last year I developed a curiosity for Mexican food. It had never appealed to me before, but during a visit to London?s O2 Arena my partner and I chose to eat at a Mexican restaurant, mainly due to everywhere else having ridiculously long queues. Having had very little experience of Mexican cuisine, I wasn?t really familiar with the names of many of the dishes when it came to ordering my meal, so I settled on what I thought must be the safest option - a chicken burrito in black bean sauce. It was absolutely delicious! After that meal I went on to experience regular cravings for Mexican food, and began researching Mexican restaurants in my area. Then someone recommended Old El Paso meals as a cheaper ?stay at home? option. As I don?t enjoy cooking much, the thought of trying to satisfy my cravings at home just hadn?t entered my head. But...

Sennheiser PX200 - Top quality sound on a budget

Advantages: Sparkling sound quality, Easy to carry.
Disadvantages: Very slight lack of deep bass

...I listen to music a lot, and some of the time it?s convenient to use headphones. I?m not a great fan of in-ear phones, just from a comfort point of view. So if I?m out and about small on-the-ear style phones are the best compromise. These Sennheiser PX200 headphones also fold up and fit into a carry case, about the same size a glasses case. So they'll easily fit in a pocket or bag. First impressions are good. The headphones are constructed around a hinged, thin steel strip, which flexes to give some tension on the pads. Two areas on the underside are softly padded. The earcups are round, about 45mm in diameter, so sit on, rather than over the ears. A shortish (1.2m) lead is terminated with a 3.5mm stereo jack plug. This is ideal for portable players or close work like computers or in flight. Comfort is very good with only slight...

  Sharm el Shiekh - Dive in

Advantages: Weather, diving, friendliness, hotel stds and price
Disadvantages: Adjusting to Arab culture and being pestered

...I have recently returned from Naama Bay in Sharm el Shiekh which could possibly be the best value dive resort in the world. This review is actually of Naama Bay the area itself and what it has to offer. I must quantify this by stating that the diving/snorkelling is my own personal experience. Personally I could never just go and lie on a beach for more than an hour or two (and 2 hours would need a very very good book!). The 'bucket and spade brigade' info is feedback from friends I have recommended this resort to. I have been there 13 times and plan to continue going back. I know, there are many people (including myself before I went there) who cannot imagine going back to the same resort but Naama Bay really is different.............................. Honest (and I don't mean cause it's been bombed! but more on the terrorist...

El Macho, Bravo

Advantages: Good location. Lively atmosphere Authentic
Disadvantages: Gets busy

...The El Macho Mexican Restuarant is located in Hope Street,the appropriately named street that separates the two Cathedrals in Liverpool. It is a very convenient location -not far from the city centre or the University.I have been to El Macho's twice and must say I liked the simple rustic decor,the friendly,exuberant service, the food and the drinks. For the quality of the food on offer,it is also reasonably priced.It is a lively spot and gets very busy so it is probably wise to book a table.I have been told that Sir Paul McCartney, when he is in town ,likes to visit this little corner of Mexico but he wasnt there when I was. They have a good range of Mexican starters with the likes of nachos, chillis, beans and dips while among the entrees are seafood dishes and their famous Mexican Skillet which comprises charcoal grilled...

Sharm El Sheikh - Paradise?

Advantages: The weather, the people, the scenery, the hotel, the sea, the fish....
Disadvantages: Can get very hot in the summer period!

...On Thursday May 26th 2005, myself, my mum, my dad and my brother went on a family holiday to Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. It was the first time we had been abroad for 4 years, the first time we had been on a plane for 4 years, the first time we had been to Africa - ever. All my life I had dreamed of going to Egypt, mainly Cairo to see the Pyramids, as I had always wanted to become an archaeologist. I collected souveneirs from Museums and shops relating to Ancient Egypt, an amazing period in the worlds history filled with grand designs, architecture and beliefs. I collected a childrens magazine on Ancient Egypt and read up about the era in books both at home and at school. I was fascinated by everything I read and was determined from then on to visit the Great Pyramids at Giza, one seventh of the wonders of the Ancient World...
