How tourists are deceived in Turkey and Egypt

During holidays in Turkey and Egypt, tourists often fall into the tricks of guides. It can be “tempting” excursions, trips and so on. However, they can be avoided if you follow the basic rules.Tempting offers According to one tourist, when they arrive at the resort, they are informed of an allegedly mandatory meeting with a hotel guide. However, you can not go there, because tourists are lured there for additional excursions. Usually the guides have a portfolio with offers, and he announces the price himself. When vacationers agree, they pay money immediately. However, in fact, it remains a mystery how much the offer costs and how much the guide “earned” thanks to you.Excursions There are several tour options. For example, the guide offers a boat or hammam tour and charges money for just taking you there. However, sometimes you can look at the maps where they are located and go yourself for free. There are also free tours, but they remain only conditionally. The fact is that tourists are taken to shops and shopping centers. And there you can leave a lot of money instead of just relaxing by the sea.In addition, they offer large excursions, for example, to Istanbul, for which two days are sometimes allocated. However, given the travel time, tourists will not be able to see the city enough. In addition, for such excursions you need to pay a large amount of money. It is known that in some cities during the tour they are asked to pay extra money for breakfast, which was allegedly included in the price, or they offer some entertainment at a much higher price.At the same time, the tourist said that it is possible to book excursions that take a maximum of two hours to travel, in particular to ancient cities. Other trips should be rescheduled, because for two days you pay extra money, and those that you paid for the rest at the hotel and by the sea will not be returned to you and these days will “burn out”.

For the brave defense of Leiden during the Dutch war with Spain in 1574, the Prince of Orange gave the city permission to open a university. This university, one of the oldest in Europe, is perhaps the main value and attraction of the city.
