On our 1st visit to Sharm we flew home when the bombings occurred. When we checked into the hotel in Sharm we were told of the bombings in London!!

The security is very tight. There are road blocks everywhere and the cars are searched before they can enter the airports, borders and hotels. The President of Egypt has a home in Sharm as does Tony Blair.

I feel extremely safe in Sharm. We went to Dom Rep and we could not go outside of the resort as were we not safe. Holidaymakers on day trips were hijacked and robbed.

This is unheard of in resorts such as Sharm and Hurghada and the crime rate is extremely low.
