...The Wild Water Park is a must for anyone that is travelling with children. It is great for big kids (adults also). The park is just 20 minutes in from the city centre, it is 12 acres of rides and attractions. In total there are 23 rides catering for the needs of kids, adults and families. For the guests of the Burj Al Arab and Jumeira Beach hotels there is an access within the hotels giving them the opportunity to enjoy Wild Wadi any time they want. For the kids there are mini aqua parks which they can have fun in and enjoy without their parents.

...I visited the Sol El Mouradi in April 2005. My first holiday with my partner, I was really looking forward to it and it did not disappoint! ARRIVAL Talk about a spectacular lobby! I had seen pictures on the internet, but didn't think it would really look that grand. But it did!

...We flew with Kathargo Airlines from Edinburgh to Monastir. The flight time is about 3 and a half hours. The airline was very basic with no in flight entertainment and the usual meals were served. The aircraft was obviuosly quite old with shabby seats and trays that didn't work or were broken. If on a Boeing 737 then don't sit near the centre of the plane (seat 12 to 14) as the legroom is quite ridiculous! On Arrival at Monastir be prepared for long queues whilst you go through immigration. After collecting your baggage don't worry about finding your coach, as there'll be a willing porter ready to whisk you and your luggage off to the desired coach park. The journey to Port El Kantaoui takes about 1 hour taking into account the stops at various Hotels along the way. We stayed at the Vincci Hotel. On Arrival we were shown straight... Read review
