Sharm El Sheikh Tours and Excursions

Sharm El Sheikh Tours are typically day tours that can be enjoyed on their own, or they can be added to any one of our other Egypt tour packages, including any of our Nile cruise holidays. They have been designed to offer visitors a perfect and very affordable blend of adventure and relaxation. Relax on the beach; go diving at some of the world’s finest dive sites; explore ancient attractions, or go trekking in the mighty Sahara Desert where you can dine and mingle with local Bedouine, and even camp out under the stars.

Sharm El Sheikh Tours

If you are looking through Egypt tours then you will probably come across the destination of Sharm El Sheikh. Sharm El Sheikh is a popular seaport and resort town located at the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula. It is most popular with divers and recreational tourists, in contrast to the history buffs who love Cairo and Luxor.

However, that’s not to say that there isn’t plenty to see in Sharm El Sheikh for everyone.

Excursions In and Around Sharm El Sheikh?

What is there to see and do on Sharm El Sheikh excursions? Firstly, plan to visit the nearby desert areas such as Bedouins, the Coloured Canyon and off to Mount Sinai and St. Catherine’s Monastery.

You have the option of taking short desert tours to the areas or private tours where you travel for a few days by way of camel. Seeing these areas lets you walk through hidden valleys, rest at beautiful oases and sleep under the breathtaking Egyptian sky.

There is much to do on Sharm El Sheikh Egypt day tours, including visiting the Sinai Peninsula and exploring the mountains in this desert range. If you see the Na’ama Bay on your luxury tours then remember this is the best part of town for modern dining and entertainment.

Sharm El Sheikh Diving Trips

The best feature of Sharm El Sheikh excursions is the diving accommodations. In fact, most tourists would tell you it’s the #1 reason to travel to the area. Divers can thoroughly enjoy the warm and refreshing waters of the Red Sea and use the reeds of Tiran and Ras Mohammed, two of the best reviewed diving spots in the entire world.

Since this area is where the current of the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Gulf of Suez, there is a tremendous amount of marine activity here, from active fish to barracudas, sharks and murrays. Some tourists state that it’s a far better idea to book a diving safari for private tours rather than wrestling with the crowds.

When visiting Sharm El Sheikh scuba diving is a must.

Other Sharm El Sheikh Day Tours

You can also look forward to other physical activity such as horse riding (such as at the Stables at Sofitel Hotel) parasailing, and camel trekking. One of our most popular Sharm tours even includes a day trip to the magnificent Lost City of Petra in Jordan. This is ideal for people who would love to visit this breathtaking site but don’t have the time or budget to book one of our more extensive Egypt and Jordan tours.

The best location for camel trekking is the Sinai desert as these desert tours let you ride of one of the Sinai’s specially bred camels. The Sinai people will even cook you a homemade meal, so Sharm El Sheikh is definitely the royal treatment.

Make sure Sharm El Sheikh tours are included in your Egypt tour package.
