Reefs, desert & Mount Sinai
Sharm El Sheikh sits between some of the best reefs in the Red Sea and the mountains of South Sinai, so the trips from here are among the most varied in Egypt. From your hotel you can snorkel the coral walls of Ras Mohammed National Park and White Island, ride a quad bike through the Sinai desert to a Bedouin dinner under the stars, or climb Mount Sinai at night to watch the sunrise from the summit.
Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza work as a long day trip by road or a shorter one by plane, and Luxor is reachable by air. Across the gulf, Petra in Jordan is a full day by ferry. On this page you will find all our Sharm El Sheikh tours in one place, sorted by type: sea and snorkeling trips, desert safaris, Mount Sinai, historical tours to Cairo and Luxor, and private trips.

Short answers from our team.
Most guests start with a boat trip to Ras Mohammed National Park and White Island, the best-known snorkeling in the area. For the desert, a quad or buggy safari that ends at a Bedouin camp. If you can handle a night without sleep, the Mount Sinai sunrise climb is the trip many people remember most. With more time, Cairo or Petra in Jordan make a long but rewarding day.

Prices depend on the trip. These are our starting prices per adult:
Hotel pickup in Sharm El Sheikh is included in the price, and you pay on the day of the trip.
Yes, but both are long days. Cairo is about 500 km away, so the road trip leaves very early and returns late at night; the trip by plane saves most of the driving. Petra means a drive to the port, a ferry across the Gulf of Aqaba and a drive on to Petra in Jordan, so you need your passport with you. See all Cairo tours and Petra tours from Sharm El Sheikh.
Spend at least one day on the water at Ras Mohammed, where the reef drops straight into deep blue water and the fish come right up to you. See the Sinai mountains at least once, either on a desert safari at sunset or from the top of Mount Sinai at sunrise. And keep an evening free for a walk through Naama Bay or the Old Market, which costs nothing. See our snorkeling trips in Sharm El Sheikh.
Kids usually love the semi-submarine and the glass boat, because they see the reef without getting wet. The dolphin show is another easy outing for small children. Ras Mohammed by boat works for families with children who are comfortable in the water. The night climb of Mount Sinai and the Cairo trip are better for older kids. See our submarine and glass boat trips and dolphin trips.
