What our customers are saying about us

  • An amazing experience and only made better by our fantastic guide Manal, she was an amazing Egyptologist and really helped us to understand the true history of Egypt, not just ancient. The museum was great although you can’t see all of the exhibits at the moment due to the move to the new unopened museum

Frequently asked questions.

Is there anything to do in Sharm El Sheikh?

Absolutely—Sharm El Sheikh is a playground for sun-seekers, adventurers, and ocean lovers alike. From snorkeling at Ras Mohamed National Park to desert quad biking at sunset, every corner offers something exciting. You can relax on golden beaches, dive in crystal-clear reefs, visit ancient monasteries in the Sinai mountains, or dance the night away at beachfront clubs. Whether you’re into luxury, culture, or adrenaline—Sharm has it all.

What should I be careful of in Sharm El Sheikh?

While Sharm is generally safe and tourist-friendly, it’s wise to stay alert just like in any travel destination. Stick with reputable tour operators for excursions, don’t drink tap water, and always agree on taxi fares beforehand if they’re not metered. Sunburn sneaks up quickly in this climate, so pack strong sunscreen. Also, when exploring coral reefs, avoid touching marine life—both for your safety and the reef’s preservation.

Can you swim with dolphins in Sharm El Sheikh?

Yes, you can! Dolphin experiences are available at several marine parks in and around Sharm El Sheikh. These encounters often include the chance to swim, play, and even get a dolphin “kiss.” While it’s a magical experience, make sure to choose facilities that follow ethical animal welfare standards. Some boat trips may also offer dolphin-watching in the wild, which is a beautiful and responsible way to see these creatures.

Can you do a day trip from Sharm El Sheikh to the pyramids?

Yes, but be ready for a long adventure. Many travelers take a short domestic flight from Sharm to Cairo, which makes visiting the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum possible in just one day. It’s a whirlwind tour, but absolutely doable if you’re short on time. Private tours often include hotel transfers, flights, and guided visits—making the journey smooth and hassle-free.

How long should you spend in Sharm el Sheikh?

That depends on your travel style, but 4 to 6 days is ideal for a well-rounded experience. It gives you enough time to enjoy the beaches, take a Red Sea diving or snorkeling trip, go on a desert safari, and maybe even squeeze in a cultural tour or two. Want to totally unwind? Stretch your stay to a week or more and embrace the laid-back vibe that makes Sharm such a beloved escape.

Should I cover up in Sharm el Sheikh?

In resort areas and on the beach, swimwear and summer clothes are completely fine. But when you’re out in the city, visiting cultural sites, or exploring the Old Market, it’s respectful to dress modestly. Think lightweight clothes that cover your shoulders and knees. It’s not a strict rule, but blending in with local customs shows cultural awareness and earns you a friendlier welcome from locals.
