Private shore excursions from Sharm El Sheikh port, with pickup at the cruise exit. A quad bike safari with a Bedouin lunch starts at $55, and a 4×4 day to the Colored Canyon at $80 per person.
Sharm El Sheikh shore excursions are private trips from the cruise port at the southern tip of the Sinai. The desert starts a short drive from the port, so a 5-hour quad bike safari to a Bedouin village fits any port day. With a full day, a 4×4 trip to the Colored Canyon near Nuweiba shows you the Sinai’s red and gold rock walls.
Your guide waits at the exit door with your name on a sign.
A safety briefing, helmets and a short test drive before you head out.

Everything was planned and executed from arrival to departure.
An amazing experience, only made better by our fantastic guide Manal. She really helped us understand the true history of Egypt.
I sent an outline of my plans. Soon I received a ready-made plan that fully met our expectations.
Not in a day by road. Cairo is about 500 km away, around six hours each way. From Sharm, choose the desert safari or the Colored Canyon instead, or see the Pyramids from Alexandria or Port Said.
About five hours from the port and back, including the ride, the Bedouin village, a camel ride, a barbecue lunch and a folk show. It starts at $55 per person.
Yes. You get a safety briefing and a test drive first, and the guide leads at a steady pace. Tell us the ages of any children when you book so we can plan the right setup.
About two and a half hours each way by 4×4, near Nuweiba. The full trip takes about 8 hours with lunch and starts at $80 per person.
Closed shoes, sunglasses, a hat and a light scarf against the dust, plus sunscreen and a little cash for tips.
Yes. We plan every excursion to have you back at the port at least two hours before departure, and a backup vehicle stays on standby on the long routes. If we ever miss that, Egypt Day Tours takes full responsibility and pays for your hotel and your flight to the ship’s next port of call.
No separate visa is needed. Your cruise line provides the Egypt visa or landing permit for every passenger, so you simply step off the ship and meet your guide.
