Sharm El Sheikh Tours

Sharm El Sheikh Tours

If you are looking through Egypt tours then you will probably run 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.

Tours In and Around Sharm El Sheikh?

What is there to see and do on Sharm El Sheikh tours? 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.

Scuba Diving in Sharm El Sheikh

The best feature of Sharm El Sheikh tours 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 Activities

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.

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 on your best of Egypt tour package.
