Top Hurghada Day Trips

Very good my wife has mobility issues but manged most of this trip she had been wanting to do this trip since she was a little girl the guide was good but some of the places were a bit difficult but having said that we had a very good day and would recommend it

An excellent day out. We were collected from our hotel at 4:30am by our lovely driver, Ahmed. A 4hr journey through the desert seemed to pass quickly in the air conditioned comfort of Ahmeds car. He drove excellently through the chaos of Egypts roads. Sometimes you overtake on the left, sometimes on the right and sometimes by barreling through the middle. Its completely baffling and I am glad I wasn't driving! We collected Professor Ahmed on the West Bank of Luxor and proceeded to the valley of the kings. Professor Ahmed was so informative and amusing and we both learned a lot, even though we are both familiar with this part of history. Prof Ahmed explained about each tomb we visited in detail. We paid extra to visit King Tut and Ramses and it was worth it. Once we had spent our time in the valley we were taken to an Alabaster workshop where manager Ahmed explained the traditional processes still used after all these years. We then visited the mortuary temple of Hatshepsut. This was a bucket list for me and it was the highlight of my day. We then made a brief stop at the colossi of Memnon and then it was off for lunch. It seemed to be a traditional Egyptian cafe and the food was good. The boat ride along the nile was cool and the owner did let me pilot it for a while which was great. It was not a traditional Feluca but it was a great experience nonetheless. The last stop was at Karnac temple and this was also fantastic. Having seen so many documentaries and then actually walking round, seeing it with your own eyes is priceless. Again, Professor Ahmed explained all to us before we entered. Be careful of the walk back through the market place as you exit Karnac as the shopkeepers here were particularly aggressive in their hounding for trade. We grabbed a quick drink and were ripped off for 10€ for 2 cans of iced tea but they need the money more than I do I guess. We then headed back to drop off Professor Ahmed and were then safely driven back to our Hotel. We arrived back in Hurghada at around 6pm. A long day but worth every penny and every minute. Thank you again to both Professor Ahmed and driver Ahmed.

We had an absolutely amazing experience and would highly recommend this trip! From the desert adventure to the Bedouin experience and dinner, the whole evening was fantastic, but the highlight for us was definitely the stargazing. ⭐🔭 A huge thank you to Mohamed El Arabi, who made the experience extra special. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly and passionate, and took the time to explain everything so clearly. My son is really interested in astronomy and was especially excited about the stargazing. Mohamed was brilliant with him, answering his questions and sharing his knowledge about the night sky. Seeing everything through the telescope was an experience my son will remember for a very long time. It was such a memorable family evening and one of the highlights of our holiday in Hurghada. Thank you, Mohamed, for making it so special for us. Definitely a 5-star experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
