Sharm El Sheik is one of Egypt tours most popular tourist destinations. It is located in the south of the Sinai peninsula and is renowned for its white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and beautiful coral reefs. Sunbathing, swimming, and water sports are just a few of the things you can do in Sharm el Sheik.

From Sharm El Sheikh, take a comfortable, air-conditioned bus to explore Cairo day tours, where you’ll visit some of Egypt’s most iconic monuments, such as the Giza pyramids and Sphinx, on the Giza Plateau, and the Museum of Egyptian Antiquities in Tahrir Square. With an expert guide, you’ll learn about ancient Egyptian artifacts along the way.

The duration of your stay varies depending on what you plan to do in Egypt day tours and where you’d like to visit. For example, if you’re looking for a relaxing beach getaway and want to take advantage of all the resort’s amenities, you can expect to spend 3 to 4 days in Sharm El Sheikh.

If you're planning for Sharm El Sheikh day tours, spring or fall is the best time to go. The average temperature is around 25°C which is pretty warm, but not too hot or humid either. If you're a fan of swimming, you won't be disappointed by the Red Sea. The waters get a bit calmer in the summer, but they stay warm all year round.

Na’ama Bay is a stunning tourist area located just 3 miles offshore from Sharm el Maya. It’s known for its stunning beach, but it's also home to some of the city's best hotels, bars, and restaurants.

Travel has helped us to understand the meaning of life and it has helped us become better people. Each time we travel, we see the world with new eyes.

Absolutely mind blowing. A definite must see. We flew from Aswan after I contact them, as I did not want to sit in car for hours with my 10-year-old daughter. Just so much history and ancient love. You cannot miss this one thing if you are in Cairo. The rocks are just HUGE, so special.

I recently traveled with my wife, daughter, son in law and two grandsons (ages 4 and 2). We had a private tour experience. From the moment we landed at the airport on our arrival to the day we left we were treated with the utmost care and attention

Our trip to was wonderful. The accommodations and travel was seamlessly arranged by customer service rep, Mona, and we visited so many of the famous Egyptian antiquities. I would not have done the trip without the very knowledgeable guides, Ashraf and Mamdouh
