What to do and see in Red Sea and Sinai, Egypt: The Best Multi-day Tours

June 7, 2021 Chanda Heide

Traditional attitudes prevail in the historic Sinai region on Egypt's border with Israel. The triangular peninsula is divided from the rest of Egypt by the Suez Canal and the Red Sea. Craggy mountains, including 7500-foot Mount Sinai, plunge down to the waters of the Red Sea. Spectacular snorkeling and diving sites beckon from the Gulf of Aqaba to the east of the peninsula, particularly along the dramatic coastline of Na'ama Bay in Sharm el Sheikh. Camelback safaris offer distinctive desert excursions.

Mohammed and his driver.Haytem were amazing. we did the tour with 3 little kids on a blazing summers day. they were patient , made every effort to make us comfortable. tour guide Mohammed was a wealth of information and even answered the crazy questions from my 4 year old. I would ask for them both as team by name when next using the tour operator

We just came back from 7 day trip in Egypt and used Egypt Tour Portal. This was over a year in the making since the pandemic had put a stop on our trip. But we were able to finally go end of April 2021. I will be honest there were so road blocks with the planning of the trip and I know there were a lot of changes. I do have to say that towards the end of the planning of the trip the tour company, and Mohamad Zayed weren't willing to be as flexible as I would have hoped for. Furthermore, on the domestic flights that the company booked for us, they failed to check us in and communicating with tour guides that our flights had changed times. For example our flight departure from Aswan had changed by a few hours. Our tour guide didn't know and we got to the airport way early before the airport even opened. I asked the airline when the change was made and they said 2 days prior. This was extremely frustrating. Thus why my rating is a 4 and not a 5. I do appreciate their help in willing to accommodate us in the airport hotel in Cairo. Nonetheless, our tour guide, Omar Haridi in Luxor in Aswan made it worth it. Thank you Omar for all your help! You made our trip extra special with me and my husband awesome souvenir! I do recommend him for any of your Egypt travels. Thanks guys.

The driver and the tour guide were at our Airbnb 10 minutes earlier. The van was spacious and clean. The vibe was relaxed and positive since the beginning. Abdu, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and he showed proficiency not only in French but also in English. Alexandria is beautiful and the Mediterranean Sea is what crowns it. The Greco Roman catacombs, Pompey’s Pillar, the Citadel of Qaitbay, the restaurant, everything was delightful. At the end our driver even helped us find a suitcase in downtown Cairo. It was awesome!
