The 10 Best Archaeology Tours in Red Sea and Sinai, Egypt

November 24, 2021 Frederic Celentano

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 had two magnificent days out with Shimiaa in the Valley of the Kings, Temple of Hatshepsut - and then in Karnak and Luxor Temple. Finished up with a felucca on the Nile. Shimiaa has great wit, is extremely energetic and knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease at once. She knows the area like the back of her hand and is steeped in Egyptology so can answer any question. In such an important and breathtaking place it is important to have a guide to match the magnitude of the sites - and Shimiaa is just that. Can't thank her enough for making our trip so memorable.

It was a great experience. They picked us up at 3:30 from our cruise ship docked on the east side of the river. Then we were taken to the takeoff site where we watched the preparation od the balloons. Flew over Hatshepsut temple, Valley of the Kings etc and stopped for the sunrise over thr Nile. We were floating at over 700 m above the ground. The flight took around 50 minutes. Then we were driven back to the ship. Great! Totally recommend!

ART SAFARI WAS THE WORST EXPERIENCE I’VE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. They charged me 70$ for 2 hours of driving in 40 degrees with absolutely not one drop of water. The quads are terrible the service is beyond bad and the guide dot not speak 5 words of English. Avoid this place at all costs. I’ve been on many safari’s but this is by faaaaaar the worst possible on this planet and any other planets. I keep googleing them but can’t find anything. I will fill the with bad reviews this is how bad they are AVOID THESE PEOPLE AT ALL COSTS

To travel all the way to Hurghada and not make a day trip to the ancient city of Luxor would be a shame. Early in the morning your driver will collect you in one of our air-conditioned cars for your journey to Luxor. First visit the West Bank and The Valley of the Kings one of Luxor's greatest attractions. Surrounded by stark barren landscape, this spectacular place is an ancient burial site housing over 60 Egyptian kings and pharaohs and it’s possible to go inside and see 3 of the tombs them while you’re there. Next a short ride to The Valley of the Queens, where the many wives of the Pharaohs were buried. This is also the burial place of Egypt's sole female Pharaoh Hatshepsut, whose mortuary temple you will visit, it is one of the sites most impressive architectural structures. We then stop to admire the Colossi of Memnon, two massive stone statues of the Pharaoh Amenhotep III. Time then to head over to the East Bank to see the breathtaking Karnak Temple in all its glory.

Inclusions: Lunch at a local restaurant (beverages not included), Private transportation, Qualified Egyptologist Guide, All Fees and Taxes

Perfect service again! Easy to communicate via WhatsApp, confirmation within minutes. Very professional, always on time, clean air condition cars with comfortable safe transfers. Price is competitive and service impeccable. We went on a City Tour, Downtown Hurghada, El Mina Mosque and Marina, driver and guide again excellent. We also received a message a couple of days before our departure transfer to confirm our pick up time with the drivers name and type of car. No hesitation in recommending to our family and friends - totally reliable and trustworthy.
