What to do and see in Taba, Red Sea and Sinai: The Best Sightseeing Tours

December 25, 2021 Sachiko Swiger

Taba, situated on the Red Sea's Gulf of Aqaba at the junction of Egypt and Israel, is a stone's throw from a truly impressive range of sites.  Excursions to nearby Castle Zaman provide a rare view of four countries simultaneously, and the Colored Canyon is an obstacle course ripe for exploration.  The Marriott Taba Heights Red Sea Resort awaits tourists following their day trips with its very own therapeutic Salt Cave, ideal for unwinding in luxury.

This was a brilliant tour - I didn’t realise it was private when I booked it so it was just myself and my partner with a guide and driver. Quad biking was amazing and so much fun with many awesome views! Our guide took sooo many videos and photos for us. Dinner was sensational with a view of the pyramids from the restaurant!! Sound of light show is good - the history stories they tell whilst the lights are playing is a little hard to follow but it was worth it to take the time to look at the pyramids which are beautiful with the lights. Would highly recommend this tour as long as you are adventurous

I booked a private tour to the pyramids to avoid all the hassle, and it was definitely worth it. The tour was prepaid by credit card and I found the price affordable. All my emails were promptly answered, too. I was picked up right on time by a driver and my guide, Nesma, and as traffic was light, the journey from central Cairo to the pyramids took some 20 minutes only. Nesma gave quick briefs at our stops and I had ample time to look around and take photos. She answered all the questions I had and did her best to accommodate my wishes. Her English was excellent. After the pyramids and the sphinx, we made a quick extra stop at a papyrus shop/factory, where they explained the making and history of papyrus. There was no pressure to buy anything, it was a genuine educational stop and an interesting one at that. I can warmly recommend Emotours. I found them reliable, punctual and knowledgeable.

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.
