Sharm El Sheikh Tours: reefs, Sinai and beyond

Sharm does it all — reef, desert and history — and Misk Tours makes every moment seamless.

What are the best Sharm El Sheikh tours?

For first-timers, snorkeling at Ras Mohammed National Park ($40) or the Desert Super Safari ($30) are the most popular picks. If you have extra time, the Cairo day trip by flight ($290) is the most memorable excursion — board a morning flight, stand before the Pyramids of Giza and be back at your hotel by sunset.

Snorkeling and diving in Sharm El Sheikh

Sharm sits where the Gulf of Suez and the Gulf of Aqaba collide, with world-class coral reefs a short boat ride away. Choose Ras Mohammed ($40), the White Island and Ras Mohammed ($45), Tiran Island by boat ($50), or a diving trip at Ras Mohamed or Tiran ($100). For families with young children, the glass boat ($20) or semi-submarine ($40) shows the reef without getting wet.

Sinai desert and day trips

Race a quad bike across the Sinai dunes at golden hour ($30), or go further: Mount Sinai and St Catherine's Monastery ($50), St Catherine and Dahab ($50), or the legendary Blue Hole and Dahab ($40). Planning something bigger? See our Egypt tour packages.

Ask A Travel Expert
What is the best tour to book in Sharm El Sheikh?

For first-timers, snorkeling at Ras Mohammed National Park or the Desert Super Safari are the most popular picks. If you have extra time, the Cairo day trip by flight is the most memorable excursion available. For families with young children, the Glass Boat Trip or Semi-Submarine are ideal.

Do I need to know how to swim for snorkeling tours?

Basic swimming ability is recommended for snorkeling excursions. However, life jackets are always provided, and guides support non-swimmers. The Glass Boat Trip and Semi-Submarine tour are perfect alternatives for those who prefer to stay dry.

How far in advance should I book Sharm El Sheikh tours?

We recommend booking at least 24–48 hours in advance to secure your preferred date and time slot. During peak season (October–April and major holidays), popular tours like the Cairo flight trip and Ras Mohammed diving can fill up quickly.

Is Sharm El Sheikh safe for tourists?

Yes. Sharm El Sheikh is one of Egypt's most tourist-friendly destinations, with a dedicated tourist police presence and well-developed infrastructure. Millions of visitors enjoy safe, trouble-free holidays there every year.

What is included in Sharm El Sheikh tour prices?

Most tours include hotel pick-up and drop-off, a licensed English-speaking guide, all necessary equipment (snorkel gear, wetsuits, quad bikes, etc.), entrance fees where applicable, and meals as specified. There are no hidden shopping stops.

Can I combine multiple Sharm El Sheikh tours?

Absolutely. Many visitors combine a morning snorkeling trip with an evening desert safari. Contact our team to build a bespoke multi-day itinerary that makes the most of your time in Sharm El Sheikh.

What is Ras Mohammed National Park?

Ras Mohammed National Park is Egypt's first marine protected area, established in 1983. Located 20 km south of Sharm El Sheikh, it protects over 220 species of coral and more than 1,000 fish species. It is widely considered one of the world's finest snorkeling and diving destinations.
