In just one day do everything is the ideal excursion! - 5 stars! The tour to the Colored Canyon was an amazing experience! The guides were simply fantastic, they accompanied us with serenity and professionalism all day, explaining every detail and making us feel at ease. We snorkeled in crystal clear waters along the reef, a relaxing camel ride through the desert and an exciting quad bike adventure! And the final touch was Fabrizio's photo shoot, which captured us in beautiful and unforgettable moments. The company was great and we had a really memorable day. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to discover the beauty of the Colored Canyon!" 😊👍📸 Special thanks to Osama guide of extreme precision and professionalism!

A fantastic Egyptian experience! 🐪🪸🇪🇬 - This trip was booked through our hotel, Concorde Sport, and we paid £40 each.
This is a full day out and was packed with adventures, albeit a lot of time on the minibus in between, but a great way to view the landscape!
We were offered, and took up, a camel ride, quad bikes, jeep safari to the coloured canyon, Dahab & snorkeling, as well as lunch in a Bedouin tent!
Our guide was excellent and fluent in English & Russian, explaining & detailing everything for us. The photographer was also lovely and swam with us for photos!
There were loo breaks which also involved feeding baby goats & lots of lovely Bedouin children begging for anything & trying to sell us their bracelets.
This trip is not for the faint-hearted, it is hot (in April!), dusty, impersonal & challenging and the most wonderful experience if you want to embrace Egypt!
Camel riding is a must, don't be alarmed when you're stripping down to your swimwear with mixed groups in your section of an open tent, be aware that there is no health & safety and risk assessments are unheard of, and enjoy every moment, it's hilarious 😄
Recommendations:
Bring water, cash, snorkeling gear if you have (otherwise you have to pay to hire it, around US$10), dry swimwear (or stay damp), swim shoes as it's very rocky getting in/out, underwater camera if you have, trainers (optional), towels & packed lunch if your hotel provides. This is very much appreciated by the goats & the children!! Do bring sweets or fruit for the kids if you'd like to, they love it.
I walked the Canyon bare foot as it was easier than flipflops, but you do have to climb down, it will get hotter and the guide did show us the way but trainers are a good idea! I also clambered over the rocks getting in/out of the sea which was painful, swim shoes are much better! But the coral was spectacular and worth it!
Everything on this day trip was super, we loved it. On the way back, we passed a taxi where the driver was asleep at the wheel, still driving! Our driver honked to wake him, we pulled over with him, and our tour guide hopped in the taxi to drive it back to the park border for him. It was the wonderful Egyptian kindness & trust, just to round off the wonderful Egyptian experience, thank you!

Unique Day Trip with an Unmissable Blue Hole Experience - This tour offers a great mix of desert scenery and underwater beauty. Riding quad bikes through the Sinai landscape was a fun and energetic start to the day, but the real highlight was the Blue Hole.
Snorkeling there is truly unforgettable — crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral, and a dramatic drop-off. Among the famous Blue Holes around the world, Egypt's is one of the most accessible, making it a rare opportunity for travelers who aren’t professional divers.
A must-do if you’re in Sharm El Sheikh and looking for something beyond the usual resort activities.

Full jam packed day. Slight issues - The good:
- Snorkelling was the best part of the trip. Our swimming guide was friendly, professional and kind. We felt he was the most pleasant and made the experience comfortable and worthwhile. He also took pictures of us throughout the day. (paid an additional fee to get them sent to us digital)
- full jam packed day - with market, snorkelling, lunch, camel ride, ATV ride, jeep ride, small hike in the canyon tours all worth the price.
The bad:
-No toilet entry where meal was given without being forced to pay (this is inhumane). If you didn't have cash how would you have used the toilet? Forced to find a bush or the sea?
- We were aware that there was going to be additional costs for snorkelling. However, pricing of snorkelling equipment should be listed somewhere (we had no idea of what everything cost) it was an estimate if we paid more or less than we should have, because there was no pricing in sight. It would have been helpful to tell us what was absolutely necessary before trip, instead we were told on the bus.
- a quick demonstration or explanation on how to use the snorkelling equipment (breathing technique etc or how to swim against the waves (relaxed /less arms more legs alone). None of this was shown it was basically just figure it out.
- Activity schedule with what and how long we do each thing would've been nice.
-Often felt rushed (the camel ride and market could've been taken out to save time). In the market it felt overpriced and unnecessary. They also charged you for card transactions so make sure if you want to buy anything you set yourself a reasonable budget with cash.
-providing water would've been a nice extra / we would've paid a bit extra to have these on demand in the van.
Tips- bring plenty of water and snacks, bring a large cotton scarf for ATV ride, research how to snorkel or what equipment is absolutely needed for snorkelling. I would honestly say you only needed a life jacket, the flippers and the goggles. Bring flip flops or waterproof shoes for walking to the shore, wear comfortable sneakers or bring for them for hiking, also wear your bathing suit under your clothes as changing room facilities you could only use for a fee.

Good but needs much improvement - We had an authentic and friendly tour guide. The overall cost was really cost effective without any of the additional costs.
However there were unclean and unkempt bathrooms, which looked unsanitary as well with water everywhere- they also charged a fee to use.
Children were all around hounding us while eating our lunch. We also felt forced to buy a scarf for the ATV ride. It should be stipulated in the trip details before on what items you will need to bring such as a scarf or comfortable sneakers. Happy and felt secure with security convey who was discrete but held a reassuring presence. In general we felt pressure in buying market goods. We were there for quite a while, so if you were not buying anything it was time wasted. I've had my fair share of market stalls experiences. But it is tiring to constantly be hounded by people to buy their stuff and up sale using dollars/euros instead of Egyptian pounds. Be aware about these market tourist traps who try their best to sell you things you don't need. If you know 100% that you don't want to buy anything, just avoid making contact with anyone. Stand or sit aside somewhere until it is done.

To avoid go there on your own. Catch tourist! - I don’t know which agency is supposed to represent this activity , but I imagine the path is the same all the time.
So first, they pick you up from your hotel, personally I spent an hour collecting all the other tourists to finally leave. Arrived at the Blue hole we have a camel visit of 5 minutes chrono it was really lame, we made a round on a stone square without any interest, do not take it it is useless. Others went quad biking but it must have been useless. Then snorkelling I didn’t do it and luckily there is far too much wind , waves , currents to the point that one of the girls in my group picked up corals and came out bleeding!!
Then they say “souuk” , I thought we were going to do the souk of Dahab but nothing . The excursion is called Dahab but you won’t see anything about Dahab, the souk is 5 shops by the road without any interest with only made in china!! And the prices worse than a dubai or in Swiss!!!
Then you will go to the canyon, the canyon is beautiful but to get there you will take a very uncomfortable jeep I advise against for people with back pain. And the canyon tour is fast as the express. About 10 minutes you will have finished the canyon.
In summary do not book the excursion to Dahab , go there on your own you will thus keep your money and your time!!
