Enjoyable day
Seeing and swimming in the Red Sea was the highlight! Driver was on time from pickup to drop off. Great service! It’s winter when i visited so the resort is quiet. Really amazing time for peace and quiet.

Ahmed Hamdy, 10/10 tour guide
I would highly recommend this trip, the trip, our guide was Ahmed Hamdy who was very informative and helpful, and honestly just really understanding The drive itself was smooth with AC, it was a very spacious car, if you want to get out of the busy Cairo and just want to relax with no loud cars and somewhere just peaceful where you can sit and walk by the Red Sea ocean where it isn’t crowded at all then I recommend booking this on your last day of Cairo, so you can just sit back shut down those loud thoughts and have a good peaceful day, another thank you to Ahmed Hamdy

Deceived by photos
We were told there aren’t any beaches in Cario and the closest beach is over an hour away and it was nice. Our driver picked us up and asked if we made reservations for the beach. This website gave us 3 options and we chose the first to only have a driver we did not know we HAD to have a reservation to go in the beach. It was a bit confusing. After paying $85 dollars for just the drive we had to pay another $90 to enter the beach and lunch ( the driver was helpful in making the reservation paying for it and was refunded back once we got back to the hotel) . I believe they only took their cash? . The beach was NOTHING like the pictures. The sand was hard and had a lot of rocks and you would be taking a chance laying in it! The water was clear but not as clean as it looked before you entered. I would suggest you try the beaches further out about 3 hrs away they were also recommended and had a better look. Our driver name is Mahana , he was nice and generously made an extra stop. The problem was not him but the website communication.

Sokhna Day Trip
After spending a few days visiting Giza, Saqqara, Alexandria and Memphis in the basking Sun, we took a diversion from sight-seeing. We spent the day laying on the beach and swimming in Sokhna. Our driver, Mohamed, promptly picked us up at 8 AM and we were on our way. After approximately 2 hours we arrived at the beach resort. Mohamed got us set up with chairs on the beach under a comfortable beach umbrella with towels. He ensured that we were comfortable and he let us know where we could get him, in the event that we needed anything. He informed us that he would get us at 2 to escort us to the luncheon buffet. We literally had the beach to ourselves. There were maybe 4 other families( less than 20 people) on the beach. It was a perfect place to recharge our batteries. When it was 2 PM(1400 Hrs), Mohamed came to tell us that lunch was ready. The lunch was a scrumptious array of salads soups and main dishes of fish, lamb, and chicken. My wife really enjoyed the dessert buffet table and hot tea at the end of our meal. We went back to the beach (literally by opening the door we were already on the beach). We enjoyed a few more hours of swimming. At our agreed upon time of 4:30 we left the resort. What a fun day. We were in a nice and comfortable air conditioned car headed back to Cairo. Door to door service. We highly recommend.

Best beach break in Egypt!
This beach tour was the highlight of my trip! From the moment I was picked up, everything was smooth and well organized. My driver and guide Ahmed Hamdy was absolutely amazing—professional, friendly, and full of great local knowledge. They made the journey enjoyable and kept me engaged the entire time. The beach itself was breathtaking, with crystal clear water and soft, clean sand. I had plenty of time to relax, swim, and enjoy the scenery. A perfect day out—highly recommended!
