Great Experience
Great experience and had a great time learning the history of where I was and significance of it all. Please note that there’s a fair amount of climbing involved so bring comfortable shoes.

Things to do in Sharm El Sheikh
Sharm El Sheikh: Colored Canyon Jeep Tour with Blue Hole & Dahab
See all 41 photos
Overview
Discover two of the Sinai Peninsula's most spectacular sights in one day trip from Sharm El Sheikh — the colorful Colored Canyon and the legendary Blue Hole. After hotel pickup in an air-conditioned vehicle, drive to the coastal town of Dahab for a relaxed camel ride along the shore, with an optional quad bike ride for extra adventure. Then snorkel the crystal-clear waters of Blue Hole National Park, gliding over vivid coral reefs and Red Sea marine life (for safety, snorkeling is in the protected park area beside the Blue Hole). Enjoy a buffet lunch by the sea, then ride a 4x4 jeep into the desert to the Colored Canyon — a sandstone gorge glowing in yellow, red, purple, and gold. On the way back, browse Dahab's markets for handmade souvenirs before a comfortable return drive. Camel ride, snorkeling, desert canyon, beachside lunch, and free hotel transfers — the easiest, best-organized way to see Sinai's desert and sea in one day.

Disappointed trip
Disappointed that email detailing the pick up time was sent at 00:40 am, informing us that we were to be picked up 45 minutes earlier than originally planned. Jeep safari lasted 10 mins Snorkelling gear cost $20 to hire (rather expensive) Trip ended up more expensive than expected, activities not that fantastic.

Excited Experience
The trip was amazing, we specially thanks to our guide Muhammed and other staff. It was a wonderful activity, camel ride and canyon tour was unforgettable. Snorkeling in blue hole reserve area was magnificent.

Worth the money, priceless experience
We really liked the experience. The canion, the snorkeling and the view vere priceless. Good to know to have enough cash with yourself, the snorkeling equipment are not included and they only take cash. The photographers were really committed and did a great job. It is hot, keep water and a scarf with because you never know. I liked the organisation though it felt a little bit rushed somentimes. But the tour still lasted more than described.

A good day in the desert
It was all good. First we went to quad ride, then camel ride and snorkeling. After the Blue Hole we had dinner and went to the canyon. It was a good day. Thanks guys!

Interesting day
We didn't go to the blue hole, but they took us to a very beautiful place nearby, full of corals. The visit to the canyon is also worth it. Friendly and safety-conscious guides. We do not visit the city of Dabah but only a shopping center

It is always great having a photographer around so you don’t have to worry about taking your phone out every second!
Everything was great! The guides were amazing, great views and great snorkeling. This was an experience to remember. Definitely will come back

Don't fall for this trap
The trip is not worth it: badly organized (I wrote to 2 different numbers the day before the trip to have someone tell me at what time they'd pickus up and if they needed ant info...,and 5 min before the meeting a 3rd nber called to ask to have paper copies of all our documents-.-) and you will not see most of what you expect! Blue hole? Not seen. You're forced to rent additional snorkelink stuff at absurd prices (we spent 50€ in 3 even though we brought our own snorkeling shoes and masks) and then you'll have only 15min in the water close to the reef. You could be at any beach in Sharm, you will never see the blue hole! Of course these costs are extra and never mentioned before the trip... Then you'll eat a small piece of burnt chicken without cutlery and no water (you'll need to pay extra 2€ to have a bottle of water. They don't give you any the whole day... and you'll need it in the desert). If you need to pee... that's another € per person. After this, you'll have 5 min on camels...for which they'll try to convince you to buy scarfs @.@ (obv NOT useful, buy only if you like them and would have wanted them regardless). After this you WON'T see Dahab, you'll see 2 ugly small shops with overpriced merchandise. The only nice thing is the hike in the canyon at the end. Very disappointing. I also found the main guide rude and aggressive. I would not purchase again.
