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.

Blue hole and Canyon not to be missed!

The Blue Hole and Red Canyon hike was undoubtedly one of the best experiences in Sharm El Sheikh and I highly recommend it. The two main activities are truly spectacular: the Blue Hole offers extraordinary diving and snorkeling, with a coral reef full of colors and marine life. It is a unique place, perfect both for those who love to dive and for those who prefer to observe the seabed with mask and snorkel. The Red Canyon is also wonderful: walking among its rock formations is fascinating and the Jeep ride to it makes the experience even more fun and adventurous. Additional activities such as a short camel ride and a Quad bike ride, both just a few minutes long, were also included during the day, as well as lunch with the Bedouins and a visit to the Dahab market. These activities make the excursion complete and also suitable for children, especially since the camel ride is short and therefore also ideal for those who may have a little fear. Special thanks go to the guide Ahmed, who was with us throughout the day: always available, attentive and professional. He accompanied us underwater, showed the reef, made videos during the dive and supported us at all times. Overall, a very well organized experience and absolutely recommended.

Extremely Disappointed!!

This tour is falsely advertised. It ended being 12 hours long. We were picked up at 7:30am and dropped off at 7:30pm. They were late and disorganised. We spent 2 hours travelling to the Coloured Canyon and went on a 10 minute Jeep Tour to the start of the Canyon which meant we had to hike up and down the Canyon for about 40 minutes. The hike was difficult with alot of high, rocky, and uneven pathways. The route was not for the average person. We then went shopping to one store selling perfume which became another 40 minute pitstop. Finally arrived at the beach. The ATV tour lasted 15 minutes and the camel ride was 10 minutes. The snorkeling was 1 hour and ended being extremely long and slow paced from changing and hiring the gear which was a separate cost to completing the snorkeling tour. "Lunch" was only served at 4pm and was extremely cold We did not receive the complementary bottle of water per guest as stated on the tickets. We were also not informed that our passports were required to enter the national parks. Overall extremely long and tiring. Spent most of the tour on a bus with 20 other people driving to different locations and ended up not being worth the money at all. Highly not recommended this travel company and tour.

The experience itself...

The experience itself, the only flaw is the constant asking for tips, the constant trying to get you to spend money in places affiliated with them. They even ask you 1 euro to use the bathrooms (if I can call it that). They had secured a bottle of water to the meal was not given so you were forced to buy them to drink, absurd prices, drinks cost more than any Italian place with the difference that you were sitting on the floor, no services etc .. The trip itself very nice!

Day full of activities’

Activity-packed excursion, snorkeling, camel ride, quad bike ride, jeep safaris. The guide is available trying to involve everyone. The places visited are many details, the blue hole is a wonder with a rich underwater life. The weather was not the best but they still guaranteed all the experiences.

Lovely adventure tour.

Wonderful well organized tour, exceeded my expectations. It was an adventure packed day. Great value, comes with lunch. Mohammed is a great, very gracious guide. He stayed with us during snorkeling to make sure we are safe and enjoy. I also appreciate that there was a photographer on hand who took the most amazing pics of me. Lol. This means a lot to me as I am traveling solo. The charge for the pics is $10 USD. So worth it. The whole trip was worth the money. Thank you.

Megvoltunk elégedve. Ez a program mennyiség szerintünk sok. Túl sok program van egybe zsúfolva. A Color kanyon csodálatos volt.

Coloured Canyon 2025

Great experience, included the quad biking and camel ride before heading to the canyon. Start at 8am and finish around 4:30pm. Mohammad was a great host and an honest man, made the experience easy.
