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.

New Experiences

Lots of new experiences! The tour guides were very friendly and helpful, the lead guide even let me borrow his shoes when I was struggling in my sandals in the Colored Canyon. Snorkeling was incredible, great coral and bright colored fish.

Interesting

Interesting tour, good guide, somewhat chaotic at times and with some unnecessary parts (shopping at the market)

Fantastic experience.

An absolutely fantastic experience! The snorkeling at the Blue Hole was beautiful, and the Bedouin lunch was exceptional. We also enjoyed some shopping in Dahab city. But the highlight of the entire day for me was the jeep safari that took us all the way to the Colored Canyon — a magical place where time truly feels like it has stopped. Thank you, Mohamed, for your professionalism and expertise. Highly recommended! 🌟

Not worth time and money

We travel as a couple and like authentic local and fun experiences. We tried to make the most of it, but this was a tourist scam. Guide was all talk, but delivered very little. All day is just a big rush, we rode camels on a overcrowded, poop smelling beach and camels were in very poor condition. The quadbike was good and colour canyon very nice. But you don't have a guide that would explain things or be with you literally anywhere. You get zero new knowledge, or facts about culture or history. The worst of all was the blue hole trip, you are basically forced to rent the swimsuit, snorkling goggles and flippers for 12€ (the price just changes all the time) and you really really don't need any of it. The "guide" will say that you need it cuz the water is cold, you can get cut on corals.... but water is warm and snorkling mask is just useless cuz corals in the blue hole are all dead and there is nothing to see. Guide was also promising to go with us and explain everything and show us how to snorkel for those who haven't done it before. But right before leaving for the blue hole from the lunch site he directed us towards a car with a driver who doesn't speak english who took us there, literally dumped us on the beach and left us alone. Also in Dahab you will go only to an overpriced tourist mall and i suggest you if you do decide to go on this tour (and i advice you not to) when coming to Dahab just go your own way through the city to see locals, authentic cheaper shops and how people really live.

Super wycieczka

Świetna wycieczka, Mohamed jest super! Wszystko przebiegło sprawnie i bez problemów. Tylko uwaga, trochę naciągają na sprzęt do snorkelingu ;)
