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.

Full on day

A full on day 12 hours in total with plenty of activities. A lot of travelling to the locations the vehicle we travelled in was ok but not so comfortable. Whilst snorkelling be aware of the extra costs to hire any equipment even if you have snorkels you are pressured to hire wet suits flippers and life vests. The coloured canyon was great the Atv and camel rides were ok and the snorkelling very congested

Wonderful experience, this is a must

I don’t think I could have asked for a more perfect tour. We rode camels, then atv, went snorkeling along an amazing reef, had lunch, a sand jeep ride and a tour through the canyon. Ahmed was so kind and multi languages, he was a wonderful guide and I am very happy with the day. This has got to be the best tour I have ever done in any country

⭐⭐ ⭐ overpromised and underdelivered

Felt overpromised and underdelivered — crowded and rushed. For the future, it would also benefit from having a different guide.

Amazing day in the desert - bring electrolytes

Fabulous experience! They deliver on everything they promise in their booking, with multiple stops and things to experience! We loved the Canyon, the jeep tour was amazing to do with the sea as the background, lunch was good and the Blue Hole was such an amazing snorkeling stop! Felt like one in a lifetime experience!! But definitely bring some electrolytes and plenty of fluids - my partner felt a bit ill on the day, and the exposure to sun didn't help, but the electrolytes water saved him and managed to make the most of the experience!

Great day out

Very good long day out we were out over 12 hours in total so be prepared to buy water and plenty of sun cream Also we had to pay for snorkelling equipment which we never knew about and they only accept cash ! 1500egypt pounds The only downside to the day was seeing all the camel carcasses in the desert near the TVs and camel rides We have both agreed not to support camel/horse rides anymore due to seeing how they are treated but this is not the tour operators fault Sad to see young children begging everywhere I only wish I had more bits to give them ! Crisps and drinks they like But overall a very good day out the snorkelling was amazing I’d highly recommend this trip while in Sharm el sheik The safari drive across the desert was amazing 🤩

No explanation in French. Regarding the bottle of water offered, finally, it is sold. Regarding snorkeling equipment, to provide per person 5 euros for the lifejacket and if you own your equipment up to 15 euros per person if no equipment. Regarding the visit of the canyon, no explanation during the visit, only devoted to shooting photos for sale.

Great tour

An unforgettable adventure that perfectly blends desert and sea! The canyon was absolutely breathtaking — a surreal landscape of colorful rock formations that felt like stepping onto another planet. The camel ride was a unique and relaxing way to take in the scenery, and the guides made the experience both fun and authentic. After exploring the canyon, we headed to the coast for snorkeling, which was the perfect contrast — vibrant coral reefs, crystal-clear water, and so much marine life! The entire tour was well-organized, with friendly staff and great attention to safety and comfort. A must-do in Sharm El Sheikh if you’re looking for adventure, nature, and a taste of local culture all in one day.
