This private tour offers a perfect blend of modern city life and traditional Egyptian culture, giving you a true feel for Hurghada beyond its beaches. Unlike standard group tours, you’ll enjoy personalized attention from your expert local guide, who tailors the experience to your interests — whether that’s sightseeing, shopping, or photography.

You’ll explore both the vibrant marina with its elegant seaside charm and the authentic Old Town (El Dahar), where locals trade spices, crafts, and everyday goods in lively markets unchanged by time. Visiting the Grand Mosque and Coptic Church adds a deeper cultural dimension, revealing Hurghada’s unique religious and architectural harmony.

The tour also allows for flexibility — you can pause for photos, shop at your own pace, or enjoy a relaxing drink by the Red Sea. It’s a rich, immersive journey designed for travelers who want to connect with the real Hurghada, its people, and its stories — all in comfort and privacy.
