Shore excursions in Egypt

Egypt is one of the countries with different coastal beaches that tourists come to from all over the world. Egypt shore excursions are primarily located on the Red Sea or the Mediterranean Sea. Let’s take a quick tour of shore excursions in Egypt and Egyptian ports.

Mediterranean shore excursions

Alexandria, the bride of the Mediterranean, has a lot of Egypt shore excursions. This is due to its charming atmosphere and its numerous beaches, in addition to the Alexandria Corniche and the restaurants that line it.

We will mention to you the top-rated Alexandria port trips and attractions you should visit.

Swimming may be more difficult in the Mediterranean than in the Red Sea, but this does not prevent the charm of the beaches of Alexandria on our Egypt tours.

Al Mamoura Beach and Al Muntazah are among the best beaches that are suitable for swimming and are less crowded than Miami Beach and Stanley Beach.

You can also spend a day on Cleopatra Beach, which is famous for its boats. It is usually visited by tourists who rent boats and enjoy sailing. If you have enough free days on your vacation, you can visit Cairo.

As there is an abundance of Cairo day tours moving from Alexandria.

Port Said is also one of the governorates that lie on the Mediterranean, but it has a special place.

Lots of Port-Said shore excursions are done so that tourists can enjoy riding the ferry that crosses the Suez Canal with the sight of seagulls petting the passengers. Then you begin to discover the famous landmarks of Port Said.

Red Sea shore excursions

The Red Seashores are considered the best Egypt shore excursions as they provide the most popular diving sites in the world. The most popular destination to enjoy is Sharm Marina shore excursions, as it offers an abundance of beaches that have special diving spots, such as Ras Muhammad, Tiran, Sanafir, Napq, and many more shores that you will discover through Sharm El Sheikh day tours.

On the other hand, you can enjoy Hurghada day tours from Safaga. Safaga port is located on the Red Sea. Safaga is considered a pioneer in exporting phosphates in Egypt. In addition, Safaga port trips occupy important diving sites that tourists enjoy. It is also located near many attractions, such as Luxor day tours, from which you can discover Aswan, which is about 4 hours away. So, lots of tourists prefer to book packages from Egypt travel packages that include Luxor, Aswan, and Safaga or Hurghada.

If you’re in Cairo and need to visit a beach close to you, Vantage recommends El Sokhna port trips. You can snorkel and dive in El Ain El Sokhna, and you can also spend just one day there and return to Cairo in about an hour and a half.

  • What is the best time to visit Egypt?

    As per our experience and based on our guests’ reviews, the best time to visit Egypt is from October till April, as the weather during these months is more than perfect to explore the highlights of Cairo, cruising the Nile between Luxor and Aswan and spending few days on the beaches of the Red Sea cities such as Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh and Marsa Alam. Taking into consideration that December and January are the peak tourist months together with the Easter period too. So, if you are planning to visit Egypt during these months, we advise you to book your tour enough time in advance to guarantee the space.

    However, the Summer season (from May to September) is the low season in Egypt, as the weather is little bit hot, especially in the south of the country, from Luxor till the temples of Abu Simbel near the Egyptian borders with Sudan.

  • How many days do you need to see the highlights of Egypt?

    In order to enjoy your excursions to Cairo and see the Great Pyramids of Giza, you’ll want to spend a minimum of four or five days in the area. In a week, you can see the pyramids, explore Cairo, and make a side trip to Luxor and/or Alexandria. Spend longer than a week and you can see all of the above plus make an excursion to the southern border and see the impressive Abu Simbel temples. If you solely plan to visit Giza’s pyramids, you could technically do so in two or three quick days—this is a whirlwind experience, and we highly recommend spending more time.
