Itinerary

Your Around Egypt Tours guide meets you at your hotel lobby to begin one of Sharm El Sheikh's most popular day tours: the Tiran Island snorkeling trip. You're transferred by private air-conditioned vehicle on a 30-minute drive to the harbor, where you board a boat for an unforgettable day on the water. The boat sails for roughly two hours northeast along the Gulf of Aqaba toward the stunning "Blue Lagoon," a paradise for water activities, offering clear waters, vividly colored coral reefs, and an array of rainbow-hued fish, whether you choose to dive, snorkel, or simply swim.

From there, the trip continues to the lovely shores of Tiran Island, where you'll have plenty of time for further snorkeling, swimming, or relaxing in the sun. All necessary equipment is provided, and you'll enjoy a delicious open buffet lunch on board, along with mineral water and cold drinks.

After a full day of snorkeling at Tiran Island, the boat sails back to the jetty, where your representative transfers you back to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh.
