Tour Program

Hotel pickup takes place in the morning, usually between 07:30 and 08:30, depending on the location of your hotel. After pickup, an air-conditioned bus heads towards Ras Mohammed National Park, passing through the desert and rocky landscapes of southern Sinai.

After crossing the desert scenery, the bus arrives at the famous Stone Gate, also known as the Allah Gate. This monument was built between 1989 and 1990 using 17 massive concrete blocks, inspired by the architecture of ancient Egyptian temples. A short stop is scheduled here for taking souvenir photos.

The tour then continues into Ras Mohammed National Park. One of the main highlights of the excursion is snorkeling at the coral reefs of the Red Sea. The water in this area is exceptionally clear, and the coral reefs are located very close to the surface. During snorkeling, you can admire colorful fish and the rich underwater world of the Red Sea. Snorkeling equipment is available for rent at an additional cost.

The next stop is the mangrove forest, one of the most remarkable natural attractions in Sinai. Mangrove trees grow directly in salt water and remove excess salt through their leaves. The area is known for its peaceful atmosphere, beautiful sea colors, and unique landscapes typical of Ras Mohammed National Park.

The excursion also includes a visit to a massive crack in the Earth’s crust that was formed after the 1962 earthquake. The fissure is approximately 42 meters long and has been partially filled with water. It is considered one of the most interesting geological attractions in the region.

One of the most unique places visited during the tour is the Magical Lake, also known as the Magic Lake or Wish Lake. According to local beliefs, swimming in its waters helps wishes come true and brings good luck. The crystal-clear water and tranquil surroundings make it a perfect place for relaxation and отдых.

The tour is easy and relaxing, making it an excellent choice for families with children. The main activities include snorkeling and exploring the extraordinary natural beauty of Ras Mohammed National Park.

Return to the hotel is planned for approximately 14:00.
