Very few operators on the Red Sea let you actually swim with your horse in open water; most riding tours stop at the beach. Wild Tide takes you further: a scenic desert and coastline trail ride, followed by a rare swim alongside your horse in the warm Red Sea. Our horses are specially trained and comfortable in water, so the swim is calm, safe, and unforgettable. You'll ride through two landscapes in one trip, golden desert and turquoise coastline, in small groups (max 10), so guides can give you real attention. Optional photos of your swimming moment are not included, not an upsell. Beginners get full guidance and a safety briefing, so no riding experience is needed. It's not just a horseback ride; it's one of the rarest, most photogenic experiences you can have in Egypt.

    We booked here a horse riding of two hours with Ahmed, me and my best friend had the best riding ever on the beach and desert. There was the sunset, we have beautiful picture to remember this experience, thank to the guide and the owner that has great experience in working with people and of corse with horses. Lovely. Thank you.

    Magical ❤️

    Galloping facing the sea, hair in the wind, in the magnificent landscapes of Egypt, it is much more than a simple ride: it is a suspended moment, a break out of time. 🇪🇬☀️

    Response from the operator: Merci beaucoup pour ce magnifique témoignage ! 🇪🇬☀️ Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié cette expérience unique à cheval, entre mer et paysages magnifiques. 🐎🌊 Votre satisfaction nous fait très plaisir, et nous espérons vous revoir bientôt pour une nouvelle aventure en Égypte ! ❤️

    Amazing!!

    Very welcoming and friendly. My eldest is a confident rider and enjoyed galloping along the beach and going in the sea. My youngest was scared at first, she’s never ridden before but the guides were amazing with her, very patient and she was soon off on the beach on the horse. The horses looked happy and healthy. All of the staff were kind and welcoming. Will try to book it again before the end of our holiday as they loved it so much! We also had the camera man who took some amazing photos and videos which we will treasure!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🥰🐴 We’re delighted that both your children had such a memorable experience, especially seeing your youngest gain confidence so quickly. It means a lot to hear that you enjoyed the horses, the team, and the beach ride. We’re also thrilled you loved the photos and videos! 📸❤️ We’d be very happy to welcome you all back before your holiday ends! 🌊🐎

    Best trip

    Absolutely brilliant from arriving to finishing. Our 4 year old wasn't so keen in the water yet the guides were so patient and attentive. First time riders and everyone were very helpful and we enjoyed every part.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🥰🐴 We’re delighted that you and your family enjoyed every part of the experience. It was our pleasure to be patient and attentive with your little one, especially around the water. ❤️ We’re also so happy our team made your first riding experience comfortable and memorable. We hope to welcome you all back soon! 🌊🐎

    Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.

    How much does Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming cost?

    +

    Prices start at €14 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hurghada is not rushed.

    Is Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming?

    +

    Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hurghada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hurghada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hurghada?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Hurghada Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip With Lunch & Transfer. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hurghada?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hurghada?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Hurghada: Morning or Sunset Horse Riding & Swimming?
