Heartbreaking
Do not ride the animals in Egypt, they are horrendously treated. Animals are beaten and worked to death. Things must change.

Great activity - especially horse riding.
This was a really good activity start to finish for the whole family including daughters aged 7 and 11. The horse riding activity was amazing with our two guides. We had to ask them to provide riding helmets but they did so no problem. I read a previous review that said it’s just “off you go” which was true. Luckily my girls and husband know how to ride. That said I did just fine and received a lot of help and tips along the way. This was a full hour and 45 min activity. On return we had a lovely buffet meal followed by a little performance. The stargazing was good but I would have loved a longer experience if possible. Would recommend.

Fabulous trip
Amazing trip. Wonderful horseback ride with guides looking out for our safety but also letting us ride as we wished. Dinner and show after ride were great. Loved every minute of our adventure

Good experience
absolutely great apart from if you can’t ride it doesn’t matter 🙈 they get you to just hold on and just go which was a problem for one of our family as she has a bad back and just wanted to chill. Also always wear trousers else you will know about it in the morning 🙈 The place overall was good and welcoming and we had a really good time.

Best experience I had on my trip
It was perfect, they always look at how you’re doing and will help you if you have any problems. We had a lot of extra wishes for photos and videos together, they did everything like we wished and are always really friendly

Who is Hurghada: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show best for?
+

How much does Hurghada: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show cost?
+
Prices start at £30 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: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show 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: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 19 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: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show?
+

Is Hurghada: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show 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: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show?
+
Around 7 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: Sea & Desert Horseback Riding, Stargazing, Dinner, Show 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.

+
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.
