    Private city tour Hurghada

    We booked the private city tour in Hurghada. We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide was "Mo"; he picked us up on time and showed us everything that was promised. The marina and the mosque were particularly special. Everything was very beautiful.

    Response from the operator: Vielen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! Es ist fantastisch zu hören, dass Sie eine rundum gelungene Zeit mit uns hatten. Unser Ziel ist es, jedem Gast ein authentisches und unvergessliches Erlebnis zu bieten. Wir würden uns freuen, Sie bei Ihrer nächsten Ägypten-Reise wieder als unsere Gäste begrüßen zu dürfen. ​Herzliche Grüße aus Ägypten, Ihr More Egypt Tours Team

    Got a little closer to the culture of a country

    We had a great tour, our guide was very accommodating and showed us a lot, explaining everything so we could get to know the country better. I would gladly take a tour with our organizer again at any time.

    Response from the operator: Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihr wunderbares Feedback! Es freut uns riesig zu hören, dass Ihnen unsere City Tour durch das alte Hurghada so gut gefallen hat und dass unser Guide Ihnen das Land und die Kultur näherbringen konnte. Ihre Weiterempfehlung bedeutet uns sehr viel, und wir freuen uns schon jetzt darauf, Sie bei Ihrem nächsten Aufenthalt in Ägypten wieder an Bord begrüßen zu dürfen!

    Very interesting experience.

    Very interesting tour that exceeded our expectations. Travelled by car - comfortable, air conditioned - with water provided. The Tour guide was very pleasant and knowledgable - telling us all about the local way of life. My favourite part was seeing the big Mosque - it was stunning to see and also the port area was lovely to walk around. Three hours was plenty of time to see everything at a leisurely pace. Great value for money. I would highly recommend.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words and for choosing More Egypt Tours. We are thrilled to hear that our city tour exceeded your expectations! ​It is great to know that you enjoyed the comfort of our private transfer and found the insights into the local way of life valuable. We agree—the Big Mosque and the vibrant atmosphere of the port are truly the highlights of Old Hurghada. Our team takes great pride in sharing the authentic Egyptian spirit with our guests, and your recommendation means a lot to us. ​We hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! ​Best regards, The More Egypt Tours Team"

    Exciting, impressive and highly recommended! An exciting experience through ancient Hurghada!

    My sister and I have already booked trips with Moreegypt Tours. This time it was a city tour of old Hurghada. It was once again perfectly organized. We like to book there because we already know the very friendly and courteous staff. We visited great places and were also able to purchase one or the other. We can highly recommend this team! A very friendly and punctual staff which made us feel like a friend and not a guest! Anytime again!!! Highly recommended!!

    Response from the operator: Vielen Dank für Ihren Besuch! ​"Liebe Gäste, ​vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre wunderbare Bewertung und die Weiterempfehlung! Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass Sie eine traumhafte Zeit auf Unsere alte Stadttour und Sightseeing von Hurghada hatten und wir Ihre Wünsche erfüllen konnten. ​Eine reibungslose Kommunikation und glückliche Gäste stehen für uns an erster Stelle. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wieder bei uns an Bord begrüßen zu dürfen! ​Herzliche Grüße, Das Team von More Egypt Tours"

    Great introduction to Eygpt

    Mohammed was full of knowledge and provided us with a great few hours. He was attentive and we felt comfortable in his company

    Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping cost?

    +

    Prices start at $5 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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping 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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 21 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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping?

    +

    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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping 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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping?

    +

    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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping 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 Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping?

    +

    Included: shopping tour; Coptic Cathedral of Saint Shenouda, Ad-Dahar,, Hurghada Egypt; Private transportation; Mosque El Mina Masjid; and Hurghada Marina.

    What languages is Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Private Hurghada City Tour with Old Town and Shopping wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
