Educational day out!
We went on this trip with 2 other friends that we had met in Egypt. The trip took us to a bazaar first (which was just the same as any other shop in Egypt.) initially we were a little disappointed and wondered what had we got ourselves into, but following this we were to the biggest mosque in the area, another Christian church, a perfume factory, the marina and then the Hard Rock Cafe We had this trip for free, while it being very cultural, it was a little disappointing as we were expecting it to be a real bazaar rather than a normal shop. But after that the day was quite interesting and we did gain some knowledge from this.

Different day
Beside seeing the mosque,church,the marina and the fancy side of Hurghada, I was pretty happy that we went to the old part of town,the baazar to see how life really is in Egypt.

Enjoyed every second of it! Our tour...
<p>Enjoyed every second of it! Our tour guide Mohammad was excellent and knew all the best sights to see. We visited the mosque, boat yard, fishing yard, local market, the perfumery, local shopping gallery and the old hurghada all topped off with a delicious lunch. Highly recommended.</p>

This tour was awesome and our guide...
<p>This tour was awesome and our guide very informative and knowledgeable. Seeing the culture and lifestyle between the old and new Hurghada was eye opening and at times sad to see. Our guide Mohammed was super friendly and made the day relaxing, educational and fun, especially as it is Ramadan.</p>

Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.

Who is Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing best for?
+
It suits families and anyone who wants flexible plans best, based on its 3-hour length, all-ages access and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Is Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing good value?
+
It is a premium pick. It starts at $172, above the $11 typical for similar experiences in Hurghada.
How much does Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing cost?
+
Prices start at $172 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 Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing 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 Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 15 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 Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing?
+
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 Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing 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 Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing?
+
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 Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing 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 happens to Private Tour: Hurghada City Sightseeing if the weather is bad?
