Beautiful trip
What an amazing trip! The views and surrounding area are just amazingly beautiful! The guide was brilliant, friendly and took the time to communicate with the kids too. He was very informative, told us all about the different areas, even in the private vehicle, he was explaining about all the different areas and land marks, he then gave us time to visit the shops and buy souvenirs. We would absolutely recommend this trip and this company for all your trips in sharm! We've used Sharm tours on a few occasions now and Eissa makes our holidays so much easier and is extremely helpful. Thankyou for helping make our holiday that much better 🤗
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! It was an absolute pleasure arranging your trip We hope to welcome you back again for another adventure in the future. Thank you once again! 🌟

Amazing trip, very knowledgeable.
Absolutely amazing. Couldn't fault this from start to finish. Eissa was very knowledgeable about the local history and culture. Museum is a wonderful sight. Old Market is a hustle, but Eissa took us to a reputable and no hassle green pharmacy (herbs, fragrances etc...) shop and was very good, lovely people. Pick up was simple, drop off easy. Eissa English top notch. Highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this incredible review! We’re truly delighted that your experience with Sharmtours was unforgettable from start to finish. 🙏

Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sharm el Sheikh.
How much does Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $27 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sharm el Sheikh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour 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 Sharm el Sheikh is not rushed.
Is Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sharm el Sheikh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour?
+
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 Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour 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 Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour?
+
Around 3 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 Sharm el Sheikh 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 Sharm el Sheikh and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour 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 Sharm el Sheikh 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 Sharm el Sheikh?
+
On Outty we rank every Sharm el Sheikh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sharm El sheikh Safari ATV Quad with Camel Ride & hotel transfer, Sharm El Sheikh: Ras Mohammed Snorkeling, Allah Gate & Magic Lake, Sharm El-Sheikh: Ultimate ATV Quad, Stargazing & BBQ Dinner. 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 Sharm el Sheikh?
+
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 Sharm el Sheikh?
+
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 Sharm El-Sheikh Museum and Old Market Private Tour?
+

+

+
