Misleading Advertisement
This tour is mis advertised. Firstly, after booking was told its NOT a guided tour. Its not even a tour! We got picked up from hotel no issue but dropped off in old egypt nothing much there didnt even get to Soho Square! Do not recommend
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We would like to respectfully clarify a few important points for future readers. This experience is clearly described as a city highlights transfer with stops, not a fully guided historical walking tour. Our driver’s role is transportation between the listed locations, not guided commentary. On the day of your booking, the itinerary was followed as planned. After visiting the Old Market area, our driver informed you that the next stops would be the church and Soho Square, exactly as advertised. However, you personally requested to return to the hotel and not continue to the remaining locations. This decision was entirely yours and was confirmed at the time. Unfortunately, it is not accurate to state that these places were “not visited” due to the tour, when the continuation was declined by the guests themselves. We always aim to be flexible and respect our guests’ wishes, even when they choose to shorten the experience. That said, we believe it is important for reviews to reflect what actually happened. We wish you all the best in your future travels.

Sharm Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sharm el Sheikh.
How much does Sharm Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square cost?
+
Prices start at $35 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 Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 3 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 Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square?
+
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 Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sharm Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square?
+
Around 1 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sharm Private City Tour: Market, Mosque, Church, Soho Square 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.
