Airport transfer and excursion
We were in Egypt in July 2026. We booked the airport transfer. It was priced great and everything worked out well. We felt very safe. Furthermore, we had booked a private city tour with the family and 2 teenagers. We had a very good guide and a great bus driver. We can recommend everything 100%.
Response from the operator: Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre tolle Empfehlung! 🙏❤️ Es freut uns sehr, dass sowohl der Flughafentransfer als auch die private Stadttour mit der Familie – inklusive der beiden Teenager – so gut geklappt haben! Sicherheit, faire Preise und ein Erlebnis für die ganze Familie sind genau das, wofür Memnon Reisen steht. 🚐✨ Wir freuen uns auf Ihren nächsten Besuch in Ägypten!

Top excursion to Hurghada with a top tour guide👌👌👌
We booked this tour in Germany and can only report good things. The pickup took place in a small air-conditioned bus. There were 3 of us, the tour guide, and the driver, just a private tour. Absolutely recommended, also because of the very competent guide. Visit to the new fish market, the fruit market, the very beautiful church at the harbor, and the harbor itself. Everything with a very detailed guided tour. After that, we went to a great department store with fixed prices. In between, we had to stop briefly at a pharmacy where the tour guide accompanied us, many thanks for that too👌. Then we went to the first hotel in Hurghada, the Sheraton, and subsequently to the very worth-seeing museum. Here our Egyptologist was fully in his element and the time flew by with veeery many personal impressions from the tour guide as well. After that, a very beautiful day came to an end that has left an impression to this day. Once again, maaaany thanks to the qualified Egyptologist Sayed Hassan, whom we would very much like to book again next time in order to then be able to visit the pyramids and other sights. Memnon Reisen is absolutely recommended and is the first choice when it comes to discovering Egypt and learning a lot about it from a competent source👍👌 The V. family from Frankfurt (Oder)
Response from the operator: Vielen herzlichen Dank, liebe Familie V. aus Frankfurt (Oder), für diese ausführliche und begeisterte Bewertung! 🙏❤️ Es freut uns sehr, dass Ihre private Hurghada-Stadttour – vom Fischmarkt über die Kirche am Hafen und das Sheraton bis hin zum Museum – so viele bleibende Eindrücke hinterlassen hat! Und dass unser Diplom-Ägyptologe Sayed Hassan im Museum so richtig in seinem Element war, das hören wir sehr gerne 😊 Wir leiten Ihr herzliches Lob direkt an ihn weiter – er wird sich sehr darüber freuen! 💎 Wir freuen uns schon jetzt auf Ihren nächsten Besuch – die Pyramiden und viele weitere Sehenswürdigkeiten warten auf Sie! Bei Memnon Reisen sind Sie immer in besten Händen.

If you really want to get to know something...
We booked directly through the website. From inquiry to booking, everything went very smoothly and understandably via WhatsApp. We booked the private tour Hurghada plus museum. We were picked up on time at the hotel. Our driver was extremely considerate and drove very well. Our guide Sayed Hassan is a trained Egyptologist and speaks very good German. We learned so much new information during that time that we did not know before. The museum is very beautiful. The markets, the mosque, and the side streets of Hurghada should be seen. We would book a tour through Memnon again at any time.
Response from the operator: Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre ausführliche Bewertung! 🙏 Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass von der Buchung über WhatsApp bis zur Tour selbst alles reibungslos und zu Ihrer Zufriedenheit verlaufen ist. Unsere Hurghada City Tour mit Museum ist wirklich ein Erlebnis, das viele Urlauber überrascht – die Stadt hat so viel mehr zu bieten als nur Strand und Hotel. Märkte, Moschee, das Museum und die authentischen Nebenstraßen geben einen echten Einblick in das ägyptische Alltagsleben, den man auf einer Gruppenreise so kaum bekommt. Wir freuen uns sehr, dass Sie jederzeit wieder eine Tour mit Memnon Reisen buchen würden – wir sind gerne wieder für Sie da! Herzliche Grüße, Memnon Reisen

Really great excursion.
We had a fantastic trip, visiting a mosque, a church, the fish market, a fruit and vegetable market, and the marina. Even a short shopping stop was unexpectedly possible. The guide Shauky was truly wonderful, very warm-hearted. There was ice cream, Arabic coffee in a café, and drinks, all for free. We would definitely recommend the tour to anyone.
Response from the operator: Vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre tolle Bewertung! 🙏 Es freut uns sehr, dass die Hurghada City Tour so viele schöne Eindrücke hinterlassen hat. Genau das macht diese Tour so besonders: Moschee, Kirche, Fischmarkt, der lebhafte Obst- und Gemüsemarkt und die Marina – man erlebt das echte Hurghada abseits der Hotelanlagen, mit all seiner Vielfalt und seinem Charme. Und natürlich gehören arabischer Kaffee und ein Eis dazu – Gastfreundschaft wird bei uns großgeschrieben! 😊 Wir freuen uns, Sie bei Ihrem nächsten Besuch in Ägypten wieder begrüßen zu dürfen! Herzliche Grüße, Memnon Reisen

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ) cost?
+
Prices start at $23 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 VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ) take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 33 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 VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets )?
+
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 VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets )?
+
Around 12 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does VIP Private Hurghada City Tour ( El Dahar Old Town & Markets ) 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: Luxor Valley of the Kings & Tutankhamun Tomb Trip, Orange Bay Island, Luxury Cruise to Orange Bay and Hula Hula island Trip. 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.
