Things to Do in Hurghada City – A Complete Guide by Egypt Tours VIP
Hurghada, once a small fishing village on Egypt’s Red Sea coast, is now one of the country’s most popular holiday destinations. Known for its turquoise waters, coral reefs, and vibrant nightlife, Hurghada offers something for every traveler. Whether you’re looking for underwater adventures, desert thrills, or cultural excursions, this guide by Egypt Tours VIP reveals the best things to do in Hurghada City.
1. Explore the Red Sea’s Underwater Paradise
Hurghada is world-famous for its marine life. Snorkeling and scuba diving trips are a must for anyone visiting the city. The Red Sea’s coral reefs are home to colorful fish, dolphins, and even turtles.
Top dive sites include Giftun Island, Abu Ramada, and Fanadir Reef. If you prefer snorkeling, Egypt Tours VIP organizes full-day trips with hotel pickup, professional guides, and equipment provided. These trips often include stops at tropical islands where you can relax, swim, and enjoy a delicious lunch on board.
2. Go on a Desert Safari Adventure
Beyond the beaches lies a vast golden desert that invites exploration. A Hurghada desert safari is an unforgettable experience combining adventure, nature, and culture.
Ride quad bikes or dune buggies through the sand dunes, visit a traditional Bedouin village, and enjoy a sunset camel ride. Many Egypt Tours VIP safaris end with a Bedouin-style dinner under the stars — complete with music and traditional food. It’s a perfect way to feel the spirit of Egypt’s desert life.
3. Visit Giftun and Orange Bay Islands
One of the top things to do in Hurghada City is visiting the beautiful islands just off the coast.
Giftun Island and Orange Bay are known as the “Maldives of Egypt.” With crystal-clear turquoise water and soft white sand, they’re ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and water sports. Egypt Tours VIP offers daily island excursions with comfortable boats, snorkeling stops, and beach access, making your day trip both fun and relaxing.
4. Discover Hurghada Marina & El Dahar Old Town
Hurghada isn’t just about beaches. The city itself has plenty to explore.
Hurghada Marina is a modern waterfront area filled with restaurants, cafés, and shops overlooking luxury yachts. It’s perfect for an evening walk and dinner by the sea.
Meanwhile, El Dahar (the old town) shows the traditional side of Hurghada — with local markets, mosques, and authentic Egyptian food. Walking through its narrow streets, you’ll experience the real culture and friendly spirit of the locals.
5. Day Trips to Luxor or Cairo
If you want to explore Egypt’s ancient treasures, Hurghada is a great starting point. Egypt Tours VIP offers private and group excursions to Luxor and Cairo — two of the most iconic historical destinations in the world.
In Luxor, you’ll visit the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple, and the Colossi of Memnon.
In Cairo, discover the Great Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian Museum.
Each tour includes hotel pickup, air-conditioned transport, entrance fees, and a certified Egyptologist guide.
6. Experience Hurghada’s Nightlife
Hurghada comes alive after sunset. The city’s nightlife is one of the most vibrant on the Red Sea coast. You’ll find beach bars, rooftop lounges, and open-air clubs where you can enjoy music and entertainment under the stars.
For a relaxed evening, join a dinner cruise organized by Egypt Tours VIP — combining fine dining, live music, and Red Sea views.
7. Water Sports and Family Fun
Hurghada is a paradise for water sports lovers. From parasailing and banana boat rides to kitesurfing and jet skiing, there’s endless fun for couples and families alike.
