⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Incredible afternoon/evening Exploring Sharm El Sheikh with Nabil!
We absolutely loved our guided city tour of Sharm El Sheikh and would give it a solid 5 out of 5 stars! From start to finish, everything was smooth, enjoyable, and full of fascinating sights—and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Nabil.
Nabil was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience feel personalized and relaxed. His colleague picked us up right on time in a comfortable, air-conditioned new vehicle (Mitsubishi 4 by 4) and took us through the highlights of Sharm. Our first stop was at an old mosque followed by a look around where real locals live followed by a stop at the Old Market which was worth seeing/wandering about. We appreciated the time to explore and shop for souvenirs at our own pace. The new mosque there is absolutely stunning and adds a majestic feel to the area where people were not too pushy and gave a bit more of a flavor of "real" Egypt (as opposed to the resort all week).
Next, we had a quick, but lovely visit to Genena City Shopping Mall, where the views over Naama Bay were truly breathtaking. We ended the tour at Soho Square, which was full of energy, entertainment, and charm. we popped into the "ice bar" and also caught the dancing fountain, it was the perfect way to wind down before heading back to our hotel.
This tour (around 4.5 - 5 hours in total) gave us a great overview of the wider city of Sharm El Sheikh, and we walked away with a deeper appreciation for the city’s character and vibrance (more to it than the resorts). Highly recommended—and if you can, ask for Nabil! He really made the day special. Aaron, Shannon and Boden.
