Day Trips from Safaga
Safaga is a port town south of Soma Bay, popular with divers and guests seeking quieter beaches. It is the natural starting point for Luxor, since the road to the Nile Valley starts right here.
From Safaga, a Luxor day trip is noticeably shorter than from Hurghada, and the Nile cruise is a comfortable option too. For boat trips and safaris, we arrange pickup with a transfer supplement shown at booking.

Local tips for Safaga guests
Safaga's reefs are excellent for diving; beginners can still book our try-dive with transfer.
Combine Luxor with a private desert safari for a varied week.
