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.

Questions from Safaga guests

Do all trips pick up from Safaga?

Most do. For a few short activities the transfer costs more than the activity; we will suggest the best option.
