Day Trips from Soma Bay
Soma Bay is a peninsula resort area known for kitesurfing, golf and spa hotels. It is the furthest area south that Hurghada Day Trips covers, so transfer times matter when you choose trips.
The good news: Soma Bay is ideally placed for Luxor. The drive is shorter than from Hurghada, so the Luxor day trip is one of the best-value excursions from here. For boat trips, a private charter departing closer to Soma Bay can save you time.

Because of the distance, a small transfer supplement may apply to some shared sea trips; it is always shown before you confirm.
Consider the two-day Luxor trip — from Soma Bay the drive is short, and the balloon ride at sunrise is unforgettable.
