The experience

Overview

Explore Sharm El Sheikh’s Old Market, Al Sahaba Mosque, and Farsha Mountain Café with an expert guide and round-trip transfers. Getting started Begin with hotel pickup, where your driver meets you for a relaxed, air-conditioned transfer. Your expert guide joins you for the drive into Sharm El Sheikh, explains the plan for your private or shared tour, and answers initial questions. The first stop on your route is Al Sahaba Mosque, where the guided city exploration begins. What to expect Al Sahaba Mosque This Sharm El Sheikh city tour starts at Al Sahaba Mosque, one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks that combines modern design with Fatimid-style elements. Features At Al Sahaba Mosque, you see its soaring minarets and detailed stonework up close, while your expert guide explains its history and cultural importance in local life. Your private or shared tour includes a dedicated professional guide at this stop, giving you time to look around and ask questions at a flexible pace, depending on the option you select. During Ramadan, the visit to Al Sahaba Mosque is from the outside only during prayer time, since interior access is closed to visitors at those hours. Old Market (Souk) The route continues to the Old Market (Souk), also known as El Souk, a central trading area known for its busy lanes and local shops. Features Walking through the Old Market (Souk), you follow your guide through a maze of stalls offering spices, handmade crafts, textiles, and souvenirs, with opportunities to bargain and observe local daily routines. This guided walk through the Old Market is included as part of your private or shared tour, so you can decide how long to browse at each section within the flexible sightseeing time of your chosen option. Farsha Mountain Café Your final major stop is Farsha Mountain Café, set on a clifftop that overlooks the Red Sea. Features At Farsha Mountain Café, you head directly to the second-floor terrace to avoid long waits on the lower level, giving you quicker access to a relaxed seating area and photo spots with Red Sea views. Around one hour is planned at Farsha Mountain Café, with drinks and snacks available to purchase on site; these refreshments are not included in the tour price. Access to the lower level of Farsha Mountain Café is restricted, so children under 16 and single guests are not allowed on that lower level, and your guide will direct you to the permitted areas. This stop at Farsha Mountain Café is part of your guided itinerary and is covered by your round-trip transfers, which return you to your hotel once your time here is complete. Wrapping up After your visit to Farsha Mountain Café, you meet your driver at the agreed pick-up point for a comfortable round-trip transfer back to your hotel. On the Private Guided Tour option, flexible sightseeing time lets you adjust how long you stay at each stop in coordination with your expert guide.
