Itinerary
A representative from Rotana Egypt Travel will meet you in your hotel in Hurghada for a day out to Mahmya to set off on one of the two boats available there.
Witness the beautiful island of Mahmya situated in the Red Sea, which is also part of the Giftun Island National Park, just a few kilometers from the shores of Hurghada. This full-day tour, one of the top Hurghada day tours, includes an air-conditioned vehicle to and from your hotel, with an additional hour of boat ride included.
Then proceed for a leisurely excursion around the beautiful water on board a well-maintained ship after the transfer. Imagine having white beaches lined with palm trees and palm-bark cottages. Enjoy the heat of the Red Sea, which is entry-free, and even glance about in hopes of spotting some dolphins. Later, they prepare a snorkeling activity in the clear lagoon, ready with lots of coral structures that are under off the island of Mahmya. One may prefer to lounge on the shore and take a dip in the clean seas instead.
Located on the southern beaches of Mahmya lies the Giftun National Park, approximately a few miles from the shoreline of Hurghada. Egypt day tours like this one offer a unique experience, as the term Mahmya means 'a protected place' in Arabic. To protect the coral and its inhabitants, boats remain on moored buoys in the pristine bay, and you will be ferried to the beach with smaller boats.
Enjoy an appetizing midday meal on the island in the restaurant serving seafood and Italian cuisine, while also serving drinks from the bar all day.
By the end of the day, you will take the boat trip back to the marina and then it will be time to get back to your hotel.
