Excursions from El Gouna

Allow El Gouna to be your gateway into a wonderful journey through Egypt and its glorious history. Whether it is a desert safari with camel caravans and Bedouin dinners, or an overnight stay at Luxor, El Gouna’s travel center will organize a number of memorable excursions. Set excursions and custom tailored tours are available. Travelling from El Gouna could not be any easier. Our own airline makes several weekly flights to Upper Egypt and Cairo, and for those seeking the utmost privacy and luxury, there is the possibility of chartering your own private plane. Below are just a few suggestions. 

Upper Egypt

Luxor, Aswan and Abu Simbel are home to the most impressive monuments of the ancient world. The scale, the beauty, and the setting of these Pharanoic temples are incomparable. 

Cairo

Considered the cultural center of the Middle East, Cairo is an international city that combines the mystery of the orient with the glamour of the west. From sophisticated restaurants, nightclubs and art galleries to the fable pyramids, endless oriental bazaars and spectacular mosques, Cairo is a city full of excitement 

Fishing and Hunting Safari

Combine a historical visit to Upper Egypt with a more adventurous outing. Lake Nasser, the world’s largest man-made lake, is the setting for the most rewarding fishing and hunting experience. 

Desert Safari

An adventure of a lifetime, for the fast paced, 4X4 wheel jeeps are available, and for those seeking to experience the desert in the more traditional manner, camel caravans led by local Bedouins can also be organized. 

Boat Safari

Snorkeling, taking in the sun, the wind blowing softly in your face, freshly caught fish grilled for lunch and stopping at some of the most beautiful and completely desolate small islands, are only some of the reasons to take a boat safari on the Red Sea.
