St Catherine Monastery Day Trip from Sharm Marina
Journey from Sharm El Sheikh Marina to the sacred St. Catherine Monastery, one of…
Some of the Red Sea's most dazzling reefs sit just offshore from Sharm El Sheikh Marina, and this full-day sail delivers you straight to them at Ras Mohammed National Park.
Swap the pool deck for the open Red Sea on a full-day boat trip from Sharm El Sheikh Marina to Ras Mohammed National Park. The day pairs snorkelling and swimming over brilliant reefs with a lunch served onboard and sweeping coastal views, all before a comfortable return to your cruise ship.
The day starts as your ship docks at Sharm El Sheikh Marina, where our representative is waiting to welcome you. A short hop brings you to the harbour, where you board your comfortable sightseeing boat and set a course for Ras Mohammed National Park, one of the planet's most celebrated snorkelling grounds.
Gliding out over the glittering Red Sea, you pause at a series of standout snorkelling sites renowned for their living coral reefs and extraordinary marine life. Slip into the clear water to meet darting tropical fish and drift above intricate coral gardens — or, if you would rather stay dry, swim gently, stretch out in the sun, or simply take in the coastline from the deck.
Come midday, a freshly cooked lunch is served onboard while panoramic sea views surround you. Afterwards there is still time to get back in the water, swim, or unwind before the boat turns for home.
With a memorable day on the water behind you, the boat returns to Sharm El Sheikh Marina, where your driver is ready to whisk you back to the ship in good time for departure, the Red Sea's underwater world still fresh in your mind.

Every figure you see on our site is expressed in US Dollars (USD) by default, but paying in your home currency is never a problem. Whether you settle up in Euros (EUR), British Pounds (GBP), or another widely traded currency, we simply apply the official exchange rate in force on the day your payment clears.
Because the travel market shifts with the seasons and with what suppliers can actually deliver, the rates we advertise are not permanent and can be revised at any moment without advance warning. The reassuring part: the second we receive your deposit or your payment in full, that figure is frozen and protected for the rest of your booking.
Here is what a Min Travel package typically puts in your hands:
For the precise list of what is and is not covered, always refer to the confirmation and itinerary tied to your own reservation.
Holiday Supplement: Trips and Nile Cruises falling over Christmas, New Year, or Easter carry a 25% surcharge, a reflection of how heavily these peak dates are booked.
How much you pay upfront to lock in a Min Travel booking comes down to what you are reserving, so our terms are grouped by service type:
The instant your payment goes through, we email you a written confirmation, a personalized itinerary, and your travel documents, and every payment you make comes with its own receipt.
Life doesn't always go to plan, and we get that. Here is how a cancellation is handled, measured against your arrival date:
Where money is owed back to you, expect it within 14 business days from the day we receive your cancellation in writing. Do keep in mind that individual hotels and certain cruises enforce tougher rules of their own, and any such condition will be spelled out plainly in your itinerary.
Families are always welcome aboard our tours, and we price younger travelers on a sliding scale:
These reduced rates hold only where a child shares a room with two adults who are each paying in full. Bear in mind that a handful of luxury hotels and Nile Cruises set their own conditions for younger guests, and any such restriction that touches your trip will appear in your itinerary.
Beyond the standard package there are a number of extra experiences you can choose to add. Reserve them ahead of time or sort them out on the spot once you are there, availability permitting. A few of the favorites travelers pick up:
You can pay for these add-ons in either USD or Egyptian pounds (EGP). Booking early is wise, all the more so when you are traveling in the busy season.
Our packages cover a great deal, but a few costs fall outside them and are worth setting money aside for:
It helps to keep a little Egyptian currency (EGP) on hand as you go, particularly for tipping and for picking things up in the local markets.
In Egypt, tipping (known as "baksheesh") is simply how good service is acknowledged. No one is obliged to tip, but the gesture goes a long way and is warmly received. As a rough guide:
Gratuities sit outside your package price, so it's worth keeping a few small USD or EGP notes within easy reach for the moments they're called for.
Egypt is at its most welcoming in the winter, roughly November to February, when mild temperatures make wandering around the pyramids and temples a pleasure rather than an endurance test. It's wise to steer clear of high summer (June to August), when the mercury can climb past 40°C (104°F) across much of the country.
Before you arrive, make sure the following are sorted:
By and large, yes. Egypt puts considerable effort into protecting visitors, particularly at major attractions and in the larger cities, so tourists are generally well looked after. As with any trip abroad, it's still smart to review your government's current travel advisories and keep an eye on local news before and during your visit.
Pulling an Egypt trip together is straightforward once you work through it step by step:
No, gratuities aren't built into the tour price. Tipping, known locally as "baksheesh," is woven into everyday life in Egypt, and it's customary to reward guides, drivers, and hotel staff directly. A sensible approach is to let the quality of service guide you, generally in the region of 10-15% of the bill or service cost.
