About this tour

This Colored Canyon Trip from Sharm El Sheikh is one of the most exciting desert adventures in South Sinai, combining off-road exploration, spectacular rock formations, and the relaxed coastal atmosphere of Dahab in one full-day experience.

Travel by 4×4 across the Sinai Peninsula to Colored Canyon Sinai, a natural maze of narrow passages, towering sandstone walls, and colorful rock formations shaped over millions of years. Walking through the colored canyon feels more like an adventure than a traditional sightseeing tour, with winding paths, rocky climbs, and dramatic desert scenery surrounding you from every direction.

The trip also includes time in Dahab, one of the most relaxed coastal towns on the Red Sea, known for its local markets, seaside cafés, and laid-back atmosphere.

With Respect Tours, Egypt Through Local Eyes, the tour is carefully organized to provide a smooth and comfortable experience from start to finish, combining adventure, local culture, and Sinai’s unique desert landscapes in one memorable day trip from Sharm El Sheikh.

Itinerary

Your day begins with pickup from your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh before beginning the journey across the desert landscapes of the Sinai Peninsula by 4x4.     

 

After around two hours of driving, arrive at Colored Canyon Sinai, one of the most famous natural attractions in South Sinai. Here, you’ll walk through narrow canyon paths surrounded by huge sandstone walls filled with natural layers of red, yellow, orange, and golden colors formed over millions of years.    

 

The experience feels more adventurous than a normal sightseeing tour, with narrow passages, rocky climbs, and small gaps between the canyon walls creating one of the most unique desert experiences near Sharm El Sheikh. Your guide will assist you throughout the walk while sharing more about the canyon and the surrounding Sinai landscape.    

 

After exploring the colored canyon, continue to Dahab, the relaxed coastal town on the Red Sea. Enjoy lunch before having free time to explore Dahab’s local markets, seaside cafés, and small shops selling handmade products, jewelry, perfumes, and traditional souvenirs.    

 

At the end of the day, return to your hotel in Sharm El Sheikh by 4x4 vehicle after a full day of adventure, desert scenery, and local experiences in South Sinai.    

 

Traveler’s Tip: Comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended, as parts of the canyon include uneven rocky paths and small climbs.

Thank you all for your great support and for making the experience smooth and pleasant. I highly appreciate your efforts and look forward to using your service again in the future.

Best travel agency This review is a true evidence to the great experience and happiness I had with this company. Honestly I've never dealt with people like the team at Respect Tours. They are incredibly friendly and welcoming especially Mr. David Asaad who is one of the most wonderful people I've ever met. He is very kind easy to get along with and has a big heart. His professionalism was outstanding and he is also a great leader with confidence and knowledge I would also like to give a special thanks to our driver Mohsen. He was very friendly helpful and professional throughout our trips and made us feel comfortable and well taken care of. I truly thank the wonderful Respect Tours team and wish them continued success and all the best.

Wonderful services - Respect Tour via Novotel Borg / Cairo Exceptional Support and Professionalism - Respect Tours - Novotel El Borg / Cairo I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Achraf Zaki and his colleague Ayman for their outstanding professionalism, kindness and dedication. From the very beginning, they made us feel completely confident and well taken care of. They took the time to understand our expectations and helped us choose the best options to discover and enjoy this wonderful city of Cairo in auguste 2026. Their professionalism, availability and warm attitude truly made a difference and contributed to making our stay even more enjoyable. We will certainly return to the same hotel on our next visit to Cairo, and it will be a real pleasure to have the opportunity to contact Mr. Achraf Zaki and Ayman again.
