The Coloured Canyon near Nuweiba is a slot canyon of banded sandstone, in places narrow enough to touch both walls. The walk through takes about two hours over sand and rock with a few scrambles. It is done with a Bedouin guide, and finishing on the Gulf of Aqaba coast for lunch is the right ending.
Early pickup from Dahab, Nuweiba or Sharm. Four-wheel drive to the canyon head, roughly two hours walking through, then out to the coast for lunch and time in the water.
Send us the dates and how many people are travelling, by WhatsApp or the form on this page. We reply with a written itinerary and a fixed price, usually within a few hours. Confirming is a message, not a payment.
No. We ask for no deposit and take no payment to hold a date. Nothing is charged when you book and nothing is payable in advance - you settle with us in Egypt once the trip is running.
Tell us and we will change it, or cancel it, at no cost. There is no cancellation fee and no deadline to worry about, because nothing has been paid up front. If plans shift while you are already here, we will rearrange what we can on the day.
The tourist regions are heavily policed and we work in them daily. Your guide stays with you at every site. If you are travelling alone, tell us - we will match you with a guide accordingly.
Pairs well with
A submarine sinkhole, a village that never became a resort, and cushions on the beach.
A 02:00 start, 750 steps at the top, and the oldest working library in the world.
A crusader castle on an island, and four countries visible from one viewpoint.
