This is a fantastic full-day experience, lasting approximately 12 hours in total. We typically begin with hotel pickups around 7:00 a.m. The transfer to Ain Sokhna takes about two hours, and we aim for a departure from the resort at 5:00 p.m. (17:00) to head back to Cairo.

We have secured a relaxing "Day Use" for you at the gorgeous Stella de Mare resort. This gives you full access to their beautiful facilities and the stunning Red Sea beaches, ensuring you have a perfect base for swimming and relaxing.

Yes, absolutely! All your transportation is completely covered. You will travel in comfort in a private, modern, air-conditioned vehicle for the entire 120 km journey from your hotel in Cairo to Ein Sokhna and back.

Ain Sokhna is famous for its crystal-clear Red Sea waters and soft sandy beaches. You are welcome to spend the day swimming, sunbathing, and soaking up the stunning scenery, which includes a beautiful mountainous backdrop. It’s the perfect spot for pure relaxation.

The price you pay is comprehensive. It covers all private transfers, the resort's day-use fee, lunch, bottled water, all taxes, and service charges. The only things not covered are personal purchases and, of course, any gratuities (tipping) you wish to give.

Since you’ll be enjoying the Red Sea and the resort facilities, you should definitely pack your essentials! Bring a swimsuit, a hat, sunglasses, plenty of sun cream, and a beach towel. You may also want a good book for relaxing and some cash for any optional expenses or personal purchases you might make at the resort.

Absolutely! Ain Sokhna is a fantastic and relaxing beach getaway that's perfect for families. The resort we visit, Stella de Mare, offers beautiful, safe, and clean beach areas where everyone can enjoy the sunshine and the clear Red Sea waters.

While the primary focus is on relaxing and enjoying the resort's facilities and the Red Sea, the Ain Sokhna area is famous for water sports! Once you are at the Stella de Mare, you can inquire directly with the resort about optional activities like jet skiing, or other water sports they may offer for an additional fee.

We make it easy for you! Your trip includes convenient, door-to-door service. We will pick you up directly from your hotel in Cairo in the morning and ensure you are dropped off safely back at your hotel after the day trip concludes in the evening.

Ain Sokhna, which translates to "Hot Spring," is the closest and most accessible part of the Red Sea coast from Cairo—it’s just a two-hour drive! It’s highly recommended because it offers beautiful, calm, clear waters and soft sandy beaches, all set against a dramatic mountainous backdrop. It’s the perfect, hassle-free way to enjoy the Red Sea in a single day.

We always want you to have an enjoyable meal! If you have any specific dietary needs or restrictions (vegetarian, allergies, etc.), please let us know when you book your trip. We will make every effort to accommodate your request with the hotel kitchen so you can enjoy your included lunch worry-free.

The entire goal of this trip is relaxation! While the travel is scheduled efficiently, the day is intentionally planned to maximize your time at the resort. You will arrive around 9:00 a.m. and stay until 5:00 p.m., giving you a full eight hours of quality time to swim, sunbathe, and truly unwind without feeling rushed.

Since this is one of the most popular ways to escape Cairo for the beach, we recommend booking your trip as soon as you know your travel dates, especially if you plan to travel on a weekend or during peak season. Booking early ensures you secure your spot and the private air-conditioned vehicle.

This is a private transfer day trip focused purely on relaxation, so you will not have a dedicated tour guide. Your professional, friendly driver will be your main contact, ensuring smooth logistics, safe transportation, and coordinating your pick-up and drop-off times. Once you arrive at the Stella de Mare resort, the hotel staff will be available to assist you with any needs during your day use.

Certainly! Your comfort is a top priority. You will be transferred in a high-quality, private, modern vehicle—typically a comfortable sedan or a spacious minivan (depending on your group size). Rest assured, it will be air-conditioned, well-maintained, and driven by a professional to ensure a relaxing journey.

Yes, absolutely! Since the entire day is spent enjoying the Day Use at the Stella de Mare resort, you will have access to all the resort's facilities. This includes clean and convenient changing rooms, restrooms, and showers, making it easy for you to transition from swimming to traveling back to Cairo feeling refreshed.

We aim to make this trip accessible to everyone. The private vehicle provides comfortable, direct transportation, minimizing walking during the transfer. The Stella de Mare resort is a modern facility that generally offers accessible pathways to the beach and common areas. If you or someone in your group has specific mobility needs, please contact us upon booking so we can coordinate the most convenient pickup spot and confirm accessibility details with the resort for you.

Tipping (baksheesh) is entirely voluntary and is always a kind gesture to show your appreciation for excellent service. While not mandatory, if you feel your driver provided a safe, comfortable, and helpful experience throughout your long day, a tip is greatly valued. A common guideline in Egyptian tourism is typically 5-10% of the trip's cost or a set amount you feel comfortable with, given the 12-hour round trip and dedicated service.

We want you to feel secure and supported throughout your entire trip. You will be provided with a local emergency contact number before your departure. Whether it's a simple coordination question or an unexpected urgency, you can reach our support team 24/7 for immediate assistance.

The ultimate highlight is the incredible contrast and convenience! You transition from the bustle of Cairo to the serenity of the Red Sea in just a couple of hours, landing in a beautiful resort with clear waters. The combination of relaxing on a pristine beach while enjoying the stunning view of the rugged mountains meeting the sea is truly a memorable, picture-perfect moment.

We understand that plans can shift. If you need to modify or cancel your booking, the best thing to do is contact our customer service team immediately. We will be happy to review your reservation and walk you through our specific policy to find the best possible solution for you.
