Red Sea Escapes

A Week in Marsa Alam, Egypt: Red Sea Luxury and Desert Adventure

Seven nights of turquoise waters, coral reefs, and golden desert horizons on Egypt's unspoiled Red Sea coast.


This Marsa Alam vacation package delivers a carefully guided eight-day journey to one of Egypt's most pristine coastal destinations, combining all-inclusive five-star comfort with direct access to thriving coral reefs and vast desert landscapes.

Marsa Alam sits roughly 177 miles south of Hurghada along the Red Sea coast, placing it well away from the more commercialized resort corridors further north. The relative seclusion translates into cleaner beaches, less-crowded dive sites, and a slower pace that allows genuine relaxation.

The surrounding environment offers two contrasting experiences within a short distance of each other. Crystal-clear waters host sea turtles, dolphins, and dense reef fish populations, while the desert interior presents open dunes and silent plateaus ideal for guided exploration on quad bikes or horseback.

Accommodation is arranged at a five-star deluxe all-inclusive resort for the full seven nights, with an Elite Trip representative on call throughout the stay to handle logistics, transfers, and any unexpected needs.

Tour Highlights

Snorkel and dive among coral reefs that shelter sea turtles, dolphins, and hundreds of reef fish species in the warm Red Sea.

Witness spectacular Red Sea sunsets from a beachfront resort, where the sky transitions through pink, orange, and deep violet over calm waters.

Explore the surrounding desert by quad bike or horseback, crossing open dunes in one of Egypt's most ancient landscapes.

Stay seven nights at a five-star deluxe all-inclusive resort featuring infinity pools, spa facilities, and beachfront dining.

Round-trip direct flights to Egypt are included, with airport meet-and-greet service and a private air-conditioned vehicle transfer to Marsa Alam.

A dedicated Elite Trip representative remains available throughout your stay for assistance, feedback collection, and departure coordination.

Enjoy authentic Egyptian cuisine alongside fresh Red Sea seafood through the resort's all-inclusive dining program.

Itinerary Overview

1
Arrival at Hurghada Airport and Transfer to Marsa Alam

An Elite Trip representative meets you at Hurghada International Airport with a name board, assists with arrival procedures and luggage, then escorts you aboard a modern air-conditioned vehicle for the approximately three-hour drive south to Marsa Alam. Upon arrival at the resort, the representative assists with check-in formalities.

2
Days 2 to 3: Settle In and Explore the Reef

Use the first full days to acclimate to the resort and begin exploring the Red Sea at your own pace. Snorkeling directly from the beach or arranging a guided dive excursion to nearby reef sites are the most popular ways to start discovering the marine environment.

3
Days 4 to 5: Desert Excursions and Beach Relaxation

Venture into the desert interior for a guided quad bike ride or a horseback tour across the dunes, returning to the resort in time for a beachfront sunset. Alternate days can be spent at the infinity pool, in the spa, or on additional water-based activities.

4
Days 6 to 7: Leisure, Dolphin Encounters, and Final Experiences

Spend the remaining days at your preferred rhythm, whether that means returning to favorite dive sites, enjoying resort amenities, or joining a guided boat excursion in search of dolphins. On Day 7, the Elite Trip call center may contact you to gather feedback and confirm departure logistics.

5
Day 8: Resort Checkout and Return Transfer to Hurghada Airport

The Elite Trip representative collects you from the resort lobby and drives you back to Hurghada Airport in time for your return flight. The representative remains present until all departure procedures are completed.
