Coloured Canyon

posted by blaurenzi on 21 March 2011 at 10:01

I wasn't too impressed at having to start the day at the crack of dawn but I have to say the canyon is pretty special. Stunning colours, an amazing walk, it looks like Gaudi designed the shapes or something in some places! You really do want to go early, it gets hot and busy as the sun rises.

It's quite a long way north of sharm but if you're on an excursion you can just sleep til you arrive!

Coloured Canyon Tour

posted by vmosser on 4 February 2011 at 10:41

We decided to head out of Sharm for the day and see the natural sight of the coloured canyon. We went as part of a tour which was great as everything was arranged for us, and we even got taken to a Bedouin site too which was interesting and beautiful. The canyon is stunning, one of the best places i've ever been to and would recommend going to anyone who goes on holiday in Sharm El Sheikh.

where, when, how, web
Pick up from hotel, we drove north for a few hours to get there

It's a pretty early start but as you start you feel the mercury rising you realise it's a good plan. The canyon is gorgeous, the rocks have such beautiful colours, and our guide was great, pointing out little bit we might miss overhead etc. Not cheap but you do also get to go to a different beach/local market which is nice to cool down.

pick up/drop off from hotel, we booked online and then called to arrange pickup

My man and me took a day trip to the coloured canyons and it was awesome. the rocks are so maky different colours and candy striped. if your guide is good, like ours, he'll point out the best bits you might miss if you go alone. og and definitely go early, we went quite late and so were walking when it was really hot. enjoyable, but sweaty!

you can get there by driving i guess, it's quite a way north of sharm, but there are so many day trips on offer.
