Although it is a 4 hour drive from Safaga this will be worth it. Luxor is one of those spectacular sites you have to have seen once in your life.
Luxor temple, Egypt
About an hour drive north is where you will find Hurghada. This is a lively town known for its resorts. If you don’t want to go to Luxor or the Valley of the Kings we highly suggest you go to Hurghada to do your souvenir shopping and maybe visit one of the resorts. The drive to any place outside of Safaga is mesmerising. Your vehicle will go through the deserts of Egypt. Enjoy the ride, because it is a special one.
Hurghada, Egypt
At the other side of the river Nile is where you will find the Valley of the Kings. This is one to put on the itinerary if you are planning to go the Luxor. Find the most incredible graves of famous Pharaohs of Egypt. Keep in mind it is not allowed to make picture here.
Valley of the Kings, Egypt
Cruise ships dock at the Maritime Seaport of Safaga. This cruise dock has little to offer and facilities are limited. There is no cruise terminal or tourist information. Even taxis are extremely limited. Therefore we highly suggest to pre arrange transportation to ensure you will get out of the port area and to one of the attractions in the area. Read the full Safaga cruise port guide to read all about your options in this port.
