About this experience

Why is this tour unique? Discover Ras Mohammed by Land

This is not the usual boat tour! We take you into the heart of the national park with a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to discover wonders that most tourists never see.

Our guide (who speaks Italian, English, and Spanish) will lead you through an incredible landscape, from the famous "Gate of Allah" to the Mangrove forests, and all the way to the spectacular "Earthquake Crack."

The highlight? You will be able to swim in the mineral-rich waters of the Magic Lake and snorkel from one of the park's most beautiful beaches, seeing the coral reef from a different perspective. It's the perfect option if you prefer to skip the boat or want a concentrated half-day adventure
