You’ll also find plenty of activities to try at Makadi Bay, from beach sports to watersports. Have a go at jet skiing, windsurfing, paragliding or rent a pedalo.

Golfing is equally popular, and you’ll find a choice of different golf courses including a 72-par championship course. You can explore the surrounding desert and sand dunes with a camel trek or on horseback, take a boat trip along the coast or take a local excursion or day trip to some of the surrounding towns or attractions.

Top attractions
Thanks to its warm weather and year-round warm seas, as well as its spectacular underwater life, the Red Sea is one of the best places in the world for diving. Anyone looking to try it for the first time will find the iDive Diving Centre offers PADI diving courses, for beginners who want to explore beneath the waves.
If you’re not keen on trying scuba diving, one of the best things to do in Makadi Bay is the Sinbad Submarine Tour. This underwater tour takes 44 passengers under the sea for a 45 minutes experience some of the colourful life in the Red Sea. Thanks to panoramic windows, you can get excellent views of the fish, rays and other marine life.
Finally, one of the top day trips for anyone visiting the area around Hurghada is a visit to Luxor. The city, located on the site of the ancient city of Thebes, is a must for anyone interested in Egyptian history. A guided tour includes a visit to Karnak Temple and the Hypostyle Hall, the huge statues of Amenhotep III and the famous Valley of Kings. It may also include a stop at Hatshepsut Temple.

Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023
At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.
For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
