I would like to thank my brother Ibrahim for his great help. He organized a sea trip for me and also arranged a birthday party for me during the trip. This was my first time dealing with him, and of course, it won't be the last, God willing.

Amazing experience with Discover Hurghada! 🌊❤️ Everything was organized very quickly, even at the last minute. Ibrahim was incredibly kind, helpful and responsive throughout the whole booking.

We had a wonderful day at JAZ Aquaviva / Makadi Water World and the children absolutely loved it! 🥰

Thank you so much Ibrahim for your kindness and professionalism. We highly recommend Discover Hurghada and would definitely book with them again! 🇪🇬❤️

If I could give 10 stars, I would in a heartbeat!

I've booked trips and excursions in many countries, but I've rarely experienced such a high level of professionalism, honesty, and warmth.

From the initial contact to the end of our vacation in Hurghada, we received impeccable service. No matter the time of day—morning, afternoon, or late at night—the team was always available, responded immediately, and took care of every little detail. You can tell from the very first moment that guest satisfaction is their top priority.

Every single excursion was superbly organized. The ride in the luxury limousine, the transfers, the breathtaking yacht trip to the paradisiacal islands, and our unforgettable day trip to Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza were all perfectly planned. This allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our vacation.

I was particularly touched by the surprise for my son's birthday. Such thoughtful gestures can't be bought. They demonstrate the heart, attention, and passion this team puts into their work. It's moments like these that transform a wonderful vacation into a memory for a lifetime.

What impressed me most was the honesty, reliability, and transparency. No empty promises were made; every commitment was honored. Unfortunately, that's not always the case these days.

A huge thank you to the entire team! You made our family vacation truly special. I will recommend you to anyone who wants to discover Hurghada, the Red Sea, the paradise islands, or Cairo.

For me, you're not just worth five stars, but at least ten.

Thank you so much for everything. We will definitely be back!

I was very well taken care of by Discover hurghada. Great communication from Ibrahim. Friendly and attentive service throughout from all. I booked a horse riding tour and I was happy with the condition of the horses as well as the expertise of the guide Said who came with me.
I felt very safe throughout as a solo female. Mahmoud the driver was very reassuring and friendly. Hany the stable owner kindly gave me a tour of the horses as I wanted reassurance about their wellbeing.
The horses are different breeds and are well taken care of.

I really enjoyed it very much. By God, the Luxor trip was a very beautiful trip. It was the first time I saw it with such beauty. The service was excellent and the treatment was respectful. We did not waste time and we will repeat it many times on many trips. Thank you very much to you for your taste and your sweet treatment. Good luck.
