0.0 (0 reviews)
Discover the raw, untouched beauty of Ras Mohamed National Park on a private VIP overland safari. Snorkel in world-renowned coral reefs, witness the unique mangrove forests, and swim in the therapeutic waters of the Magic Lake.

Overview

Embark on an exclusive private overland expedition to Ras Mohamed National Park, the crown jewel of the Red Sea. Your day begins with a VIP pickup from your Sharm El Sheikh resort in a luxury private vehicle. As you enter through the iconic Allah's Gate—a monumental stone structure designed to resemble the name of God—you will instantly feel the transition from the resort city to a pristine desert wilderness. Your expert private guide will lead you to the park’s most spectacular coastal lookouts, including the dramatic Shark Observatory, where the desert cliffs plunge vertically into the deep blue sea. Throughout the day, you will explore unique ecological wonders that make this park globally significant. Walk through the ancient mangrove channels, which act as natural filtration systems and vital nurseries for marine life, and witness the geological fissures created by historic earthquakes. You will dive into the crystal-clear waters of Yolanda Bay and Earth's most vibrant coral gardens, teeming with thousands of exotic fish species. The journey culminates at the mystical Magic Lake, a shallow lagoon known for its changing water colors and high mineral content, where you can swim and enjoy a traditional, freshly prepared gourmet lunch overlooking the Red Sea before returning in comfort to your hotel.

FAQ

Is snorkeling equipment provided, or should I bring my own?
You are welcome to bring your own snorkeling gear. If you don't have any, your private guide will stop at a high-quality rental shop before entering the park where you can rent clean, professional gear for a nominal fee.
Why is the Magic Lake called 'Magic'?
The lake gets its name because its mineral-rich waters change color throughout the day, shifting from deep turquoise to emerald green based on the sun's position. Local Bedouin legends also attribute healing and wish-granting properties to its waters.
Is this tour suitable for non-swimmers?
Yes! The overland expedition offers breathtaking desert landscapes, historical geological cracks, and the beautiful Magic Lake, which has shallow, calm areas. Life jackets can be rented, and our guide is always present to assist.
