The Journey

null

Day 1: Arrival in Paradise

Arrive in Sharm El Sheikh and transfer to your coastal haven, Dahab Paradise. Watch the sun dip behind the mountains, breathe in the sea air, and settle into the slower rhythm of Dahab life.

Day 2: Blue Hole & Sunset Ride

Morning snorkelling at the world-famous Blue Hole, surrounded by coral gardens and shimmering fish. Enjoy lunch by the sea before saddling up for a sunset ride through Dahab’s golden wadis — pure, effortless freedom.

Day 3: Swim Ride & Bedouin Spirit

A full-day ride that captures the heart of Dahab. Swim with your horse in the glittering shallows, share Bedouin tea and laughter, and embrace a day filled with connection — to nature, the horses, and yourself.

Day 4: Choose Your Path

  • Option 1: Off-road adventure to the Coloured Canyons — explore dramatic plateaus and painted rocks by 4×4 and on foot.
  • Option 2: Full-day wadi ride through oasis trails and hidden valleys, discovering Dahab’s wild beauty from the saddle.

Day 5: Sunrise & Ras Abu Galum

Start the day with a sunrise gallop at Three Pools, where desert and sea meet in perfect harmony. After breakfast, take a scenic boat ride to Ras Abu Galum — an untouched coastal sanctuary. Spend the afternoon snorkelling, relaxing, or simply soaking in the stillness. Return by boat or camp beneath the stars in a rustic seaside cabin.

A relaxed final morning by the sea before check-out at midday — hearts full, faces sun-kissed, and memories made to last.
