We added a couple of optional activities beyond Ras Um Sid public viewpoint and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Quad biking / desert safari with Bedouin dinner alone was worth the trip, but combined with Sharm el Sheikh Old Town streets this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.

Sharm El Sheikh is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Colored Canyon & St. Catherine's Monastery tour. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.
