Private Luxor tour from Sahl Hasheesh: do you travel via Hurghada or go directly?

From messages by 3 participants in 1 source · Last activity: 48 days ago

TL;DR

Private tours from Sahl Hasheesh normally head directly toward Safaga and Luxor rather than returning to Hurghada for a transfer. Remote-hotel surcharges are more commonly applied to group tours because collecting guests in Sahl Hasheesh requires a detour.

What the community said

For a private tour, the car is usually sent directly to your Sahl Hasheesh hotel and then continues toward Safaga and Luxor. There is normally no need to travel into central Hurghada to change vehicles.

Sahl Hasheesh – Safaga – Luxor

A surcharge of around $10 per booking for Sahl Hasheesh is generally associated with group excursions: the bus has to make a dedicated detour into the resort and then return to the main road.

$10 surcharge

Sahl Hasheesh is not directly on the Luxor road. Pickups require turning into the resort and then returning to the roundabout near Senzo Mall, which is why it may be treated as a remote hotel for shared transfers.
