TL;DR
Tour price depends on travel month, group composition, departure city, and trip length, and currency swings can push costs up by as much as 1.5x. It also helps to pre-order a lunch box for early excursions and know where to exchange small dollar bills.

Package tour prices to Hurghada are unpredictable — there's no reliable way to know in advance if a trip will get cheaper or more expensive. A sudden jump in the exchange rate can push tour costs up by as much as 1.5x, so it's risky to delay booking too long hoping for a price drop.
