What determines the price of a package tour to Hurghada, and how can I avoid overpaying?

Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 26 days ago

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.

For early-morning excursions, you can pre-order a lunch box to take with you. For currency exchange, there's an exchange point/ATM on the left side when facing the sea that accepts even small $5 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.
