What to expect

Your guide meets you at your accommodation and drives you to the old market, where narrow alleyways open onto vendor stalls and small shops. The Al Sahaba mosque sits quietly within this maze—a moment of calm amid the energy. Expect haggling, calls from merchants, and the sensory overload typical of regional bazaars. From there, you'll climb to Farsha, where the pace slows entirely. The lounge sits elevated, offering sightlines across Sharm el-Sheikh. You'll have time to settle in, order refreshments, and watch the afternoon unfold without rushing.

Good to know

Wear comfortable shoes for market exploring. Bring cash for any purchases at market stalls. Farsha operates as a social spot—consider grabbing a drink or light snack there. Strollers work in the market, though tight passages require maneuvering.
