The final price might differ. This is a cost estimation based on our previous trips to Dahab. Note that some prices might differ. Currently, there is an exceptional exchange rate for EUR to EGP (Egyptian currency). Please be aware that the final cost might differ depending on airplane ticket cost, food, SIM card, insurance, etc. And therefore, you might be asked to pay some more. We do not anticipate that, and we do not want that, but this is absolutely beyond our control.
Only partial returns are possible. If we buy a plane ticket for you or reserve a hotel in your name, we will not be able to refund those costs to you!
Plane tickets
You can arrange plane tickets to the Sharm El-Sheikh (SSH) airport on your own, or fly with us from KTW (Katowice, Poland). If you choose to fly with us, we will take care about organizing your plane tickets.
Doesn't matter what option you choose; we can handle the airport-hotel transfer. The price of such service is around 20 EUR, and it was already mentioned in the table above.
Plane tickets from Katowice cost (the price and availability are subject to change):
- 1900 PLN for a week
- 2100 PLN for two weeks
You will pay for hotel and diving at the reception at the end of your stay.
Note that the airplane tickets constitute half of the price. If you stay for two or three weeks, the price will not increase that much. Also, you can receive equipment rental and diving package discounts for longer stays.
