Alf Leila Wa Leila Show in Hurghada with Hotel Transfers

Duration: 3–4 hours
Style: Private Tour
From, per person: $50

When the day on the Red Sea is over, Alf Leila Wa Leila, the Thousand and One Nights show, gives Hurghada an evening to remember. The complex is built like an oriental palace, and the show inside mixes history, music and dance in a way that works for guests of any age.

The program opens with a sound and light presentation that retells episodes from Egypt's long history. After that the stage fills with entertainers: Bedouin riders performing horseback acrobatics in traditional dress, belly dancers, whirling Tanoura dancers and folk musicians.

This private trip takes care of the practical side. Your driver collects you from your hotel in Hurghada in the late afternoon, takes you to the venue, and brings you back after the show, so you do not have to arrange a taxi.

The evening suits couples, families and groups of friends looking for something different from the beach. It is also an easy way to see a side of Egyptian culture that beach days rarely show. Dress casually and bring a light layer, since the desert air cools after sunset.

Questions

What will I see at the show?

The show combines a sound and light presentation on Egyptian history with live entertainment: Bedouin horse acrobatics, belly dancing, Tanoura dancing and folk music. The performers wear traditional costumes, so it is as much a feast for the eyes as for the ears.

What time does the trip start?

The trip is an evening outing, with pick-up in the late afternoon so that you reach the venue before dusk. We confirm the exact pick-up time with you when you book, because it depends on your hotel and the day's schedule.

What should I wear?

Casual, comfortable clothes are fine. Evenings can be cool in the desert, especially from late autumn to early spring, so bring a light jacket or scarf. Closed shoes are useful for walking around the grounds.

Is the show suitable for children?

Yes, it is a colorful family show with horses, costumes and music. Parts of it are loud, so very young children may want ear protection or a quiet break. Tell us who is traveling and we will plan accordingly.
