The experience

This one is a walk rather than a drive: the Ottoman castle above the seafront, then the streets below it, taken slowly enough to notice the coral blocks the houses are built from and the doors and shutters that survive from the trading town.

Your guide covers the castle's role in guarding the pilgrimage crossing to Arabia, and the customs and post buildings that mark El Quseir's later life as a working port.

Highlights

  • Walking pace, not a driving circuit
  • Ottoman castle above the seafront
  • Coral-block houses and old doors
  • Customs and post buildings from the port era
