The experience
Sharm is usually experienced as a strip of resorts, and this tour covers the town behind them. The Al Sahaba Mosque is the landmark: a large modern building in an Ottoman-influenced style, open to visitors outside prayer times.
The Heavenly Cathedral nearby is worth the stop for its painted interior, and the old market at Sharm El Maya is where the town actually shops, alongside the tourist stalls.
Your guide explains the etiquette for entering the mosque — dress, shoes, timing — and handles the practical side of the market. Modest dress with shoulders and knees covered is needed for the religious sites.
