What excursions would you recommend for a family with small children? We swam on a submarine, I think maybe there is something else interesting and not too tiring?
Is it worth considering a tour of Paradise Island? What can you say about the trip to Luxor - the hard way?
Friends please guide!
ps children are small 4.5 years old ...

To Luxor with a 4 year old?
Let me see.
6 hours one way.
Then walk around the temple complexes.
Then swim across the Nile to the Valley of the Kings.
Then go to the tombs there.
Then at least two shops where papyri, oils or textiles with leather will soar for you.
Then 6 hours back.
Don't even know.
Any sea excursion to the islands with diving or El Gouna will be easier than Luxor.

Luxor is not for small children., hard. The sea trip is the most suitable.

At 4 years old, a child is not able to appreciate Luxor. Unless to go for yourself, if the children are not capricious endure the heat and the road.

And it’s also worth thinking about those people who will be next to you for these 6 hours, when your children get tired of such a long journey.

ollenka, thank you. And then the majority think only about how the children will endure the flight-trip-excursion, but about those who are nearby, no, no.

Of course, your children are always properly brought up and do not interfere with anyone, it is only strangers who are always ill-mannered and interfere :)
Children at 4.5 years old will be drummed and pyramids and everything else, incl. boat. When the child is 7 years old, he will not remember anything he saw.

kolyan_cat - nothing personal, but you are wrong! Don't generalize.)
Families are different and children are different too.

My little one and I went to Luxor, evening safari and El Gouna when she was almost 5. Of course, we went to Luxor for ourselves, because it is not known when we will get to Hurghada. But there is a lot of walking there, and at the end of November it was too hot to pull on your hands. And the road was ok. In El Gouna it is interesting and unobtrusive, I even swam on a tablet, I liked it. I saw that at that age they already swim with masks.

Tigrusik2006 thank you very much for the information! Now I'm at least orientated where to go during a two-week vacation.

elenka0, it only seems so to you. Your child is the center of your universe, but not of another person. just like my child is only my universe. Realistically, why torture a child with tiresome excursions? Luxor is tiring even for an adult. Take some excursion on a boat with a transparent bottom and do not look for adventures. On long excursions it is necessary to go without small children

We went to Luxor when the child was exactly 6 years old, she behaved on the bus better than many 13-year-olds who whined and complained about the heat, by the way, she remembers everything very well, about excursions, about descending into the tombs. But I remember the flight with horror, when a 3-year-old screaming child was sitting behind and with all the dope kicked his legs into a chair, and our youngest could not even think of behaving like that ... Everything is individual, if the children are adequate, then why not?

Lena9791 well, at least someone understands me) And then it feels like I have to prove my words that the children are adequate and behave very calmly and quietly. There was never screaming...crying...loud talking...during trips/flights. So brought up + we know how to captivate them and keep them interesting and useful things while traveling (this is not a game on the phone)))) Well, okay. The topic is about excursions.
I am more and more inclined towards sea excursions and the aquarium - in question - I read reviews.

You can go to the dolphinarium. Located in Makadi. The path is short and not difficult for children. The performance lasts an hour. Dolphins, seals, sea lion perform. The child will be delighted. How to buy a trip I will write in a personal, leave the coordinates for communication.

My opinion is that long excursions like Luxor or Cairo are pointless for such a small child. He still won't understand or remember anything! Best of all, excursions to nearby islands, to El Gouna, bathyscaphe, dolphinarium.

By the way, in El Gouna there is a small aquarium with fish, it will be interesting for children there and in general to swim along the canals on a boat, probably, too.
And about children, they are all different. And their development too! Some are blinkered and at the age of 7 they will see little besides their grandmother’s garden, others parents take with them everywhere on vacation, and I think that there are a majority of such parents on this site.
Although they poke me here that I stick out and praise my grandchildren, but what can I say if she is less than 7 years old, but here she is returning from Dragobrat, where she rode a skyboard; she is snorkeling in Egypt. And all because with their parents everywhere from infancy, at 8 months they went to Egypt.
And yet, look for a hotel with a good Kids Club and children's animators, where you can leave your child for a while to relax yourself.

With us on the yacht was a family of divers. The oldest girl is 7 years old. She herself (dad did not urge) went to the briefing, practically put on the balloons herself and, without adults, climbed into the water. Mom watched from the board of the yacht, and dad at that time was engaged in the younger.
Well, in our company there was a boy of 9 years. He was constantly naughty, constantly "mom give me a mobile phone" and "mom I'm bored." Until the good friends of the mother gave the child a sleeping pill for motion sickness and he fell asleep. The long-awaited 40 minutes of silence.
