Luxor is definitely closer than their Hurghada. From SHES you can only fly to Luxor by plane. The distance to Cairo from these resorts is approximately the same. I have never heard of Mohammed Mountain. Perhaps we are talking about the mountain of Moses? Only from Sharm El Sheikh

To Cairo and the Nile, and also to the mountain of Moses, to Jerusalem, Petra - closer from Sharm. Closer to Luxor from Hurghada. Attention in Egypt is primarily the sea itself, and its inhabitants!!! Take masks, snorkels, fins.

and slippers with rubber soles. This is for those who walk on the bottom with their feet... :-) if you don't want to step on a small or very large black hedgehog. It is better to snorkel right away at high tide and swim through the corals if possible and enjoy the coral coast at depth. Crimea in terms of the beach is better than Sharm El Sheikh and much more picturesque with its nature, landscapes, sights....

Hurghada is the continental part of Egypt, Sharm is the Sinai Peninsula. Luxor on the continent, Cairo and Alexandria north of the resorts, everything else is not Sinai. BUT, one piece of advice that I tell everyone who rides for the first time. Don't treat your first trip as your last. Don't try to be everywhere on your first trip. One excursion for a week trip is optimal.

It is better to go to Jerusalem and Petra from Taba, if from Sharm, then it is tiring. Cairo, Luxor and El Gouna are closer from Hurghada.

In addition to the above, there are about 100 pyramids in Egypt, almost a dozen of them are higher than 100 meters, unfortunately they are inaccessible or inaccessible to the average tourist. But the unique temples in Abu Simbel are quite accessible. in Essna, Edfu, a temple on the island of Philae, a good botanical garden on the Nile island in Aswan. You can see the Aswan Dam and Lake Nasr. One "but": all this is available if you take a ticket with a cruise on the Nile.
