The sun slides low over the Red Sea as you mount a steady horse or a patient camel, the wind pushing warm salt across your face and the desert opening like a vast, living page. For two hours you'll move between two clear characters of Egypt's eastern coast: the bleached, wind-sculpted desert and the narrow band of beach where the tide dares you closer to the surf. Guides lead small groups from a nearby stable after hotel pickup, and the animals—well-trained and calm—set the pace whether you're a first-timer or an experienced rider.
