Sharm El Sheikh is one of the best-value winter-sun holidays you can take from the UK. Here’s a realistic 2026 breakdown (prices vary by season and how early you book, so treat these as guides, not quotes).
Return charter/package flights from the UK typically range from around £150–£300 off-peak to £350–£500+ in school holidays. Booking early and travelling in shoulder season keeps costs down.
Sharm’s strength is the all-inclusive: a week’s package (flights + hotel) can start from roughly £350–£500 per person at quieter times. Four- and five-star resorts here cost far less than comparable hotels in Europe.
Budget nothing for the free Sinai-only stamp, or US$30 (about £24) for the full e-Visa.
Meals and drinks outside all-inclusive are inexpensive; dinner for two is often £15–£30. Taxis are cheap (agree the fare first), and the Old Market is for haggling.
Tip: booking excursions with a licensed local operator is usually cheaper than the hotel desk — with insured boats and professional guides.
Travel shoulder season, choose all-inclusive, agree taxi fares up front, and book tours locally.
