Hurghada was fun and exciting. We did scuba diving, snorkeling etc. I was with another friend and we joined to tours. Went to Luxor and Cairo. Overall experience was amazing. I would definitely recommend

I live and work here, personally I really love this place, I feel at home here, though the men are as they are, you definitely have to be careful, but I never once felt threatened or unsafe.

It always feels safe. The sellers are always talking much but this will never change. But we need to be passionate because most of them really don't have enough money for their family. The nice thing is you can be sure to have every day sunshine

i love hurghada, i think is very chaotic but i feel safe. People try to talk with you every time and try to sell you something but nothing to worry about. Searching for taxi taxis can be a bit stressful because they insist on accepting the fare.

It's somehow safe, the safest so far amongst everywhere I've been to... It's a small town, so it's easy to track anything happens, and recently, some teen girls and little boys get kidnapped, but I've heard of that 3-4 times life long.

Hurghada is an extremely safe city. I've been living here since 1996, and I've never felt scared about my safety or well-being. I can take a walk on my own at 4 am and no one bother or harm me. It's a very safe a fun town to live in.
