How water park day passes work
A day pass lets you use a hotel's aqua park for the day even if you're staying somewhere else. What is included differs from hotel to hotel: some passes include lunch and soft drinks, some only the use of the pools and slides. Some hotels only sell passes on certain days or when they are not full.
That is why we don't list one fixed offer. When you send us your date, we check which parks take day visitors, what each pass includes and the price, and we send you the options before you decide.
What a hotel aqua park usually has
Big slides usually have height or age rules, and lifeguards decide who may use them. Children should always be watched by an adult.
- Water slides of different sizes, from gentle ones to fast, steep ones
- A lazy river or a wave pool on some parks
- Shallow splash areas and small slides for young children
- Sun loungers and shade around the pools
- Food and drinks at the pool bars (included or extra, depending on the pass)
How the day can look
- Pickup from your hotel in the morning.
- Check-in at the water park with your day pass.
- A day on the slides and in the pools.
- Transfer back to your hotel in the afternoon.
Tips for a good day
- Bring water shoes: pool decks get hot in the sun.
- Use sun cream and reapply after swimming; the Egyptian sun is strong all year.
- Keep valuables at your own hotel and bring only what you need.
- From June to September, the hottest hours are around midday, so take breaks in the shade.
