A couple of questions about visiting and staying in Sharm El Sheikh:

As a Hilton Honors member, I try to stay at Hilton properties if available. I noticed that there is a Double Tree hotel in Sharm El Sheikh. What is the transportation arrangement for visitors to SSH in terms of getting from the airport to the hotel? Do most hotels have a pick up service, or is there a hotel transfer service offered by the airport itself, etc.

Also, I was reviewing the hotel website and it stated that they can book safari tours. I have been to the traditional safari countries in Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, etc.), and I am sure the safari tours on Sharm El Sheikh are not the same as those in the countries I mentioned. Does anyone know what exactly a safari tour in Sharm El Sheikh entails?

Thanks.
