At the top, great organization - A very nice experience with a tailor-made organization for a week thanks to Hoda: pyramids, museum, old Cairo, the 2 days in the desert, saqqara and all transfers, until the night train to Luxor on the last day. Concentrate at the top. Guides Ahmed and Al Ghalban were perfect: good humor, kindness and humor. And the very professional drivers. Very good value for money. I recommend.

best adventure - We chose this tour because we wanted an adventure and what came out of it was memories that we will cherish forever. Everyone was welcoming, professional and friendly. We had the best guide we could ever ask for, Osama. He was kind and had always so many facts to share! We could feel that he is passionate about his work and transmitting his love for egyptology. We had the chance to see so many landscapes that were out of this world. Our bedouin driver Dohy was so friendly and cooked us a wonderful meal when we arrived in our camp in the white desert. Our adventure was perfect and everything was well organized. We could bath in a natural oasis in the desert (hot spring), see the blackest stones in the black desert and the natural crystals in the crystal mountains. We even did sand sandboarding which felt like out of a dream. I couldn’t recommend a better tour than this one! If you are thriving for adventure you are on the right place.

Great experience - Ezzat was extremely helpful in organising our tours. Once I had booked this overnight camping trip Ezzat also helped to organise our 3 night Nile tour. He was always available to help online and able to change or adapt anything we needed. It was great to have that support prior to our holiday. Our Nile cruise guide Mansour and Desert camp guide Mo were great, very informative and fun. Great tours and a great tour company!

Incredible sunset and sunrise in the white desert - We enjoyed a trip full of incredible scenery. Traverse a unique place like the white desert in 4x4, camp there and spend the night in the moonlight has been an unforgettable experience. We were joined by Omar Saleh, a lovely boy, always attentive so that we enjoyed our trip to the fullest. The desert boys are wonderful! They took us by Jeep, prepared camp, fire, dinner and enlivened the night with music from their land. I would definitely recommend this adventure!

A journey of dreams - The tour was spectacular, it was an unforgettable experience that we would repeat again. The Bedouins were super nice and our guide Kamalito made us enjoy the experience. I highly recommend it if you want to take a not so touristic and very nice experience

Black and white desert - Great desert, we visited with the best guide we have had in Egypt, Mohamed. It made us feel at home as well as helping us with anything we needed. Highly recommended. Great person and great professional. If we come back, we'll ask about him.

An amazing experience - Our experience at the oasis and in the desert was incredible from start to finish. Thanks to Hoda for the organization which was very simple and easy by Whatsapp, it was responsive and everything was explained very well. Thanks to Ahmad our driver in the desert for his kindness, his perfect mastery of the 4x4 (our Wine Diesel) and his delicious cuisine. We felt like kings. And thank you to Al-ghalban, our guide, who took care of us at every moment. Al-ghalban gave us a lot of explanations about the black and white deserts, about the oasis but not that... we shared real discussions about our different cultures, our lifestyles, etc. He made sure at all times that we lacked everything. We recommend anyone who wants to experience this experience to visit Sun Pyramids Tours. See you soon, I hope

El Fayoum camping trip - I went on an overnight camping trip to the el Fayoum oasis and valley of the whales, Magic Lake and Egypt’s only waterfalls. My guide Mohamed Abdelrhaman was brilliant, sharing all his knowledge of Egyptian history and also discussing modern day culture. The most fun part for me was crazy 4x4 driving in the dunes. The camping was actually a lovely pod with bathroom, and beautiful views of the desert and the lake in the distance. I felt safe as a woman travelling on my own, and would highly recommend this trip, and Moe as a guide.

Kamalito was amazing! - 5 out of 5 My guide, Kamalito, took me on one of the most amazing adventures of my life. The black and white desert are like something from another world. And the stars at night are incredible. Kamalito made sure I saw the best spots and enjoyed the experience fully. Highly recommend this tour and ask for him!
