Highlight of our trip to Egypt - Probably one of the best days of my life. Aeadiy is a very nice, bright guide and it was very funny with him. We had a lot of fun sandboarding and the nature was breathtaking. The highlight was probably sleeping under the most beautiful starry sky I have ever seen!”

The best trip in entire Egypt plan - It was a trip beyond my imagination. This was undisputedly the best part in entire Egypt trip. The host Mr. Amir and his entire group was so hospitable and well mannered. Everything was well organised, food was awesome, the van which drove us from Cairo to the spot and the driver Mr. Mohammed was awesome. Wish to do the trip very soon. Souvik India

Experience to do absolutely - It was a fantastic experience after two days of chaos in Cairo, here we relaxed and connected with nature but above all we had fun, our momo guide was fantastic very professional, kind and nice explained everything. The places we visited that felt like being on another planet I was fascinated by everything, we also met new people who came from different parts of the world who were part of this wonderful experience. An experience that I will definitely do again and thank all the staff we were really good they did not miss anything from water to food.

Safari in the white desert. - The views were amazing. We visited the black and the white desert and the crystal mountain. The views were amazing. Our Guide Isam was the best. He was very professional, an excellent driver and a great chef. The food at the camp site was delicious. The sunset was the best! Later, the views of the stars and the moon was just unbelievable. It was a perfect safari into desert!

Must-attend tours when you come to Egypt - In the morning of the first day, we traveled from Cairo to Bahareya Oasis. In the afternoon, we go from the Black Desert to Mineral Springs (cold), Crystal Mountain to Agabat Valley, White Desert to Desert Camp. It's a long journey, so you should be prepared. The signal was barely connected to the Orange SIM card I bought at Cairo International Airport, but the others were out of range. It was a great experience to see the exquisite Egyptian food prepared by Bedouin guides and the perfect starry sky. * It is cold in the desert at night, so you should bring warm clothes and toilet paper. On the second day, we had breakfast and then moved to Cairo, leaning on the mineral springs (heat). We arrived at Cairo's Tahrir Square around 3pm. (You can get off at Giza too.)

It was a priceless experience. - I was able to enjoy the vast nature of the Black Desert and White Desert. The contrast between the desert and the perfect starry sky was especially impressive.

Breathtaking views, awe inspiring vistas. - If you want to escape the hustle and bustle and visit extreme yet beautiful and vast deserts, this is the tour for you. We had pick up and drop off in minibus as a family of 4 to our Hotel which was convenient. I don’t want to say too much but if you love nature and wish to see the stars in the night sky, book this tour. Food was great throughout. My only major concern was the toilet facilities en route to the desert was absolutely shocking to say the least. I have never seen filthier toilets in my life. Please clean the toilets once a day with bleach. This includes the service stop and the villa in Bahariya. Otherwise, be prepared to do the business out in the open in the desert (no toilets there!!). Book it. You won’t regret it.

Wonderful - Once you begin the tour (it takes a while to get there) this tour is fantastic. It was a once in a lifetime experience to sleep under the stars (if you want) and this should not be missed. Everything was beautiful.
