Islam is a fantastic guide! The experience of driving around the desert in a Land Cruiser, almost hovering across dunes at 80 km/h is absolutely wonderful. We took a one-night trip. During the day he drives you around to the black desert first and ending up in the fantastic white desert, with the beautiful formations. At night, he sets up a proper Bedouin camp and cooks a delicious meal for you.
Being under the sky watching the stars, with a fire in front of you ("The TV of the desert") is an experience that connects you with the entire Universe!
I couldn’t recommend this tour more! Islam and his brother Mohammed were absolutely amazing. This tour is really authentic and not something you want to miss while you’re in Egypt. The sceneries are breathtaking, the food is fresh and delicious and the company is even better. Book this tour without any hesitation!
I can honestly say that this is the highlight of my trip to Egypt. Reasons why is because I never been to the desert and it was my first time camping too. The skyline is beautiful at night. First time seeing the Milky Way in the sky. I think I saw at least 11 meteor showers! Love the guide that tour me to this place. Amazing guide and very accommodating. Tasty foods too. Also, beautiful sunset and sunrise!! Stayed up all night watching the stars!
We had an amazing time and experience with our driver Islam. He took us to many cool spots ans the highlight for us was definitely sleeping in the desert. At night they made the most amazing diner and we relaxed around the campfire. Sleeping under the stars in de desert is so cool! How many stars you can see is just mind-blowing.
Thanks a lot for the great experience
The whole tour was amazing. People who was in charge was really kind and hospitable. The camp where we slept first night is beautiful place and provided us accommodation with amazing food. They also allowed us to see their manners during their holiday celebration. Day two was full of adventures in black desert, crystal mountain and white desert where we also slept. The guide Islam was very hospitable all night and make very tasty dinner and another day provide us breakfast. All this was in very safe and cozy environment. During tour Islam also took us to many springs where we could swim and enjoy amazing views. Thanks for all kindness and amazing hospitality.
The White Desert is breathtaking and the two Bedouin guides we went with, Islam and Muhammad, were fantastic. They grew up in the area so they know it really well and clearly love it. They made us feel safe and took amazing care of us and grilled up a desert meal that was one of the very best things we've eaten in Egypt! We found Islam's number on TripAdvisor and Wikitravel (WhatsApp: +20 127 709 8180) and he was very responsive and professional. These deserts look like other planets and sleeping in one is such a cool experience, you must check it out if you have the time.
