Saleh and Mahmoud took us around in the desert and it was a wonderful experience. They were super sweet and hospitable, made great food (after two weeks in Egypt it was well-needed ;-) and sang and played traditional bedouin music.
The desert itself is enchanting, there's nothing quite like it. When the moon set at around midnight the stars covered us like a blanket - the weather was perfect for sleeping outside.
Islam joined us in the evening around the campfire and made sure we got the best service possible. We had an amazing trip and if we had known before, we would have stayed for more than just one night. Thank you so much for your warm welcome to the desert!

Very cool tour with Islam.
We got picked up on Giza and drop out in the oasis (4h 30m). Then we had lunch and we started the adventure!
We went to the black desert viewpoint, then to a water spring were we could jump in the water. After that, we went to the crystal mountains followed by the white dessert. In the white dessert we did sandbord (didn't slide very well but it was fun) and playing around with the dunes. After we saw the sunset next to the mushroom in the new white dessert. To end the day, Islam cooked an abundant and awesome dinner with chicken, salad, fruit, potatoes, soup, etc. During dinner we saw a dessert fox (super cool). After that, we sang and danced in the fire while watching the stars. The night was clear and we could see the milky way and 3-4 shutting starts. They prepared a tend for us and we slept on the desert. Bring mosquito repellent as during the night there were some.
The next morning we woke up to see the sunrise while the guys cooked us breakfast. The meal was great again. Then we did several stops on the way out to see the mushroom, chicken, camel and the rabbit formations as well as the tent valley, and the viewpoint of the old white dessert.
The company was great, very relax tour. They never rushed us, we could do our rithm and be enjoy every second. Islam and his crued are a very friend, knowledgeable people. They replied to all our questions very nicely and created a great atmosfear. Around 10.30am we were back to the oasis what our driver drive us to Cairo. We were in our accommodation around 15.30.
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
