A unique and special experience - The experience was so special and so nice All basics and luxuries were available, almost any need of objectives. Tent was spacious, beautiful and very comfortable Food was plentiful throughout the flight and added Snacks, juices, and fruit were available throughout the flight The water is snow-capped and available all the time and a very important need in the desert and summer. I was travelling with my daughter on our own and it was too safe to meet any problem The team is excellent and capable of resolving any issue you encounter The driver was very excellent and the safari was even better Arabicas were comfortable and safe The fireplace and campground with folklore and bedouin songs are memorable The house we started and ended our trip was sweet and warm and the food was very Egyptian and very beautiful A place where they took a fast-paced afternoon and adding bathrooms The overall team is excellent, the location is beautiful, the flight is special and the public atmosphere is very good throughout the flight

The BEST safari and camping experience in Egypt hands down! - Ahmed is not only an incredible host and guide, the level of quality and professionalism of his team is beyond anything in Egypt! The landscapes of the white desert are unmatched anywhere in the world and you're sure to soak in this experience in as you're guided by Ahmed :) This was the most memorable trip of 2023 for me by far and I would highly recommend Ahmed for your desert adventure!!

The gem of our trip to Egypt - Went on this tour in the middle of March with my family (my wife and 9-y.o. daughter). What a great experience and a perfect getaway from crowded Cairo: a calm and peaceful trip through one of the most beautiful natural sights we have ever seen: the Black Desert, White Desert, and Crystal Mountain. Some sandboarding and spending the night in the desert in a comfortable tent. Add to it the hospitality and great atmosphere created by Ahmed and his family, who prepared great meals and were very helpful in offering as much comfort as possible throughout the journey. This tour is a must for anyone who visits Egypt and wants to add new and different angles to take in the beauty of this country.

White Desert Experience. - This was a wonderful experience with Ahmed and his family. We toured the black desert and its formation was explained clearly to us. We then continued to Crystal mountain and finally into the White Desert. Wow! Just Wow. We enjoyed a night under the stars; we spotted Jupiter and many constellations and saw shooting stars.

The sky is full of endless stars and incredibly beautiful, breathtaking landscapes!!! - We took a tour with Ahmed from January 8-9, 2024. In the oasis of Bahariya, we were hospitably fed lunch, and after that, on the way to the place of overnight stay, we were given a tour of the main attractions of the Black, White and Aqabat desert, among which: Al-Aqabat Valley, Crystal Mountain, valley of tents. We also rode sandblocks. At sunset we reached the new white desert, where a spacious tent was waiting for us. Ahmed cooked a very delicious dinner over a campfire. We were provided with sleeping bags and warm blankets for the night. In the morning, we met a delightful sunrise among the snow-white statues, and a delicious breakfast was prepared for us. We wandered among the statues and sand for a while and towards noon we drove back to Baharia, where we were given food for the journey to Cairo. We really enjoyed the tour with Ahmed. He was polite to us, and he's really a professional Jeep driver!
