Amazing experience to Whales Valley & Wadi El Ryan
We had a wonderful experience with the excursion. Haytham (tour guide) and Hesham (driver) pick us up from our residence and then drove to Alfayoum. When we got to Alfayoum, we were greeted with traditional breakfast.(falafel sandwiches) , water, tea, and juice. We stopped along the way at the great lake for some pictures. Then we headed to the camp, change cars, and a driver to go on our 4 x 4 Safari trip headed to Valley of the Wales. Mohamed (driver) is very skilled arriving in the desert. Haytham our tour guide was very knowledgeable sharing information and also allow us free time for ourselves. He even made additional stop and shared and amazing experience with us viewing the lower wadi lake from higher point( breath taking). We then headed to Wadi Al Ryan and on the way, we stopped by Quaroon lake, and saw the waterfall. Towards the end of the trip, we headed back to the camp for Bedouin lunch and then headed back to Cairo.
It was an amazing experience and highly recommended

Viaje maravilloso....
Viaje maravilloso. Vistas educativas e increíbles. Un día largo y caluroso en el desierto, pero nuestro guía Haisam nos cuidó bien y lo hizo muy interesante.

Rápidos y buenos comunicadores
Ha sido genial. Conductor y guía para nosotras solas. Me ha encantado la forma de explicar de Ahmed, dejándonos tiempo para nosotras. Muy recomendable.

A day at the ocean through the desert!
We got interested to wadi al -hitan through a tv documentary but we could never imagine to get in love to this place thanks to the tour guide delivered by Mahmoud. We had great smiles and got enriched by a lot of history. We cannot forget also the funny 4x4 trip in the desert which contributed to this amazing experience.

Viaje increíble gracias a Hamad y Ahmed
Antes de venir a El Cairo, el oasis de Fayum era uno de los lugares que más queríamos ver. Afortunadamente, tuvimos con nosotros a un gran conductor, Ahmed Hassan, y a un gran guía turístico, Hamad Abu Rakika, lo que hizo que la experiencia fuera mejor de lo que esperábamos.
Hamad nos ayudó a personalizar el tour para pasar más tiempo en los lugares que más queríamos ver. Estuvo con nosotros en cada paso ayudándonos a organizar todo lo que necesitábamos. Más allá de personalizar el programa, también se aseguró de que nuestro almuerzo fuera vegano a petición nuestra y fue una de las mejores comidas que probamos en Egipto. Además de todo esto, nos hizo fotos en todos los lugares que visitamos y ¡quedaron perfectas! Gracias a él escuchamos música increíble de artistas egipcios. Estamos agradecidos por su paciencia y amabilidad.
Durante el regreso, incluso organizaron un punto de llegada diferente en el centro de El Cairo, aunque nuestro punto de recogida estaba en Guiza. Gracias a Ahmed, todo fue un trayecto muy fluido y cómodo.
Si vais a reservar este tour, sin duda os sugeriríamos hacerlo con Ahmed y Hamad.

Valley of the Whales! 🐳
Hamad Sayed took us everywhere we wanted to see! He was friendly and we were provided with water, snacks and lunch. The white desert was beautiful and valley of the whales was an incredible thing to see! The jeep ride through the sand dunes was a thrill that we really enjoyed as well! They accommodated around our changed flight, helped with our bags and dropped us off at our hotel.

Wadi Hitan, Valley of the Whales in El Fayoum
Had a wonderful time with Hamad Sayed as our guide for day tour to Wadi Hitan and Valley of the Whales. Hamad and his driver greeted us at the airport for our pickup and even accommodated our delayed flight arrival to still do the tour later in the day. The highlight was riding the sand dunes in the Toyota Land Cruiser blasting Bedouin music. Phenomenal experience and seeing whale fossils also very cool. Highly recommend booking this tour!

Desert, Dunes, Whales, and Waterfalls!
One of the best tours I’ve experienced in years! But please be cautioned if you are prone to motion sickness or cannot tolerate vehicular risk. Yes, you see whale skeletons in the desert, Lake Qarun, and a pretty albeit polluted waterfall. Yes, you get served a delightful meal in a desert camp (glamp) sight while feral cats wait to pick through your leftovers. But by far the most exciting part of this tour for me was the vehicle safari. Windy, bumpy, not for the faint of heart, but riding in the back while an experienced driver surfs a Land Cruiser down dunes is not an experience to be missed. I also got a chance to skate surf down a dune at the end. Accept it: you will probably wipe out. 😊
My guide was Fares and my drivers were Yusuf and Mohammed. Thanks guys!

El Fayoum Day Trip with Abo Rakika
I had an amazing experience on my day trip to El Fayoum. Abo Rakika, my guide, was on time for pickup, took his time to explain all the sites to me, and is an amazing photographer haha. I enjoyed every step of the way and would highly highly recomment him to anyone looking to go on a similar trip.
