Stargazing trip scheduled during daylight hours LOL
Aborted our planned trip as found via hotel staff and a disappointed fellow guest that you are dropped back at hotel before it's fully dark out as it's illegal to be in the desert at night in jeeps. Booked via Get your guide, then got conflicting pick up times, originally 4pm then became 2pm for 5 hour trip. It's still light at 8:30 and we were only interested in meeting the Bedouins and recreating meeting under the stars before light pollution for our 25 year anniversary. Very disappointed. Suits people looking for dune thrills, stargazing is not possible like the photos due to light levels.

Must do when in hurghada
Great experience with very exciting tourguides. They really make it a party to join them on the trip. Arabi is very knowledgeable about the stellar system and his enthusiasm is awesome. Mustafa was a great desert driver and gave us a real thrill. Very good value for money

Nice affordable program
The climb up the hill was a little scary but not horrible glad I did it. The stars and moon were beautiful to see I thought I wouldn’t be that interested but it was nice. I only had a concern about the driver in el Gouna picking up customers. I live next to el Gouna and they have posted speeds. He hit high speeds in Elgouna and up to 95 on the dirt road coming out of the mountain . I didn’t appreciate the speed through a residential community as I drive there often and get upset at crazy drivers .., he endangered not only us but people on the roads in el Gouna . Maybe some training to both the driver and the guide who obviously knows this too .

Esperienza assolutamente incredibile!
Questa è stata un'esperienza assolutamente incredibile.
Il viaggio con un land cruiser è stato divertente! Il nostro autista Gon (John) si è assicurato che avessimo una vera esperienza nel deserto.
Essere nel deserto è solo una delle esperienze più incredibili che si possano vivere nella propria vita.
L'atmosfera era fantastica. Moussa ha un'energia così buona. Ci ha parlato della vita beduina e ha risposto a molte domande.
La parte di osservazione delle stelle è stata magnifica. Siamo stati fortunati perché le nuvole si sono schiarite e abbiamo potuto vedere così tante stelle.
Assicurati di prenderti il tempo per sdraiarti e assorbire tutto.
È stato uno dei migliori viaggi che ho fatto.
Un ringraziamento a tutto il team per l'organizzazione, per l'amore per il lavoro che svolge e per aver reso questa serata così speciale.
Deve fare mentre sei a Hurghada! ! !

Non lo rifarei
11 persone sono strette in un vecchio land cruiser, senza cinture di sicurezza, abbastanza scomode per un viaggio così lungo.
Il viaggio per arrivare al villaggio e tornare è piuttosto lungo, per lo più su un percorso di ghiaia, nessun trillo di dune, un sacco di gente nel villaggio, niente da esplorare lì, cibo nella media, il tramonto era fantastico, anche osservare le stelle era bello, giude e i villaggi litigavano ad alta voce tra loro, un tour piuttosto lungo e faticoso, che non avrei rifatto.
Questo non era un tour in "Jeep".

Average
The drive to the desert is quite long, almost 2 hours, not a comfortable ride. Camel ride and the village was not exceptional but the stars are very beautiful. And we saw the moon!

Great time
We had a really great time. The picturesque atmosphere is truely special. For the price an amazing bargain. Do note that there is a short treck up to see the sunset but is not compulsory.

A Must do experience!!
The dessert is a beautiful place to feel relaxed. Watching the sun set and laying under the stars with my husband was magical. Moussa is very knowledgeable and explained each star and bedouin life. Our second visit to Egypt, best excursion so far.
