Esperienza fantastica
Cinque stelle? Sarebbero decisamente poche.
Una delle giornate più belle del mio viaggio in Egitto, e una grandissima parte del merito va a Bassem e Ahmed.
Il Fayoum è già di per sé spettacolare: deserto, dune, lago, Wadi El Rayan, sandboarding e paesaggi che cambiano completamente nel giro di pochi chilometri. Ma quello che ha reso davvero speciale l’esperienza sono state le persone con cui l’ho vissuta.
Bassem parla un italiano praticamente perfetto, cosa che rende tutto molto più semplice e soprattutto permette di andare oltre le solite spiegazioni da tour. È preparato, paziente, disponibile e riesce a raccontarti i posti senza mai dare l’impressione di recitare una lezione imparata a memoria. E poi è simpaticissimo: dopo poco più che una guida sembra una persona con cui stai passando una giornata tra amici.
Ahmed è stato altrettanto fantastico: cordiale, paziente, sempre sorridente e attento a ogni esigenza. Nessuna fretta, nessuna pressione, sempre disponibili a fermarsi, spiegare, fare una foto o semplicemente godersi il posto.
Bellissimo il sandboarding sulle dune, stupendi i panorami intorno al lago e a Wadi El Rayan, e ottimo anche il pranzo finale a base di pesce, che ha chiuso perfettamente la giornata.
La cosa che ho apprezzato maggiormente è stata proprio l’atmosfera: mai la sensazione di essere uno dei tanti turisti trascinati da una tappa all’altra. Tutto è stato vissuto con calma, leggerezza, cordialità e tante risate.
Se potessi dare 10 stelle ne darei 11. Cinque sono davvero troppo poche.
Grazie Bassem e Ahmed: quando ripenserò al Fayoum, inevitabilmente ripenserò anche a voi. Consigliatissimi, senza alcun dubbio

A decent way to add some desert fun to a Cairo trip
Booked this as our more adventurous day for our honeymoon! I enjoyed getting to see the desert. Sandboarding is so much fun going down but very much NOT fun climbing back up the steep hot sand dune and I scrapped up my wrist & ankle pretty bad on the first slide down. We also paid extra to do the 4x4 dune ride through the desert. It was an expensive add on of $50 for two and wasn’t as fast or crazy a ride as I was expecting but it was a far more interesting way to get around between locations with a couple cool moments. Our guide Essam told us info about each of the places we visited and took photos and videos for us.
Unfortunately my husband and I seem to both have caught a cold on our flight over so neither of us were feeling very well and we ended the tour early so we missed the boat ride and pottery town but I appreciated Essam understanding and taking us back early.

Unforgettable Experience !
At first, I thought I would be joining a group, but it turned out to be a private tour! Loved it! I had such a great day in Al Fayyum with Iman and Ahmed. They were such super lovely, kind, warm-hearted and easy-going people. I felt comfortable with them from the very beginning, and they made the whole day feel relaxed and enjoyable.
They were always looking out for me and really cared about my comfort, safety and overall experience. They were super attentive, helpful and genuinely friendly. They wanted me to have the best possible experience.
It was so sweet and cute of Iman to take so many photos of me throughout the day. That was such a lovely little detail :)
Al Fayum itself is absolutely beautiful and definitely a place you have to see when you’re in Egypt.
The views are amazing, people are lovely, and the whole area has such a special atmosphere. I also booked the extra safari to Magic Lake, which I would definitely recommend to everyone! It was such a fun experience and definitely worth adding to the tour. I would do this at the very end, after sandboarding etc so you can jump into the water and go for a swim afterwards :D
The safari is not included in the tour price, so if you’d like to do it, just let your tour guide know in advance :)
The only thing I didn’t really like was that we couldn’t stay longer on the Felucca. I would have really enjoyed spending more time on the boat and just relaxing there. We had to leave because the safari driver was waiting for us. I understand that I booked the safari spontaneously, but I still think this could have been planned a little better so we could enjoy the Felucca for a bit longer…It’s not something you get to experience every day, so I would have preferred to have more time there!
I would honestly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt.
Even though I’ve done this tour before, I would definitely do it again on my next trip :D
You can never get enough of Al Fayyum…

we a Ponza in famiglia
Siamo appena tornati da un lungo weekend a Ponza e il B&B Oasi è stato una bellissima sorpresa! Le camere sono dotate di ogni comfort e la pulizia è davvero eccezionale. La colazione era buonissima, ricca di frutta fresca, dolci fatti in casa e uno yogurt di loro produzione fantastico. Un grazie speciale a Giuseppe e a sua mamma Silvia per la splendida accoglienza: ci hanno fatto sentire come a casa.
