5 out of 5 - Fun tour - great chance to explore the Egyptian Desert while dune bashing, see natural landmarks, lakes and rocks. Get to ride horse or camel, sand surf and take a dip in a crisp lake. Tour operator takes care of everything making it easy, picking up from hotel and driving in air conditioned car and providing cold drinks regularly.

This was an amazing getaway from the usual Cairo sights! It was simply amazing. Our guide “Z” was attentive and ensured we had the best experience. We were able to swim in the Magic lake”, ascend a mesa, dune bash (4x4), sand board down the slopes and finally eat a delicious meal at a native camp. Plenty of water was available to us at all times.

My expectation were rather mixed for this tour and we were really surprised. Our tour guide K took good care of us but sometimes we felt he was too quiet and expecting to be asked questions rather than giving us some insight of the area and such before being asked. He helped me arrange a dinner reservation in Cairo after the tour which was just amazing, top notch service! Our 4x4 drivers were the most nice people ever, we felt safe overall and they were looking out for us all the time. They were happy to take pictures and make sure we had a blast. We had two cars for the whole group and the car we rode had some difficulty at the end of the trip to go over a bigger sand dune as it was an older Land Cruiser. So your mileage may vary depending how old or new the car, so take that into consideration. Be prepared with your tips for everything, but I can say the drivers will definitely deserve it as they drive all day for you. Going over sand dunes and driving in the dessert with the 4x4 was amazing and really fun. They take you to a mountain that has just an amazing view of the dessert and surrounding area. Be really careful with the strong winds and those cliffs. The tourist center where the waterfall is located is kind of a letdown as the waterfall is small but once you learn about how the lakes were created and how the water is channeled then you will appreciate it. Nice place to take some pictures. The tourist center has some shops and you can buy some snacks. It has an incredible view of the lake. This is where you will take the camel ride. The camel ride was disappointing especially compared to the camel ride in Giza which we did the day before. It is very very short and there are were only 2 camels and they were very temperamental. Try to get some snacks before leaving as depending on the itinerary you may be having lunch very late. After they take you to this camp were you can find some toilets and have lunch. The lunch was okay just average but very appreciated. If possible ask to do the sand surfing before lunch otherwise you will have a very short and not so nice experience as we had with a full stomach. Surfing down the dunes so full was not that great. Makes climbing back up the dunes a difficult task. In my case after the third time it was impossible to climb back up the steep dune. Overall we had a blast and this part of our Egypt trip is one we enjoyed the most. Getting there takes a couple of hours but the small bus was very comfortable and clean. You should be back in your hotel by 16:00-17:00.

It was a really nice experience to see the desert and the waterfall. The lunch was very good. For the camel ride and serving the lunch were children doing this job which I considered sad. Children should be at school, not serving tourists. I didnt see this on the other tours.

The trip is a great experience and the guides showed us a great time. The team reached out to us via whatsApp a few days before to coordinate and Kahled picked us up from the hotel the day of. It took a while to get out of Cairo and to the point where we transferred to the 4x4 and then went into the Desert / National Park. Kaled made sure that we felt comfortable the entire time and we got some great photos of the desert once we traveled out into the more remote areas in the 4x4's, then sand surfing. Overall great excursion away from Cairo.
