Fantastic, Unique Experience!
I can't help but express how phenomenal the experience was. The desert landscapes were breathtaking, and the night sky was simply magical. Our guide, Adham, played a key role in making this adventure unforgettable. His knowledge of the desert and the stars added a special touch to the journey. As the sun set and the stars emerged, Adham’s insights into astronomy added a fascinating dimension to the experience. He skillfully guided us through the constellations, sharing interesting tidbits about the night sky. It was a mesmerising experience lying under the stars in the serene desert. In conclusion, the jeep safari desert star gazing adventure was truly fantastic, offering a perfect blend of excitement and natural beauty. If you're looking for a memorable desert experience, this journey is highly recommended. The night sky will leave you in awe, and the desert landscapes will etch themselves into your memory.

Wow
Incredible !! One of the best trips we have been on in our entire time travelling. We had done star gazing in Mauritius , but something about this trip we just loved. It was a last minute decision to book and sooo glad we did. Abu the guide on the bus was knowledgable and funny and friendly and all the staff were great actually! Sorry did not catch all of your names but your friendliness makes us want to come back to Egypt. Was great to learn a bit of the culture , dinner was lovely , star gazing and sunset just takes your breathe away. Little bits like tea served and dinner together just made it a cultural experience. Everyone so friendly. Would 100% book again and recommend to all

racist tour
The tour itself is very well organized. Activities, the sunset watcing, camel riding, star watching are good. Egypt is beautiful. Howerever the guide himself is rasit. The whole tour is maily in German, bit English. His attitude is rude to me and my son . Destroyed my trip and my whole impresdion of Egypt.

Unexpectedly great trip
It was very a very memorable trip. Our guide Abu was very funny, entertaining and knowledgable. We rode on a huge custom offroad bus. The ride on this bus is actually quite good considering you're going offroad. It sunset and night sky is also something you won't forget.

Leuke ervaring
Jeeptocht was avontuurlijk en de zonsondergang prachtig! Nogal grote groep wel en daardoor niet zo persoonlijk. Boeiende uitleg over de sterren en leuk telescoopkijken

Ubehageligt farlig kørsel men allersmukkeste ørkenoplevelse
Jeep turen var skrækkelig. Blev kørt offRoad ud over sandbjerge i vild fart. Ellers smukkeste aften!

DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY
One of the most terrifying experiences I’ve ever had. The excursion itself was ok, we looked at the stars, we had food, the presenter showing us the constellations was very knowledgable. However at the end of the tour my son needed the toilet which meant we were going to be the last to get on the safari bus, they told us it was full and we had to get in a keep. There were 3 guys in the front, me and my son, a woman from Wales who they had also sent who was acting extremely odd, we had seen her exchanging numbers with the driver earlier and she had told us several different stories throughout the day which didn’t add up about why she was travelling alone and how frequently she visited Egypt. Anyway I don’t know if this is relevant or not, then three more Egyptian guys got in behind. As this was after a night tour it was very dark and around 9pm. We started following the safari bus down the dirt track for a while, then all of a sudden the driver turned off road into the desert, started driving ridiculously fast. They turned all of the lights off, turned the music up full blast and were all jumping around dancing in their seats. The Welsh woman was joining in with them and laughing, me and my son were terrified and had no idea what was going on. We were driving further and further in the opposite direction from the safari bus to the point we couldn’t see their lights anymore. After about 15 minutes another jeep came from nowhere and started to drive alongside us. We genuinely thought we were about to be kidnapped at this point because no one explained what was happening where we were going and we we had turned off from the main track. I told my son to send his dad our location even though we had no signal just in case it would help him to locate us if we didn’t make it home. Thoughts of being attacked were going through my head thinking what the hell are they going to do to us. My son then started recording the driver, the number plate on the other vehicle and sent those to his dad. The driver saw him and told him that they were taking us to Cairo and started laughing. He then said they were just taking a short cut. After about another ten minutes they took us back to the meeting point where the bus and everyone was there already waiting. We have no idea if this was a prank,or if they had planned to do something but when they saw us sending their identities they changed their mind, either way it wasn’t funny and was actually terrifying. We cancelled all of the rest of our excursions as we didn’t feel safe going out again after that and spent most of our time in our hotel. We go back to Egypt in July and it’s completely put us off. Me and my son love off-roading but bundling us into the back of the jeep, no explanation of what’s happening, just driving off into the desert with us under those conditions was just cruel. I don’t know if the Welsh woman was just really odd but after she insisted the driver took her at her hotel and towards ours but when I made it very clear she wasn’t welcome to come with us she asked the driver to drop her off literally in the middle of nowhere. I don’t know if she was the girlfriend of one of the Egyptian guys or what but the whole thing was weird.

Not for the easily dizzied person
Most important thing is to know the car ride to the desert is complete torture. It’s a crowded Jeep and the circulation is bad. There’s no paved road to the desert, and thus the road is really bumpy. With the bad circulation and crowded environment, it’s a recipe for dizziness. I was really close to vomiting multiple times, and laid dead immediately when I got back to the hotel. The trip was made less memorable due to cloudly conditions, which leads to bad sunset and bad stars. The camel ride and village was okay at best. I think the knowledge of stars by the tour guide was pretty great, but the trip getting there is just really too difficult for me.
