Finding Peace in the White Desert

This tour gave me a much-needed break from the busy city life. The White Desert's silence was a powerful reminder of nature's beauty. Our guide took us to a stunning lookout point where the rocks looked like they had been sculpted by the hands of time. Watching the sunset in this otherworldly place was a spiritual moment. Big thanks to the team for their excellent service and attention to detail. It made the experience unforgettable.

A Magical Night Under the Desert Stars

Spending a night in the White Desert felt like stepping into another world. I had imagined it as a simple desert trip, but it turned into a magical adventure. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories about the formations that look like giant mushrooms and abstract sculptures. Around the campfire, we shared laughs with our friends while the sky lit up with countless stars – a moment I’ll never forget. The 4X4 ride through the Black Desert was thrilling, and the camp setup was surprisingly comfortable. A huge thanks to the team for their professional and friendly service!

Absolutely fabulous

Unforgettable experience in the white desert with Tamer, probably one of the best guides in the area. We discovered landscapes unique in the world. And ate like kings. Tamer is an outstanding cook! A huge thank you for this magical, peaceful and comfortable night amid the rock formations, in absolute silence. To do and do again!

1 perfect day 1 fake

All firs day very perfect. All as drescribed and very nice reception and nice drivers. The experience was great and to recomend. I gave 2 stars because 2nd day was a total fake. Norhing as described. No termal bath, no visit to mummies museum, no visit to Magnis temple. At 9:00am were back to oasis Mahariya and that was all. I am not happy not to be given what was promised. Please correct this.

Excellent Overnight Desert Tour

Our day began promptly at 7am with a friendly driver picking us up. We had a four-hour drive to Tamer's house, where we were warmly welcomed by Tamer and his family. They prepared a delicious lunch for us. Tamer then took us on a captivating journey to various natural wonders, including the Black Desert, Crystal Cave, and unique rock formations like the Mushroom and Chicken, then we arrived in the White Desert National Park. Tamer skillfully set up a campsite for us and treated us to a delicious dinner under the stars. After the dinner, we shared delightful moments over Bedouin tea, which I must say was the best I've had in Egypt. On the next day, we witnessed a brilliant sunrise in the morning. We enjoyed a pleasant breakfast together and then we left the desert at around 8:30am, we were back to Cairo at around 4:15pm. Tamer's prompt responses and his kindness to ensure a remarkable Sahara Desert experience left a great impression on us. I recommend Tamer’s tour to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure in the Sahara Desert.

white desert, a place to come back

we had a very good time in the company of the guide who took us around both the white and black desert and the Baharia oasis. They have always been very friendly. Among other things, also very attentive and great drivers. The food cooked for us in the desert was excellent, but the food at Tamer's house was so-so. However overall a nice experience. I recommend it to everyone, much better than the Nile cruise for example.

The best desert experience

I was a single mother with my son and I felt very safe. The guides are very nice , polite and professional. The food they cooked was amazing. I didn't like Egyptian food in Cairo, but I liked a lot their food cooked in the middle of the desert. We have seen Black desert , Cristal Mountain , White desert. My 11 years old son was fascinated by everything. including the small bugs in the desert or the beautiful sky in the night. It was the first time I have seen him analyzing so meticulous the sky. The sunset and sunrise are speckles. This experience opened our Appetit for more similar experience ... and nothing can bit the perfect spectacle of the nature. I strongly recommend the everyone at least once in the life time.
