We got paired with a couple doing a 2 day tour, and so we did everything the first day. By the second day there was nothing left to do, unless we wanted to pay extra. That was a surprise to us, considering I was told we wouldn't need any cash for anything other than tipping. So we ended going back to Cairo with the first group a day early. So I don't feel like got what we paid for. Having said that, our guide the first day was amazing and kind. The landscape we saw was unreal. But I would do the 2-day tour over the 3 knowing what we know now.Show more

Badry and his team created a magical experience for us. After a long day of travel we rested in his camp while enjoying delicious meals prepared by his son Islam. The following day we set out with Mohammed to the Black and White deserts. Magnificent! Mohammed took us to beautiful vistas and drove so skilfully through the dunes. Aqabat mountain was our particular favourite – it will take your breath away. We then rested with a warm fire and dinner under the stars, before heading back to the camp for lunch in Bahariya and then driving back to Cairo. A perfect start to our Egyptian holiday.Show more

Can you customize this trip for us? Day 1 (16 February): From Cairo airport around 16:00 to go straight to Siwa (i'm not interested to stop to Marsa Mutruh or Alexandria), we can have a quick diner on the way and we should arrive around midnight in Siwa. I will book the accommodation on my side in Siwa (you do not have to take care of it). Day 2 (17 February): We will be tired so we will sleep until maybe 9 am and then start the tour including Shali fortress, temple of Oracle of Amun in the morning then Cleopatra bath and salt lake in the afternoon then back to our hotel late afternoon. Day 3 (18 February): Sand safari in the morning with sandboarding in the dune then free time in the city. Day 4 (19 February): Drive early morning to the black desert on the morning and then go to the White desert in the afternoon and camp there for the night.
