Beautiful scenery and exciting experience

Published on Feb, 2025

This trip is an absolute MUST when you visit Egypt. Our guide Ryan made sure we had an unforgettable experience. The transport was 5 stars, both from the hotel, and the 4X4 experience. We visited some beautiful sites and had an exciting and exhilarating experience which we won’t forget. I would highly recommend the trip, and if we come back we will do an overnight camp!

Amazing experience!!

Published on Feb, 2025

Highly recommend this day trip to Fayoum from Cairo! My partner and I happened to be the only people on this tour in Feb and it was great. Ryan was an excellent and energetic tour guide and took amazing photos for us. We did sand sledding, swam in the Magic Lake, rode camels, and ate a delicious meal in a Bedouin camp/bnb (which they were able to make vegetarian). Be prepared to have to walk uphill on the sand dunes after each sled. We had a great local driver who rollercoastered up and down sand dunes and drove us up a mountain to overlooking the beautiful landscape. Things to bring: swimwear, towel, scarf to protect your neck/face from sand and sun, sunscreen, hat. Recommend cash for tipping the drivers, camel guy, chef, and tour guide. I would also recommend confirming all your preferences with your specific tour guide once you get their contact info. Because some things were not communicated between the operators and the tour guide himself (dietary restrictions). Highly recommend, because we would not have been able to arrange such a good experience on our own.

Amazing tour!!

Published on Feb, 2025

We had the most amazing time on this tour! Our tour guide Ahmed was sooo great and kind! He played a huge role in our experience! Our Bedouin driver Farak was sooooo sweet and hilarious! He had us all laughing and smiling the entire time. All of the drivers were also honestly extremely kind. We had the most wonderful time. I’m so happy we got to experience this tour in Egypt.
