 Verified An Unforgettable 6-Day Adventure Through Egypt
I would like to say a big thank you to Ahmed and Mohamed for organizing my amazing 6-day trip through the Black and White Deserts and Siwa. Everything was extremely well organized, and no time was wasted during the transfers. The whole trip ran smoothly from beginning to end, which allowed me to make the most of every day. Thanks to them, I was able to introduce Egypt to two friends who had never really experienced the country before, and it was an incredible experience for all of us. What I especially appreciated was their flexibility and the fact that we could always find common ground. They were always willing to listen to my wishes and adapt the trip accordingly, which is truly remarkable. Thank you again to Ahmed and Mohamed for making this journey so memorable. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to discover Egypt in an organized, flexible, and authentic way!

 Verified Amazing experience
We had a wonderful experience with the White Desert tour. We started our safari with a delicious lunch at our tour guide's home. After that, we headed into the desert. I never knew the desert was so diverse. In the middle of the White Desert, camp was set up and a delicious meal was prepared. The peace and quiet was also wonderful after a few busy days in Cairo. The gentlemen were very friendly and hospitable. It was an unforgettable experience. So glad we were able to do this safari!

 Verified 3 jours 2 nuits au déserts noir et blanc
3 jours inoubliable dans les déserts blanc et noir. Des paysages très variés et surprenants. Nos guides Mohamed et Ahmed forment une bonne équipe. Ils se sont occupés de nous, on a bien mangé et ils nous ont toujours laissé le temps de profiter de ces magnifiques paysages. On a réservé par e-mail puis WhatsApp, on leur a fait confiance et on a jamais été déçu. Ils sont top👍🏼 En juillet il fait quand même chaud (ce n’est pas une surprise😉) mais on était seul au monde. On recommande vraiment de faire 3 jours pour visiter tranquillement et aller plus loin dans le désert où il y a les grandes dunes de sable.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing White Desert Experience! We had an incredible two-day trip to the White Desert with Egypt Camp White Desert. Everything was perfectly organized from the very beginning. Communication via WhatsApp was easy, fast, and very trustworthy, which gave us a lot of confidence when booking the tour. The entire experience was excellent – delicious food, great equipment, a friendly guide, and many amazing photo spots throughout the trip. We always felt safe and well taken care of, and every detail was organized professionally. If you are thinking about visiting the White Desert, we can highly recommend booking directly with them. It was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt. Thank you again for these unforgettable two days!

 Verified A Surreal and Exceptional Experience
We had an amazing experience on the White Desert tour. Mr. Ahmed drove us safely from Cairo to Bahariya Oasis, and the lunch in Bahariya was excellent. From there, Mr. Munir and Mr. Hisham took us into the desert in a 4x4 vehicle. They were professional and friendly, and made the entire journey unforgettable. We visited many incredible places, including the Black Desert, Crystal Mountain, and the White Desert, each offering breathtaking scenery. Camping in the White Desert was a truly surreal experience. The night sky was absolutely stunning, and we could clearly see the Milky Way and countless stars. The dinner at the campsite was also delicious and exceeded our expectations. Thank you to the entire team for such a memorable adventure. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Egypt and looking for a unique desert experience.
