I saw the stars for the first time in my life with such beauty. The company is very organized and respectable. I highly recommend them. Egypt Camp White DesertPosted on Tripadvisor Anna Maria IVerified An unforgettable experience in the Black and in the White Desert I’ve been traveling with a group of 12 friends in the Black and White desert. Spectacular landscapes all over. It seemed we were on another planet, very fascinating and unique views. Camping in the desert for five nights was an amazing and unforgettable experience. Million of stars above us, and the silence and the vastness of the desert all around: an experience worth living at least once. Mohammed and his team were very friendly, well organized and professionals. Some nights they played music around the fire creating a magic atmosphere. Thanks Mohammed and Team for this great experience!Posted on Tripadvisor VITTORINA SVerified Assolutamente da consigliare Splendido tour in luoghi fantastici organizzato in modo molto competente e attento da Mohamed. Altrettanto bravo e disponibile tutto lo staff sia nella guida che nella cucina e nell'allestimento del campo.Posted on Tripadvisor Roberto OVerified Deserto Bianco Viaggio molto intenso e straordinario, l'organizzazione di Mohamed è altamente qualificata e professionale, con tende comode, una tenda cucina e un'ampia tenda refettorio. Si sono presi cura di noi dall'alba al tramonto. Assolutamente da raccomandare!Posted on Tripadvisor Sary AVerified An Unforgettable Highlight of Our Egypt Trip! We had an absolutely excellent experience with Egypt Camp White Desert, and it was easily the highlight of our entire time in Egypt. From start to finish, everything was handled with so much care and professionalism.The landscapes of the Black and White Deserts are like something from another planet, but what truly made the trip special was the team. Our guides were incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and went above and beyond to make us feel safe and comfortable. We spent a magical evening camping under a vast, star-filled sky, enjoying a delicious traditional dinner cooked right over the open fire.Waking up to the sunrise over the white chalk formations was a memory we will cherish forever. If you are looking for an authentic, stress-free, and deeply moving desert adventure, I cannot recommend this team enough. They truly treat you like family!Posted on Tripadvisor Riccardo BVerified raccomandato Bellissima esperienza!!! Organizzazione molto buona Mohamed è stato molto disponibile e premuroso Tutto lo staff è stato all'altezzaPosted on Tripadvisor Paradise24936868446Verified رحله رائعه رحله ممتعه مع الاخ محمد وفريقه. الفريق مكون من اشخاص محترمين وأمناء. الفريق متمكن ويعرف دروب المنطقه كما يعرف كف يده ويقيم مخيماته بافضل المواقع حيث يمكن رؤية المحيط الصحراوي لمسافات شاسعه وبأفضل ما يمكن. الصحراء البيضاء مذهله بتضاريسها ومناظرها الخلابه. انصح بخدمات هذا الفريق.Posted on Tripadvisor Pietro RVerified Un mare di bianco che riempie gli occhi Abbiamo fatto quest'escursione il 5 e 6 aprile insieme ai nostri figli (23 e 29 anni) che ci hanno accompagnato in questa avventura per festaggiare il mio compleanno. Non ci aspettavamo tanto. Siamo rimasti sbalorditi sia per la bellezza dei paesaggi, che per la simpatia con cui Mohamed si è preso cura di noi. Rispetto ad altre esperienze nel deserto fatte in Marocco abbiamo apprezzato il fatto che il campo è stato allestito e poi smontato senza alcun impatto sull’ambiente e dando un senso di libertà più autentico rispetto alle istallazioni fisse del Marocco. Mohamed si è rivelato un autista espertissimo, oltre che una guida capace di inoltrarsi per decine di km in mezzo alle dune senza perdere l’orientamento e facendoci divertire come al luna park. Tutto si è rivelato un’emozione, dallo snowbord , alla brace (preparatevi a mangiare alla beduina maniera e cioè con le mani), al flauto incantevole di Mustafa, la guida dell’altro gruppo, composta da alcuni ragazzi argentini simpaticissimi, con cui ci siamo riuniti nell’accampamento. Abbiamo avuto tutto il tempo per passeggiare tra i lapilli del Black Desert, raccogliere le gemme del Crystal Mountain e di scattare fotografie, tantissime, alle candide sculture nel Deserto Bianco. I colori dell’alba e del tramonto sono rimasti nei nostro occhi per giorni. Siamo stati veramente fortunati nell’aver scelto questa organizzazione egiziana, assolutamente consigliatissima, a parte qualche ora di sonno la mattina presto, comunque ben spesa, non vi faranno mancare nulla, a partire dalle emozioni. Ancora grazie al Egypt Camp White Desert PietroPosted on Tripadvisor Vinni CVerified Adventure @ Siwah Oasis and the Deserts They were incredibly beautiful days for us as couple. We were picked up Monday morning by a guide in Cairo and started the tour towards Black & White Desserts after lunch. The landscapes and shapes were really beautiful. We had a amazing nice overnight stay in the desert, the tent was clean and everything well maintained. Tuesday morning to Thursday we drove the Siwah Oasis with a second guide . Accommodation and meals were really well organised. The two guides were humanly very pleasant, they were diligent, accommodating and considerate. Lisa & Vincent 🇩🇪
