The desert tour was absolutely amazing! It was professionally organised with very smooth transport from Cairo to Bahariya, comfortable sleeping conditions in the tent and good food (dinner from the campfire was actually very good!). Eslam is a great guide, a fluent English speaker who provides good context for the places you visit and creates a nice atmosphere throughout the trip, allowing you to visit all the places in your own pace, without any rush. And finally - White and Black Deserts are just stunning, absolutely worth seeing, photos do not do justice to them! If you also like new experiences, then do not miss sandboarding!
