Class M planets "White and Black Desert" Landing date 24.07.2025 Surface temperature 50°C - Incredible alien scenery is completely immersed in the script of a fantastic film. 300 km2 of wind-made white sculptures at the bottom of prehistoric seas, mountains of ancient black volcanoes, gleaming crystals of quartz and billions of stars falling from the sky - a place in the blazing July Sahara I will never forget. There was no one around to disrupt the natural course of thought, as the Earth was created. The not-too-distant journey through Cairo to this promised destination is a fascinating, thrilling journey across the country on the sands with unusual people from distant oases, with mangoes and dates, and with unsparing hot sun. God bless my guide from Bahariya, he showed me this world, fed me, got me drunk and told me many, many interesting things about life in the desert. The trip was very well organized with all my wishes, which were implemented on an individual basis. Thank you to everyone who did it! I'll be back with new ideas!

Unforgettable moments - Hamada and Reda have been very caring for us. Everything has been set up to please us: the 4x4 ride, the photo stops or walk, the surprises of swimming in sulphur pools, flying kite to sandsurfing, evening meal, tents.... Everything was there to live unforgettable moments. Thank you both.

A trip to the moon - In my view, it is imperative to visit the Black and White Deserts while in Cairo. It's like a trip to another world. Where you can have privacy with nature and your thoughts. The beauty is amazing. Hamada is the best chaperone. Tried to bring me to all locations first so I could enjoy the scenery without anyone. We traveled in two cars. 3 people and 2 guides. Guides cooked dinner and entertained us with songs to the drums. Very authentic. Highly recommended. I'd even agree to skip the pyramids, but not this trip. In my opinion, while in Cairo, it is absolutely necessary to visit the Black and White Deserts. It's like a trip to another world. Where you can be alone with nature and your thoughts.

Unforgettable fantastic trip - We were in Black and White Deserts in June. It was amazing. Hamada is very nice man, good guide and very friendly. He always been around us and showed interested places. We spend very good time, took a lot of unfogeteble impressions, also we took a lot of different beautifull photos. At first, we walked around Bahariys Oasys, saw different frout trees and oasys life. Then we were going to Black desert and set up camp. But we prefered sleping under the open air, it was wery nice. The wether was warm. We walked a lot of around, climbed to black hills (mountains) and enjoyed of fantastic Martian views. Next day, we moved to White desert throught Agaba Desert and Cristal mountain. We saw charming and magic views around, the sand was look like snow. Also, we saw a lot of differente aunciant shells, several million years. We spent night under the open sky and enjoyed a magic sky and stars. I would like to say "a bigThank you to Hamada", and we will return in that place one more. We explored a new place and found something new within ourselves.

Great and unique experience - The trip is definitely recommended if you are going to be in Cairo. White desert, sand boarding, and spending night in the desert are unique and awesome experiences. Make sure to take heavy jackets in the winter months. Hamada is awesome and takes the time to provide a great experience. Would highly recommend him and team. They took really great care of us

My dream place - Many thanks to Hamada for our wonderful journey! White desert is one of the best locations I've ever sen and I want to return there more time. Landscapes are so extraterrestrial as if you visited another planet. Organisation was great: picking up, food, sleeping at desert, songs, music. We enjoyed a lot these 2 days.
