Great tour, great guy Mohammed! - We booked this for our first day and we had a great time with our guide, and now friend Mohamed. He was awesome, very hospitable, no was any trouble and best of all, he had a great sense of humour, nothing was too much trouble. The day was full and we enjoyed the time being shown around by a great bloke. Would recommend going with him again

Amaaaaaazing! - Such an amaaaaazing experience. Booking and amending some parts of the tour to suit our needs was very easy and went smoooth. During the tour everything was amaaazing and much better than expected. The tour guide was knowledgeable, decent and very accommodating. Mariam (the amazing girl i booked with her) kept checking with us that everything is perfect and as per what we needed ❤️ it felt like a family member checking over us. We drove through the amazing white sand dessert, stayed in the camp for lunch and breakfast the next day. We saw the valley of whales and the vley of Rayan, the magic lake, the waterfall and the other lakes. The trip was outstanding and one of a kind!!!! Definitely, I recommend the trip.

A brilliant desert trip! - This tour to Wadi al Hitan and Wadi al Rayan was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone.
Ayman is a very friendly and knowledgeable guide who will take care of you the whole day.
The drive to Wadi al Hitan to see the whale fossils was filled with extraordinary views and was great fun.
The traditional Egyptian food provided at the White Desert camp after the trip to both wadis was very tasty and of fantastic quality.
A very memorable day trip!
