Wow, what a fantastic 3 days. My wife and I just returned from 2 fantastic nights in the desert with Hamada and Salah.
Previous reviews say it all, it's a fantastic trip, there is nothing to worry about, Hamada is a great guide and the area is very safe. We slept under the starts (tent optional), woke at dawn and wandered around the desert. Hamada and his assistant Salah prepared all our meals, set up camp, and introduced us to Bedouin culture and life. Hamada is really passionate about the area and knows some great places. I now know that there is more to Egypt than just temples and history, this may just have been the highlight of our 3 week long trip. Yes its a long drive from Cairo, but absolutely worth it!!

I don’t have words to describe this adventure. Hamada, the tour guide and Ahmed drove us to the desert and you cannot believe that without any kind of gps they did not get lost. They know it perfectly. Every spot that they showed us, was simply astonishing.
It was one of the best nights of my life, we slept gazing stars and eating the best food.
This trip is worth it 100%, 5 stars in every aspect.
Hamada, Ahmed and Debora see you soon.

I was on a trip with desert safari Egypt in the Western Desert in 2022 for 6 days/5 nights. Traveled with friends - group of 7 people. I never thought that the desert could be so different and so charmingly beautiful, and sunsets and sunrises 😍😍😍😍. I really liked everything: the places, the organization of the trip, the food, the travel program and the team of Bedouins led by Hamada, very nice and cheerful guys, you feel safe next to them. Sahara remained in my heart forever and wanted to return here, which happened in January 2024. I went with the same organizers and with my friends - everything was great, very tasty and soulful. I advise everyone to visit Western Sahara with the Hamada team!! Great guys!! In one night you will not feel all the charm and will not have time to relax and enjoy the energy and beauty of the desert. I recommend a minimum of 3 nights!

Our tour to the dessert with Hamada and Ahmed was probably the best part of our trip in Egypt. They took care of everything and made us feel comfortable and safe at every moment. It was a really special night and I just wish we could have stayed more. Hamada really knows how to show the magic of the dessert.

Apologies to Hamada for the delay in posting this review but he took really good care of me and my two kids on an overnight tour of the Black and White Deserts. Hamada is lovely, really kind and interested in getting to know you. The White Desert was amazing and the food was delicious too. I would highly recommend this outfit and hope that the Eco Lodge will be open soon.

Hello! Together with my boyfriend we did the 2D/1N tour with Hamada and Salah and it was amazing! It is a very unique experience, with a shocking and unforgettable landscape. The trip is a bit long as it takes 4 hours from Cairo but the car is comfortable and with aircon. Once arrived at the Oasis, Hamada prepared a wonderful, local and very generous lunch for us and after some rest he brings you to the white dessert, stoping at different magic spots. Once there I recommend to go for a long walk as it is so peaceful and long journey till there. Once again, Hamada and Salah prepared a delicious dinner and we could enjoy the stars (plenty!). I totally recommend this tour, worth the time. All my best Hamada, Ester

I wanted to bring in the new decade (2020) under the Sahara night sky and went scouring online for different travel companies. Eventually I chose Hamada and his team and it was incredible!
day 1. We drove out from Cairo (they picked us up) to Hamada's Ecolodge where we had lunch. Afterwards, we heading out into the desert where we stopped by a few places (black desert and crystal mountain) on our way to the desert camping spot).
Him and his team set up camp for me and the rest of the travelers and we ate, sang and had the most merry time together.
Day 2. We had breakfast together before heading back to Cairo. I had to get back to catch a flight so I missed out on visiting a spring (I can't remember what is was).
Truly a once in a lifetime experience that I'll never forget. Highly recommend!

Hamada is the most welcoming and knowledgeable guide of the desert. We were received in his hotel in the oasis for a delicious lunch before departing for the desert. Two of us were vegetarian so he had this in consideration throughout the whole tour. He is very experienced driving in the desert and everything went smoothly. The dinner he and Ahmet prepared in the desert was the most comforting food we had in Egypt. Breakfast had everything we could ask for. I only wish we would have stayed for longer. 100% recommend this tour with Hamada.

It was an amazing trip with Hamada and Salah. Landscape is just great and it is changing every a few kilometer. We spend 2 night in the desert and finalized with white desert but we would loved to stay longer in the desert. Many thanks to Hamada and Salah for great hospitality and delicious local foods.

Absolutely fantastic! The diversity of the Sahara’s landscapes is fascinating. The team worked really hard to make the trip comfortable- the food, the facilities like tents, sleeping bags and blankets, all worked really well. I definitely recommend going to the desert with these guys ♥️

Dear Travellers and Egypt Staff,
I have read raving reviews about the Desert Safari. I would like to know which year did you undertake the desert safari and the pricing. My travel agent is advising against the same due to the aerial attack on Mexican tourists in 2015 by Egyptian forces. I would like to know whether it is safe or not to go for desert safari now. I am travelling in March.
Thanks,
Urbashi

We travelled into the White Desert in December 2017. We never felt threatened in Egypt, and have recommended the safari to many friends. Our safari cost US$140 per person per day. I hope that helps.

I received a message from a major local tour operator as well saying travel to the White Desert was currently not allowed. Is this true or has the status changed?

I just received the following message from a major local tour operator, "Unfortunately desert and safari activities in all parts of Egypt’s western deserts and oases (Bahariya, Farafra, the White Desert, Dakhla and Kharga) are banned in the time being and no one knows when it will be lifted. The Egyptian authorities have made this decision almost a year ago".
Is this true?
Thanks.
Written 15 May 2017
We visited in March 2017. At that point of time also a tour operator had said the same thing but actually there was no such ban. For current status write to any tour company which does white desert tours specifically and they will give you the latest information.

I originally contacted him and coordinated the trip via the hotmail email address given for him on Trip Advisor.
