This trip gave our family a lifetime of memories in just two days. We never expected the desert to be so fascinating, with its varied landscapes and incredible rock formations. We enjoyed being able to walk around the desert when we stopped at different landmarks and we felt very relaxed. The camping was fun, especially for our children. Hamada and his friendly team took care of everything and gave us a unique chance to enjoy local dishes and gain some understanding of Bedouin culture. We will definitely return for a longer trip.

Hamada is a very professional guide and he knows the desert as his own home. His team is very positive and supportive. The food was just awesome, better than in Cairo restaurants. Organization was quite good, the guide is always trying to find the best place for the camp and photo spots, according to the group needs. Thanks for the wonderful trip King of Desert :)

Hamada is a great host, who has been doing this for many years. The experience left us camping in an extremely remote location in the desert, gazing under stars so bright we could visibly see the milky way in the sky. If you like camping, deserts, or both, I highly recommend this tour. If you aren't really a camping person, you can also rest assured that everything is taken care of for you. Great food and company, beautiful scenery, an unforgettable adventure. Thank you!

P.S. If you are planning this tour, make sure to figure out when sunrise is to happen and wake up 10-15 min before. Watching the sun rise in pure silence and seclusion was magical.

It was great trip in the middle of Egypt. We could see white dessert, black dessert, Al Gabar and etc. It was fantastic landscapes as you were on other planet. I am really surprised that dessert can be so various, so contrast and unpredictable.
I appreciate the strengths of local Egyptian team who supported us each minute of trip. I fell in love the cooking of Salah. Each day we received new dish - rise with chicken and eggplant's ragout were my favourite ones. And I appreciated a lot places for camps that were without people in the middle of hit places.
