Unforgettable Desert Experience with Marwan & Dohy!
I had a truly amazing and magical experience during my 2-day desert camping trip. From the start, our guides Marwan and Dohy were incredibly nice, professional, and friendly. They made sure everything was perfect, and their energy made the trip even more special. The camping under the stars was a highlight of my Egypt trip. If you're looking for an authentic and well-organized desert tour, I highly recommend Sub Pyramid Tour. Thank you Marwan and Dohy for the beautiful memories!

Exhausting, but worth it!
The trip is very long and tiring (4 hour drive out of Cairo to the desert camp, then several hours in a 4x4 car through the desert, and 5 hour drive back), but it is definitely worth it! The landscape is unique and extraterrestrial, very photogenic. Some of the guides were not very helpful, but our driver/guide Wahid was the King of the Desert! Very friendly and experinced, giving us a lot of information, stopped anytime we wanted to take a picture.

Better Than The Pyramids!
Obviously the Pyramids are a must for any visit to Cairo, but i honestly enjoyed my tour to the Black and White Deserts more.
I was picked up on time by my tour guide Jessi and my driver Khalid and was taken on a drive through the Egyptian Sahara. I transfered to a 4x4 driven skilfully by Waled. The scenery in the Black Desert was amazing, but the rock formations in the White Desert blew me away. The tour wrapped up with dinner back at Star Camps before a leisurely drive back to Cairo. A great tour that I would recommend without hesitation.

Totally worth it
The whole experience was incredible. Everyone was very nice, our driver in the desert was amazing, very kind, a good cook and the whole trip was great. The landscape is breathtaking. I do recommend doing this.

Wonderful 2 days.
Wonderful experience! It is the most incredible scenery in the oasis! Well worth the drive out there, which is long. It’s a lot of driving over the 2 days but completely worth it. The stops are incredible and the experiences with the Bedouins is a lovely addition. Our guide Osama was absolutely lovely and helped make our 2 days fabulous.

First of all, I liked...
First of all, I liked that the staff at the travel agency followed up well after making the reservation. The tour itself was actually one day, and the second day was mostly a return trip. In addition to visits to the white and black desert, camping in the desert were all very fun. We slept on a mattress without tent (it was optional). The experience of sleeping under the stars was a precious and unforgettable experience. The foods in the desert were also special!

The driver and tour guide...
The driver and tour guide were good! I had such a unique experience and I loved everything about the tour. Long, but it’s worth it.

A completely unique experience
I booked the tour mainly wanting to get out to see parts of the Egyptian Desert, but was bowled over by the stunning beauty of the Blck and White Deserts. I would return again in a heartbeat, and the only change would be to overnight. The guides were great, Wadid is a long-term local and pointed out all the great features. Definitely recommended.

To do
Great landscape. Sunset on white desert is amazing. Drivers could be more concentrated on road than smartphone...

When to visit

- Bahariya is a great choice for travelers looking for a more authentic desert experience than in the Red Sea resort towns.
- Women will want to dress modestly, covering legs, shoulders, and upper arms with loose clothing.
- During summer, desert sands can burn. Wear closed shoes.
- Temperatures in the desert can drop surprisingly low at night between late fall and early spring (November through March). Pack layers.
- Safety in the Western Desert has come into question due to terrorism concerns, according to the US Department of State. Refer to your government’s travel advisories for the latest information.
- Bahariya, and a lot of Egypt can be challenging for wheelchair users, because of limited accessibility.
