everything was perfect, when we see the bus and sat there we realiez that it will be a nice trip and it was beyond my expectations. We came to the area and the place was really cute, then they took us to the bedevian village with buses and the trip was sooo fun!! climbing to the rocks and jumping along the road was amazing. we had tea there and rode camel. it was great. All equip was great but our guide Asim (Hasim) was really wise and explained everything well, then we had Buggy tour and it was very good. after that we did Quad Tour, it was really enjoyable! then we came back to the place and ate open buffet dinner. it was good, we watched some traditional egyptian show and they brought us back to the hotel. 5/5 experience, recommend it to everyone

Quad bikes are fun

Leon_S, Sep 2025
As with all the excursions but you do in Hurgada, there always appears to be an extra charge. There was an extra charge for going into a tourist area. It was $1 per person. There was also charge of $5 per person to buy a head scarf to keep the dust out of your mouth and nose and also an additional $3 charge to hire the ski type goggles which keep the dust off your eyes or off your sunglasses. Trip takes roughly 3 hours. You will ride 11 kilometres take a short break and then ride the next 11 km to the Bedouin village. You then stop for a short break. Ride some camels if you wish. Look at the Bedouin gift shop. Have some tea and then return back to the start. It's a good trip but you will get very very dusty so wear some old clothes. If I were booking this trip I would go in the morning which gives you the rest of the day after you return to shower and relax by the pool. If you can purchase a headscarf before you take the trip it will be cheaper for you.

Did not fit tour description

Jules_B, Aug 2024
This was an appalling experience and did not fit the description at all. We had less than 10mins on the quad bikes, following in a line very slowly. The quads were overheating and all but burnt our inner shins. The buggies we had slightly longer, maybe 15 mins tops, but again very slowly followed a long line of other people and we had to have 2-3 people per buggy not one each. The description states we would go across the desert to a Bedouin village on one of these vehicles but we were rammed into a mini bus that drove us there. This was the last day of Egypt trip and left us very disappointed because we had wasted the whole day on this. In addition, they changed the time of the trip which meant our onward plans were disrupted, the tour operator were very slow to respond to my attempts to communicate with them and very unhelpful when I asked specifically for help. I would not recommend this trip, use an alternative tour operator and check exactly what you get before booking; because this has the potential to be an amazing experience. This is not about the money, it was was such a waste of a day.

Amazing day!

What a day! Highly recommend to anyone visiting Hurghada. Really interesting to learn about the life in the Bedouin village, taste their own made bread and ride a camel. Quad and buggy rides were brilliant. All staff are very friendly and know how to look after you. Please take some cash with you on the day (Euro/Dollar preferably) as some of the souvenirs (which are absolutely stunning and exclusive!) and their own made medicine can be a bit costly (some are costing 25-30 eur) and you can pay cash only. Big thanks to the tour organisers and the host (Goes by the nickname of Morgan Freeman) and also the driver - amazing people!

One of the best days of my life

Perfect day! Excellent price. Friendly, informative, time between activities to relax. Started with the village I the dessert (got there by fast bump jeep ride through the dessert which we, including 5 year old, LOVED) short camel ride when there Then back to the base for quad ride and dune buggy Lastly back to base for evening meal and entertainment ( fire dancer, traditional dancer) Great show and food

Suppléments

Romuald_B, Aug 2024
Attention aux suppléments financiers, j’ai payé 17€ en plus pour les foulards et l’utilisation des masques ! Et à chaque activité de l’argent est demandé. Le chauffeur prévu n’a pas pu venir nous chercher à notre hôtel, nous sommes donc arrivés avec deux heures de retard sur le planning mais notre guide a fait son possible pour que nous puissions faire toutes les activités, merci à lui (Tommy group) Notre groupe était en anglais uniquement

Journée catastrophique

Dorine_A, May 2024
Que dire… Nous avions réservé cette activité surtout pour la partie quad et buggy et nous avons été très déçus. Premièrement, le chauffeur est arrivé avec 30min de retard, aucun message pour prévenir ni aucune excuse pour l’attente. Nous avons fait 40minutes de quad tous en ligne et sans réellement de vitesse. Concernant le buggy, à peine 20 petites minutes sur un appareil en fin de vie. La journée a été très longue, après cela nous nous sommes dirigés vers le village Bedoin. Gros piège à touristes ! Nous avons été choqués de comment ils traitent les chameaux ! Par pitié ne cautionnez pas ça et ne faites pas de balade ! Les jeunes enfants bédouins les frappaient alors que les pauvres animaux ne voulaient plus se lever… Ils ont une espèce de terrarium sur place (où il faut payer 2€ pour entrer) pour voir des animaux rachitiques… Tous les moyens sont bons pour faire de l’argent. Et cerise sur le gâteau : au retour notre chauffeur est passé devant notre hôtel mais il ne s’est pas arrêté, il a d’abord déposé tout le monde et 50min plus tard c’était enfin notre tour. Sans compter qu’on a failli avoir un gros accident car le chauffeur s’est disputé avec un autre chauffeur sur la route et celui-ci nous faisait des queues de poisson. Horrible ! Nous avions envie de pleurer à la fin de la journée
