Nice tour. Van is bit old but it's not that critical cause only drive few hours. Tour guide and ppl in desert village are so kind. Also they set up telescope and shows planet and moon. And ppl don't force you for paying tips. Overall very satisfying experience, highly recommend

Great quad biking and good fun with the jeep safari to and from the village. Dinner was tasty and the star gazing was fantastic. The telescope allowed us to get a close up of the moon and to see Saturn and Jupiter. The guides were brilliant!

    Pick up and transport is fun and adventurous, the vehicle is well suited for the terrain and the driver knows his way around the area very well. The program itself is very diverse, we learned something about the Bedouin life in the desert, you also have the opportunity to go on a short camel ride, the animals we saw were healthy and well kept. Our guide Arabi/Coolrabi had an outstanding knowledge about the stars and taught us many interesting things about the night sky. The telescopes are high quality, the views were absolutely magnificent. The place itself is far enough away from the city to see the milky way in all its beauty with the naked eye. Dinner was also quite good, you can choose from different salads completed by meat and sides. I would definitely recommend this activity to everyone who has an interest in star gazing or the Bedouin life in general. The organisation is very professional and the guides are absolutely eager to give you a lifetime experience under the outstanding Egyptian nightsky!

    Great experience and tour guide!

    Akos_G, Apr 2026
    Great experience to see the sunset in the desert, learn about Bedouin culture and also a lot about stars :) Our tour guide Moussa was very engaging and did his best to make sure we have a good afternoon / evening: he even offered to do camel ride (which was not originally included in our booking) and helped to negotiate in the Bedouin market! One thing to note for all: the ride to the Bedouin village is through the desert and sand dune and it takes ~45 mins. This can be quite a roller coster, which is an experience, but your stomachs need to be ready for it!

    If you are only interested in the stars, it will be frustrating!

    Aida_S, Apr 2026
    Spend 7h on a activity that could be done in 1-2h and that steals the time opportunity to do other things on this day! Most of the visitors are there for the stars but they pick you around 14h-14h30m for doing a lot of other things that some of us weren't interested. When asked about the possibility of arranging a later pickup time, they explain that the law doesn't allow to bring tourists late in the desert. Although, I do believe part of this is true, it is clear that they could do later pickups but by forcing the clients to visit their gift shops and do extra activities, they increase the profits significantly by reducing the quality of the event! most hours there are boring specially when thinking that you haven't done anything else in that day just to be there...

    Fantastic experience, exceeded expectations!

    Claire_J, Jan 2026
    Mousa was our guide; very knowledgable and friendly, answered any questions. The jeep ride into the desert is bumpy but so much fun. The scenery is breathtaking; we felt like we were in a movie. The Bedouin experience was a real treat, we saw ladies making bread and got to taste it, learnt about their way of life. We had a fantastic meal of chicken, beef, potatoes and vegetables that had been cooked in the ground, along with salads, baba ganouche and fruit. Then we went onto the stargazing which was amazing. We saw jupiters moons and rings, Saturn and the rings and an extreme close up on the moon. Mousa pointed out various constellations and stories of how the Bedouin people read the sky. I have never seen Orion so complete- shield, bow, dog and Taurus all with the naked eye! Amazing experience from start to finish. I would say make sure you take some extra drinks with you, definitely wear suitable shoes (lots of sand and rocks) and pack a jumper as it’s cold in the desert at night.

    memorable evening on the star-gazing tour

    Magdalena_M, Jan 2026
    We had a really lovely and memorable evening on the star-gazing tour and would like to sincerely thank the team for a well-organised experience. We were picked up from our hotel in Hurghada around 2 pm, exactly as agreed, by a very kind driver and guide who stayed with us throughout the entire evening. On the way to the Bedouin camp for dinner and stargazing, we first stopped at an open spot with mountains on the horizon to watch the sunset. It was a beautiful moment and the scenery was stunning, a nice start to the excursion. I also enjoyed the car ride in the desert. If I may share one small and very gentle suggestion: personally, I felt we spent quite a long time at the sunset stop (around one hour), and by the time we arrived at the Bedouin camp, the sun had already set. We then had only a very short time before it became fully dark. I would have loved to experience the sunset at the camp instead, so there would have been a little more daylight to take in the surroundings. Seeing the camp, the people there, the cute Camels and the atmosphere in daylight would have been wonderful — especially having time to look at the herbs and creams they sell without using small flashlights, to take a few photos, and to gently explore the place before dinner. That said, the camp itself felt very welcoming and authentic, and the people were kind and warm. The dinner was excellent and truly special. The food was prepared on site in a traditional way, cooked underground, which made it both delicious and a very unique experience. We really appreciated that. The stargazing itself was the highlight of the evening. The guide was clearly very knowledgeable and explained the night sky with great passion and clarity. It was fascinating and beautifully done. We also appreciated that there was a photographer present during the whole excursion, capturing those moments for anyone who wished. Our group was small (only eight people), which made the experience feel personal and relaxed. Overall, this was a wonderful evening that we truly enjoyed. With just a small adjustment to timing around sunset and arrival at the camp, it could be even more magical. Thank you again for a very special experience — we will definitely remember it. ❤️

    Shital_G, Jan 2026
    Absolutely loved doing this excursion and wish it was longer as the time flew by too quick. Will definitely do this again but try and find a tour that allows you to spend the night in the desert under the stars all night. Moussa and his brother Moody were brilliant. Thank you ☺️

    Bedouin Stargazing

    Derek_R, Jan 2026
    Had an great evening in the desert with Moussa! A bumpy but fun off road drive to the desert. Then a mountain sunset that was stunning. We learned about Bedouin crafts, medicines, and their cooking and food storage. Fed the young camels, with the fesh bedouin bread, before eating a beautiful traditional dinner, and ending the night stargazing. There is a small hill to climb to view the sunset, which I was a little worried about as I'd hurt my knee. It wasn't necessary to climb if you didn't want to but its an easy climb and worth it. I think.

    Great excursion but check the weather conditions before you go!

    Sherida_H, Dec 2025
    This was a really cool experience! The jeep ride was fun but quite bumpy so if you are prone to car sickness, take precautions. The only reason I am giving it 4* instead of 5* is because it was pretty cloudy so we didn't get to see many stars, nor the milky way. Everything else is organised very well. Good food, nice live music, beautiful views and the pictures were worth the 15 euros we paid. The tour guides were lovely as well! We learned some cool stuff about the night sky and got to see some planets and the moon through the telescope. Definitely recommend this to anyone but make sure it is a clear night to get the best experience out of it. I will be giving it another try next time!

    A bumpy ride but worth it. Not to be missed.

    Sheila_O, Nov 2025
    We only wanted the sunset and stargazing not the Bedouin experience but that was interesting and relaxing , people were lovely and the food was good. Sunset was amazing and the stargazing. Moussa is a great guide who is passionate and knowledgeable about the stars and Egypt. The photographer was great, in fact all the team really try to make it a great trip for you and make you feel special. The car journey is a long bumpy ride into the desert to get to the camp and away from the the light pollution but worth it. I would thoroughly recommend this trip with Moussa and his team.

    Fantastic Stargazing Experience with Incredible Views of the Night Sky

    Jake_R, Oct 2025
    The tour starts with a jeep buggy ride through the desert, which is an experience in itself (in a good way if you enjoy adrenaline )! We were brought to the Bedouin village where we were left in the capable hands of our guide Adam and photographer Mody. In the village you get tea, water, a short camel ride, and village tour all included in the price. You then watch the sunset behind the mountains which is beautiful. The photographer is there with you to take some amazing sunset photos (they are well worth the $15 dollars). After sunset is dinner in the village before the main stargazing event. You have the chance to see various celestial objects through a telescope with detailed explanations by the guide. We timed our trip so that the moon would not have risen yet to minimise any light pollution. This paid off and the views of the Milky Way were incredible - I'd recommend anybody to do the same, although I'm sure the tour is just as good with the moon visible too. A huge thank you to Adam, Mody, and everyone else at Space Obsersvers for a fantastic stargazing trip!

    Great afternoon and evening experience

    Andrew_M, Sep 2025
    We went for the dark sky experience expecting a pretty ordinary trip but from the start it was good fun. First the bumpy ride through the desert then the camel ride. We hadn't planned on do the camel ride but changed our minds and this made our day. The Bedouin camp was an insight and then onto the hill climb to watch the sun go down. All this before the star gazing part. I struggled a bit with the telescope to see Saturn but overall the stars were quite visible. Our guide was very informative about the night sky and it's history which added another layer to the experience. The photographer was great especially the more candid photos showing us really enjoying ourselves

    Excellent value and super fun

    Sonia_F, Aug 2025
    If you don't anything else do this. The 4x4 ride is worth the ticket alone. You take that long drive out in the desert, in that crammed jeep, the fun starts there, music blaring a super ride. Then you get to the campment out in the desert, super well organised. Just in time for a camel ride of you like, see someone make bread and check out some souvenirs. You climb a little hill just on time for the sun set eat a nice light dinner (you need light because those dunes are not forgiving). Super astro guide Farez explained everything, lined up those scopes like a pro and we got to see the milky way which was amazing. Then back into town. Overall a superb time had by all. Thanks to the team and our driver Amer, total legend (sorry if I mispel his name)

    Stargazing was a small part of the whole

    Saber_B, Jul 2025
    We found out that Stargazing was a small part of the whole excursion but that was the only disappointment. The trip and other parts of the excurtion were fun too. Especially the view from the hills and the natural hand made products sold by the beduine tribe are appreciated. Would recommend this trip as long as you know that Stargazing does not feel as the main activity.

    Adam, moody and Wasim were excellent guide, photographer and driver. They kindly gave up their front seat in Jeep as I have a bad back. The scenery in the desert beautiful, Bedouin food. Camel ride, sunset and village all wonderful. Adam educated us about the stars and planets and lots of interesting history on the Bedouin. Adam’s knowledge and English excellent. It was great fun too and highly recommend. Thank you wasim for driving so carefully to protect my back. 🤓

    This was a great evening, the jeep racing through the desert was fun, and the guide Adam so knowledgeable, I highly recommend the photographer ...15 euros for his photos was good value. We had a camel ride, watched the sunset, saw how bread was made by the community, and had a tasty dinner. The telescopes are great and Adam took the time to show us constellations and stars using a laser...brilliant evening...highly recommend!

    We travelled by jeep for quite a distance into the deserts to get away from the city lights. Once we arrived at the Bedouin camp we had tea and watched the women make bread. Then it was a camel ride which I wasn’t expecting and our cameraman snapping away so I hope he got some good shots. Then a short climb to witness the sunset and then dinner. Then came the best bit as darkness fell with more and more stars appearing. Out came the telescopes so that we could see the stars closer. The wind made it tricky as I didn’t want to touch the scope. Moussa then gave us a really informative talk about the constellation finding the pole star etc. he was very professional and I only hope that I remember at least some of the things he was pointing out with his laser. Then back to my hotel. A fun filled six hours.

    Our pick up from our hotel was right on time. After the pick ups were made we parked up for a few minutes for wait for permission to enter the desert which didn't take long. The drive to the Bedouin Camp took about 30 mins. Our guide Ibrahim was brilliant. He was so knowledgeable, very friendly and made us all feel very welcome. He shared lots of interesting information. We hiked a little bit to watch the sunset which was really lovely. We then came back down to have dinner, it was very simple but really tasty- we really enjoyed the dinner. Then stargazing happens after dinner- the moon was almost full so gave off a lot of light- it was amazing to see through the telescope. Then we got to see Jupiter. Seeing the stars out int he desert was really really good. Then Ibrahim shared his knowledge on the stars, and we left because we had to be out of the desert by 9pm. The whole experience was great, it felt calm you didn't feel rushed at all, and all the people were lovely. I would 1000% recommend this experience!

    A wonderful experience! A must for those seeking adventure and education. Stunning scenery, Moussa is extremely knowledgeable, a master in all things astronomy. And the ride to the Bedouin people, what a trip. A little bumpy, but very entertaining! Thank you for a wonderful time!

    Our desert experience

    A jumper or coat will be needed as it gets quite cold at night..also good shoes for a small climb but believe me, its worth the effort. The night sky is stunning. Moussa, Cidek and the team were excellent, very knowledgeable and this experience will be a forever in my heart.
