    Deeply Disappointing – Total mismatch with the official description

    Marek_M, Jan 2026
    Don’t be fooled by the "Astronomical Specialists" labels. This experience was a complete failure compared to what was promised in the offer. ​The Reality vs. The Promise: ​Poor Equipment & Skills: Despite the claim of using a "GPS-directed Meade telescope", Jupiter and Saturn were just blurry white dots. The guide showed no passion and clearly didn't know how to set up the telescope properly. ​Light Pollution: The description promises "some of the best conditions on Earth for observation" in the middle of the desert. Instead, it was organized in a Bedouin village surrounded by bright shop lights that ruined the sky visibility. ​False Advertising: The "astronomer knowledge" promised was non-existent. The photos in the gallery bear no resemblance to the actual experience. ​Value for Money: At nearly £50 per person, the stargazing part was "rubbish." Only the quad biking was okay, but that doesn't justify the price or the 5-star TripAdvisor rating. ​Conclusion: If you are looking for a professional "Space Observers" experience, look elsewhere. This was a massive letdown.

    Amazing different activities within one trip

    Oanh_V, Jan 2026
    My husband, my two kids of 5-years and 9 -years old boys and i had a nice tour of 6 hours with several difference activities during this tour (for example drive with quad and jeep through the desert, visit a village, short ride with the camals, taste some bread of the village, had delicious food and show and an amazing night to see clearly the planets and many stars. My kids loved it! We would recommended this tour to anyone that wants to do activities outside the resort and/or hotel. The people that organized the trip and the person that i have contacted with were kind, helpfull and always reply quick if you have questions regards the tour.

    This was the best tour in our eleven-day trip in Egypt. Also, operators did not intimidate us to give any tip.
