Amazing tour
I visited the Egyptian desert, with my family last week( 30 September, 2018)
We booked a Safari Trip through Egypt dream tours.
Our ExpertTour leader, Tarek, gave us such a wonderful memorable tour.
Its serene, organized and enjoyable.
one of the best places I had ever visited in my lifei, I like every moment there the best was sand boarding , parasailing, camping and star gazing.
a lot of amazing places like the white desert, the black desert, valley of the whales, the waterfalls.

Ich war in Marsa-Allam und Tarek holte mich von dort ab, wir fuhren nach Kairo und dann zur Baharriya-Oase, es war eine sehr lange Fahrt, aber ich habe die Zeit in der Wüste sehr genossen, Abdo, der Fahrer, war sehr professionell und eine freundliche Person, der Reiseleiter Tarik ist der beste Führer, der Ihnen die ägyptische Wüste zeigen kann, das Essen war sehr lecker, ich habe viele Fotos gemacht, Camping in der weißen Wüste ist die unvergesslichste Erfahrung in meinem Leben, wir sind auf die Hügel der schwarzen Wüste geklettert, ich konnte dieses Abenteuer nicht vergessen, das Wetter in der Nacht war nicht so kalt wie ich erwartet hatte, ich kann diese Tour euch allen nur empfehlen.

Overall, it was a good trip, lots of historical sites visited, and our highlight was the desert safari. We were dumbfounded by the beautiful and amazing scenery and the various rock figures. Thank GOD we had this opportunity to witness his great work. Our tourist guide Tarik was very knowledgeable and helpful, he tried his best to fulfil our needs and requirements. Out of 5 stars, 5 being the highest, we would rate him 4. This is due to the unsatisfactory hotel arrangements. Going forward, it is advisable that he should communicate more effectively and provide links to hotels so that potential bookers could view and decide if they want to stay at that particular hotel, which he had suggested.
In summary, we would recommend him, he was as a good, friendly and a reliable person. We felt safe with him around. We wish him all the best and a very successful business.

I had a very nice three week trip through Egypt. Tarek was a super guide always concerned about our well being. Very helpfull. We spent a week in Kairo visitig various locations, the pyramids and the sphinx and also the Egyptian museum. We travelled through the black and the white desert, sleeping in the desert under the stary sky. We travelled South on the Nile and by car over the Assuan damm down to Abel Simbel.
It was an impressive trip, very well guided by TAREK. He was always ready to help.
