What a great experience! If we had known earlier, we would have planned a longer trip 😬. It was a long drive, but definitely worth it. The food at the camp was much better than at the hotel or some restaurants. The guide was very kind and attentive to the group ! Thanks

The part in the desert was great, the sights, the bivouac the meal... really good. For the part before and after reviewing some things. No upstream communication I had to restart by Viator to get in touch and after difficult to get answers. 4 h trip in the back seat of a 6 seater where the seats are good for the children...horrible...on the return it was a vehicle with 6 real seats so normal.. Similarly, back from the desert, around noon, not a refreshment or a DIY to eat but quickly back to Cairo...even if not explicitly precise, could be offered given the price... So desert 5 barely remains

It was a great tour. We drove through the desert in a Toyota 4WD, and the driver, Mohammed, was so good at driving that we could enjoy the ride of a roller coaster and enjoy the spectacular scenery created by the miracle of Mother Nature.

The experience itself was marvelous. We actually saw and experience more things than we thought and had a great time, from the food to the little glimpses of their local life. The dessert was just impressive and Mustafa who was our driver was attentive and proffesional.

WOW what a once in a lifetime experience with the chief Reda FOX, its was exactly as i would have wished. Black desert full of lava stone to bring back as a souvenir and after crystal mountain. Reda Fox was super smooth all the trip, not rushing us so we could stop anywhre and just walk by ourself to enjoy the trip. For camping he took care of everything and the food was fresh and delicious. He even know how to make the Fox come to us, because after all hes the FOX
