We went to the nabq protected area hoping to see some birds (rather than the biking) and Claus arranged a personal jeep trip for us around this zone. We had a fantastic time and even though it is not the prime month for birds, because Claus knew the area like the back of his hand, and what birds were where,... More

Found out about this by chance when we arrived at the hotel in Sharm El Sheikh and it turned out to be the best part of the entire trip. It is a whole day excursion suitable for all ages where you take a fairly easy ride across the Sinai desert that doesn't require super fitness levels to do (more strenuous... More

By far the best tour i was on when in Egypt. Done a Desert cycle which was excellent, challenging, great views, well organised, good bikes and equipment, all round good fun. If i had more time i would have also booked one of their other tours during my holiday. A must do for the next time i am in egypt More

forget about camel riding, forget about quadbikes - contact Claus and book your guided tour. Claus is full of insight of the nature of the national park and is a good connection of the beduins. Humble, serious and still funny :-) More

Message: LAst week (March 7 )we (Rob and Cuni)were with you into the desert. Apart from excellent weather it was a very impressive trip. You showed us a lot of the mangrove, the EU subsiduzed fishing factory and the museum sponsored by a german university. We certainly would like to come back and hear more from your stories you can...

Contacted Claus before travelling to after a recommendation from a fellow bike club member. Asked Claus to arrange a 'challenging' ride. Claus arranged for a taxi to pick me up from my hotel and take me to his base at Nabq. I'd asked before to use SPD pedals and Claus had the bike setup upon arrival. Myself and a fellow... More

I cycle and one of the things I do when away is look for local bike hire. This trip I struck gold. A web search found http://www.blackjackbike.com/ and I swapped a couple of emails (which included receiving a comprehensive guide to their services). Once in the resort (I'd not booked in advance due to the fluid situation in Sinai) I... More

Klaus sold the trip with his enthusiasm and his love of the area, I've been to the Red Sea 3 times, spent a night in the desert and I've done several road trips but never see the local flora and fauna & everyday life from a Bedouin point of view. The least commercial and most beautiful trip I've been on,... More

This was a wonderful half day out of the resort, exploring a tiny part of the Nabq Protected Area, a place that most visitors to Sharm don't even know exists, let alone get to. It's not the cheapest trip available, but the groups are small and Klaus is a very knowledgable and consisderate guide, helping make sure that everyone gets... More
