We were picked up from Cairo in a van for our private tour. The total drive is about five hours from Cairo, but a smooth one and you'll get plenty of to catch some ZZ’s on the road. So don't hesitate to leave early if you want to. We stopped at two gas stations for coffee/bathroom break. Once you reach closer to the desert, you’ll then switch cars and get into a Jeep that’ll have all the supplies you’ll need to spend the night in the desert. An Egyptian lunch was provided at this time from a local restaurant. Lunch included Egyptian bread, eggplant dish, tuna, and salad, desert and some mint tea. On our way we stopped at the Black desert and Crystal Mountain. We then had a thrilling drive thru the sand dunes and stopped at an elevation to get a view of White Desert. We then visited the many rock formations across the desert and took some amazing sunset photos. We also enjoyed the sandboarding opportunity, especially my 8-year-old daughter who was a pro! We reached out campsite and it was already getting dark. Our driver (another Mohammed) built a campfire and prepped for dinner while we changed into warm clothes and enjoyed gazing at the stars in the beautiful night sky with a spectacular view of the Milky Way. My children were so excited to be able to see the different constellations . The night time weather was very cold in December and we were huddled around the camp fire to keep us warm, so please do yourself a favor and bring nice comfortable warm clothes for the desert. Hot dinner was ready in an hour or two. Our dinner consisted of hot soup, salad, grilled chicken, and rice. After dinner, we sat by the campfire and drank a hot cup of tea as Mohammed shared his stories and bollywood songs shot in the desert. We were super tired after dinner and ready to hit the bed. Driver Mohammed set up our tents and laid the sleeping bags for us. The tent was tiny, but we were warm and comfy. Note is that there are no bathrooms nor showers in the desert, but that shouldn't be a problem since you have the whole desert to yourself and no one in the vicinity. We felt safe in the hands of our tour guide and driver.
The next day we woke to watch the sunrise and after which we had a quick breakfast . On our way back to our hotel we stopped at a small village to see the hot springs and also stopped to climbed ‘English Mountain’.
Overall, it was a great experience with a great tour guide. I'd strongly recommend the White Desert Safari with Mohammed Sabagh. He is an excellent, charismatic and funny tour guide who was well organized with good time management skills.

We just came back from an amazing Giza Pyramid day tour with Mohamad. We are from Toronto, Canada and couldn’t have been more pleased.

The trip started off with a simple booking via WhatsApp followed by our tour guide and driver picking us up right from our hotel near the Pyramids.

We started early to avoid the larger tour groups which was a great tip. We built in enough time to see all the key sights and our driver was always close by to take us to the next activity/sight instead of having to walk. This is a major benefit!

It’s definitely worth paying the little extra for a private tour - Mohamed managed all the transactions for us to ensure we weren’t being taken advantage. On top of that he managed to take a number of amazing candid photos for us which may have not been possible had we booked with a larger tour.

They will even take you to any store or shop you want after the tour to go shopping - no pressure to buy.

If you’re ever staying in Giza or Egypt, definitely hit up this tour company and request Mohammad.

It is a wonderful experience to see all the white sand and the Sahara dessert. There are amazing, out of this world salty lakes in the middle of the dessert where you cannot sink to the bottom so you float on the top.

The tour guide Mohamed is super friendly and will do his best to accommodate your needs, for example if you need a guide who speaks a different language.

It would be a lovely trip to do after lock-down as there are very few people around.

I highly recommend that you visit the dessert and do this tour. I definitely want to do it again with my partner.

It was a wonderful trip from the very beginning. Black and White deserts are truly wonders of nature! After sightseeing we had a perfect dinner like it was cooked by chef :) food was simple but very delicious! While camping in the desert i advise you to wake up between 3 to 4 am to do stargazing, it’s something indescribable and 100% worth seeing! Me and my husband were accompanied by Mohammed Sabagh who also spend time with us in Cairo and Giza the day before desert safari. He is very friendly and open hearted, also he told us a lot about history of Egypt and showed us Egypt i have never seen before :) it was a pleasure to have such a wonderful guide with us for this trip!
I recommend to do Desert safari because what you can see there is unique and truly wonderful!

Before having this trip I thought that Egypt was the pyramids, the mummies, the Nile and all the other ancient places and tumbes. I was mistaken. Egypt is the Egyptian people with there culture and with there kindness. We made this 2 day Bahariya trip with my wife from 24-25/09. Our guide Mohammed Sabagh from the first minute until the last was the best you can find. The trip started exactly on time and we did all of the thing's that they offer. We visited the black desert climbed to the highest mountain were the view from the top is breathtaking. We had a bath at a cold spring water tank. Visited the crystal mountain with its crystal rocks. We hade fun doing sand boarding. We entered the white desert and sow allot of stone formation that have taken their shape from the wind and sand. Before the sunset we camped there and just relaxed looking at the sun hiding behind the desert and the stones.. The dinner in the desert in front of the camp fire was delicious. After that we hade a night walk with our guide Mohammed looking at the stars. When we returned to the camp there was a big surprise for us. My wife's birthday is on the 25/09 and our guide hade brought a birthday cake just for her. Best birthday ever for my wife. We talked, laughed and hade a fantastic night by the fire and under the stars. In the morning we woke up in time to see the sunrise. Our driver prepared our breakfast and then we left for the oasis town to see the English mountain and to have a swim in a hot spring water tank. I can write more and more and more about our experience there but I will use what our guide Mohammed tolled me. If you don't see, smell, listen, tast and tuch by your self its like reading a book... So stand up and go write your own travel book! And do this lifetime experience with the best that you can find. Thank you guys and thank you Mohammed.

My family and I went on Christmas to Egypt with Nile Valley Travel. We stayed a couple of days in El Cairo and then we wanted to feel the experience of spending a night on the egipcian desert.
Mohammed our guide showed us all the beauty of the white and black desert. We really enjoy a beautiful night under the stars with an amazing chicken barbecue and a long chat around the fire.
My advice is to take with you winter clothes it could be quite cold!
Strongly recommended.

We like the desert and we went many times to see it. But Egypt and this desert black and white are unique! Also to sleep there with our excellent guide Mohamed Sabagh was a real Bedouin experience, not a fake for tourists!
Egypt is safe, we have 2 children 9 and 6 years old and we always felt safe.
Do it with this company and let’s travel again!
