I loved everything about this amazing trip but watching the sunset and starring at stars was so tranquil for me, this experience is healing and rejuvenating and I highly recommend Ahmed Diab’s tour for fellow adventurers. Thanks Ahmed

My trip to Cairo was totally amazing! I spent my birthday around the pyramids at Giza Plateau ( my lifelong wish ). Egypt has been on my bucket list for a while,tell you what; it was worth every penny I spent on it. Long story short, my friends and I decided to go on a desert adventure but I’m still not entirely sure how we got so lucky to have met a tour guide named Ahmed Diab who picked us up at oasis restaurant somewhere in Bahariya. He drove us around for hours in his traditionally decorated SUV taking us from one beautiful desert to another, patiently waiting for us to take pics and enjoy ourselves in the sand followed by a small oasis in a desert for a quick swim and some more pics ;) Ahmed was organized and prepared for everything. He set up a big tent at the white desert with sleeping bags and blankets, then started making dinner for us while we were lost in a fiery sunset. He grilled some chicken, even cooked us some delicious soup, rice and veggies etc not to mention how nicely he decorated our table with candles! 😍We were completely mesmerized with the entire scenery under the stars. To make things even more magical, he cooked us a Bedouin tea which we couldn’t get enough of.In addition to that he entertained us by playing music and sang for us along with another Bedouin…Guys this stuff can only be seeing in the movies right? But no, this is a true story, an experience we will never forget thanks to this amazing guy AHMED. Later in the night he set up additional two smaller tents so the four of us can be more comfortable. In the morning he prepared us breakfast, he made sure we were happy from the beginning to the end and for that we would like to thank him with our story. Please look no further, ask for Ahmed Diab, he’s your guy, your tour guide! ❤️…

This was the trip of a lifetime! I can't recommend it enough. Ahmed was a real life Mcgyver - from his outrageous driving in the desert, knowledge of the area, to cooking a gourmet meal in a tent with the most basic elements. You have to camp in the White Desert! The stars, the sand, the amazing scenery, the isolation - it is all worth the 4 hour drive from Cairo. And so many interesting stops along the way to really appreciate the area - Black Desert, Crystal Mountain, Aqabat Valley for sandboarding, and El Haiz for the hot springs. One tip... Bug repellent. The flies in the desert at sunset and sunrise are relentless.…

We had a great time with Ahmed. He's very informative and thorough in explaining each place we go. We were able to capture a lot of amazing pictures from all the places we stopped. When we got to our final destination, white desert, we caught a really nice sunset and a phenomenal meal was prepared for us followed by traditional tea by a campfire. In the morning we were given breakfast and coffee before we made our way back from the safari. I would highly recommend Ahmed and his team. Thank you for everything. If we ever return to Egypt we will book all of our future activities with Ahmed. I highly recommend booking your desert safari here.…
