Overview

Safari tours offer visitors the chance to escape the crowded sites of Cairo and the Nile Valley and experience the peace and tranquillity of the empty desert and its green Oasis.

Apart from the new Bedouin desert-dwellers, the area is uninhabited.

Deserts provide the perfect atmosphere for some really interesting activities and great adventures.

You’ll have a chance to feel the adrenaline rush while driving on the crest of a sand dune or sliding down the dune, or sand surfing. There will also be chances to see indigenous wildlife.

You’ll meet Bedouin people and see their interaction with the environment, and enjoy the desert way locals would around a campfire at night. You can experience the clearest night skies as you drink traditional Bedouin tea and enjoy a traditional dinner slow-cooked in the heat under the sand.

A popular desert safari activity is sandboarding. Sandboarding is a slightly more forgiving version of snowboarding but gives a similar adrenaline rush.
