White Desert Egypt Tour TripAdvisor reviews
An Unforgettable Experience in the White and Black Desert and the Bahariya Oasis. - I had an amazing and truly memorable tour with White Desert Egypt Tour. At first, I felt a little hesitant and worried because I was traveling alone. However, after booking... read more the trip, when I arrived at Bahariya Oasis and met Mohamed, the tour organizer, I immediately began to feel happy and comfortable. All my worries turned into hope and excitement for this beautiful experience.
From the very beginning of the trip, I felt as if I were surrounded by family, which made the experience even more comfortable and enjoyable for me. The White Desert, with its unique natural landscapes and stunning white rock formations, was an unforgettable experience. The Black Desert, with its beautiful geological formations, was also amazing. In addition, visiting Bahariya Oasis was a different and truly enjoyable experience.
My guide, Mohamed, was excellent and very helpful. He made sure that the trip was enjoyable and comfortable throughout. The transportation service was also very good and well organized, and the food was delicious and especially enjoyable after a long day full of adventure.
The service was excellent from the beginning until our return to Cairo, and the organization was outstanding. The driver was cooperative and respectful and always made sure that we were comfortable throughout the journey.
The tour was full of adventure and breathtaking natural scenery. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to discover the beauty of the Egyptian desert in a unique way, especially solo travelers who may feel nervous about embarking on a new experience.
This is definitely an experience worth repeating!
Thank you to White Desert Egypt Tour and our guide Mohamed for the excellent organization and service, and for making this trip an unforgettable experience! π

Where Silence Speaks: Six days as a solo traveller - Surrounded by endless dunes, fascinating rock formations and a sky full of stars, my trip to the Black and White Desert was the perfect escape from everyday life.
I... read more spent six days exploring the desert as a female solo traveller with Mohamed, Mahmoud, Abed and Zihaza (our camel) hiking, camel riding and camping. During the day, I hiked through astonishing landscapes with Abed and Zihaza, met Mohamed and Mahmoud for a freshly prepared lunch, continued our hike and arrived at the carefully prepared camp site at around sunset. There, we had dinner and Bedouin tea before spending the night under an endless blanket of stars. Our route took us through an incredible variety of landscapes: Crystal Mountain, Agabat, small and big valley, Old and New White Desert, Djara cave and finally, the Black Desert.
While I was free to immerse myself in the breathtaking landscapes, soak up the quiet and peace of the desert, Mohamed and his team took care of every detail. Their friendly, helpful and respectful manner made me feel safe and comfortable throughout the whole trip. My personal wishes and preferences were taken seriously, making the experience feel truly individual and tailored to me. I would like to emphasise the delicious food prepared every day: Mohamed put great value on fresh and diverse meals throughout the trip, from breakfast (my favourite: Kishk!) and light lunches to dinners featuring chicken, meat, duck or pigeon prepared over the fire β I am genuinely amazed by the Bedouin way of cooking!
I would recommend this incredible adventure to anyone looking for an authentic desert experience.
Thank you (shukran), Mohamed, Mahmoud and Abed, for an unforgettable journey!
