Amazing, just out of ordinary! - What a tour. When you think of Egypt you think about the pyramids but to be honest this tour is worth so much more for any traveler who loves an adventure. You must be able to handle long drive but the scenery is just out of this world. It’s one of the prettiest I have seen. You start with the black desert ( small hills/mountain with black rocks which is old lava). The best part of the tour is the afternoon in the white desert. You cannot imagine something like that. In the middle of nowhere white sand and white mountains everywhere. It’s amazing you stop to enjoy the view and have a chance to sand board if you want to. The drivers are so good at navigating the desert it’s impressive. You then go to find your spot in the desert where you will eat bbq chicken roasted directly on the fire and some delicious meals. You can enjoy a night with the night sky and all the stars. Breakfast after the sunrise and then back to Cairo. It’s about a 6hours of driving per day but you have stops along the way. If that’s to much there is a possibility to do this tour with 2 nights instead of one, which give you more time to enjoy each spots. I would recommend 1000% if you want to experience something different.
