The Tour Guide Who Even Controlled the Weather - Honestly, we didn’t know what to expect with Fayoum, but wow—this day turned out to be one of the best parts of our entire trip, and that’s 100% thanks to Eino! From the second we met him, Eino felt more like a fun friend than a tour guide. He was so genuine, easy to talk to, and really went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time. The whole day was packed with awesome experiences—from driving through the desert to see actual whale fossils (yes, in the desert!), to the magic lake views, the only natural waterfalls in Egypt, and ending the day with lunch, chill vibes, and sandboarding at camp. And the photos?! Eino knew all the perfect spots and angles. Like, this man has an eye—he must’ve been a photographer in another life because the pictures he took of us are unreal. We didn’t even have to ask—he just made sure we had memories to take home. He even managed to control the weather so we could have the best day possible! We’re still not sure how he pulled that off, but we’re not asking questions. If you’re heading to Fayoum, trust us: you want Eino leading the way.

Awesome adventure - Eino was a very informative and nice tour guide I really enjoyed my time with him. He wasn’t over the top and was just perfect he helped me with giving proper tips and explained all the food and gave me great recommendations. I was very happy with his service and will chose him when I return for another trip. And he took some awesome pictures for me

Family adventures in the Sahara - Eino and our driver Yasser gave us an incredible experience in the Sahara. They service included pickup, food, activities and drop off. All of our needs were considered and taken care of. Plus it was SO FUN. We loved the jeep tour in the Sahara and seeing whale fossils. It was a perfect way to break up the touring in Egypt for our kids who wanted activities. We also went sandboarding and saw the only waterfall in Egypt.

Great trip, great guide, well organised and well worth doing - Highly recommend this trip. We were a family of 4, Granny, Mum and two adult children in their early 20s from the UK. We were very well looked after by our guide Islam and our expert drivers. We were able to arrange for us to be picked up from our Hotel in Cairo and dropped off at a villa in Tunis village which we really appreciated and Islam made sure we were settled there safely. The drivers struck a good balance between some fun dune driving and not scaring my 80 year old mother too much! We had plenty of time to contemplate the expanse of desert travelling between different sights. The highlights for us were the whale bones and landscape at Wadi el Hitan but you get so much more as well. I am still removing sand after a go at sandboarding!

Marvelous!!!!!!! Do it!!! - I recommend this excursion to everyone especially for the guide (Abdallah) who is good, helpful, cheerful and never intrusive! A pleasure in a sometimes suffocating Egypt! The places seen are splendid from the whale desert to the magic lake! Much better than I expected. A beautiful jeep tour plowing through the desert dunes! Varied and surprising landscapes! It's worth getting away from Cairo and the usual tourist sites for a breath of nature with few people and beautiful landscapes! Well done abdallah keep it up and good luck for your future!!!!
