A desert day of sand and water to remember - It was amazing to be surrounded 360deg with just sand dunes and mountains and to have lunch with more rhan enough to eat and drink at such a remote but beautiful place. The sandboarding was fun and fast and my son even cooled off in the magical lake. Abdalla our guide made sure we are satisfied the whole time with any needs. Highly recommend this day outing

Abdalla Egypt Tour Guide - Abdalla was an amazing tour guide! He picked us up on time and drove us out all the way to the Fayoum desert offering refreshments as well. We joined a driver with a 4x4 jeep and took a breathtaking drive across the middle of the desert. We saw fossils at the valley of the whales, went to amazing mountaintops for great pics and videos, refreshed ourselves in the magic lake, went sand surfing at multiple dunes based on our experience, ate an amazing lunch with Egyptian tea, and saw beautiful waterfalls. A day we will never forget and thank you again for the amazing memories. Truly a great day and will recommend Abdalla to anyone!

Abdalla was awesome!! - What an amazing experience from beginning to end! Abdalla picked us up and drove us to where we had to change into a 4x4 car! From there the adventure began, he adjusted the day to do what we preferred! He always made sure that we had water or snacks. We chose to do valley of the whales and from there sand surfing which was so much fun! He provided amazing photos and videos! We checked out magic lake and from there to a delicious lunch! He proceeded to have lunch with us and made sure we had what we needed! Then we checked out the waterfall afterwards. Had a day that we couldn’t even imagine, the 4x4 driver and Abdalla were great!!

Highly recommended tour! A must enjoyable one. - Amazing trip! Love it! At first, it's a bit scary because it's pretty unnatural to ride in a freaking desert! But it's worth it all! Our tour guide is a very cool guy; we hang out with him all day, he is very kind and knows a lot!

One day in El Fayoum - Wonderful excursion. Our guide spoke Italian perfectly (his name is Sheriff) he thought of everything. He took us to a small village near El Fayum, and with a jeep and a really good driver we entered the protected area of the desert where we visited waterfalls, landscapes, oases and beautiful natural lakes. We also had lunch in a village in the middle of the desert with the Bedouins, really delicious. Amazing, must do. Sheriff was very good and would be recommended to anyone who wants to have this type of experience.

Great time Great value for money! - At first our guide was exactly how you want your personal guide to be , he stood as a friend trying to fulfil our wishes and he made sure that this trip will be memorable!! Definitely worth the money as it is another type of experience ( not the usual European City experience) so Thank you Abdalla for this experience we will always remember it Highlight of the tour is the 4x4 tour of the desert, where our driver Ahmed at the end turned his Land Rover into a tent and we enjoyed a full and delicious barbecue dinner !!! PS sand boarding is fun but only do it if you have experience

Great time great value for money - A “full” experience with Abdalla that who acted not only as a tour guide but as a friend trying to fulfill our every wish. Highlight of the tour was the 4x4 safari ( tour of the desert ) the driver Ahmed made his Land Rover into a Bedouin tent and we enjoyed a generous and very very tasty barbecue meal on the Desert!!!! Unforgettable moments with two great guys Definitely worth the money Ps sand boarding is fun but it’s not for everyone so be very cautious , I didn’t fell down ;) but my wife did
