About this Tour
Experience the perfect blend of adventure, culture, and relaxation on this unforgettable desert safari in Hurghada — ideal for families, couples, and groups.
Trade Hurghada’s city lights for a relaxing evening in the Eastern Desert filled with adventure, culture, dinner, and stargazing.
Your experience begins with hotel pickup from Hurghada. Depending on your hotel location and the number of pickup stops, the transfer to the desert meeting point may take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
After arriving at the desert checkpoint, enjoy an exciting jeep drive through the mountains and desert landscapes before reaching the Bedouin camp in around 35 minutes.
At the camp, you’ll be welcomed with traditional Bedouin tea or hibiscus drink while learning more about Bedouin culture and desert life. You’ll also have free time to relax, explore the camp area, and enjoy the peaceful desert atmosphere before sunset.
As the sun sets over the mountains, enjoy a freshly prepared candlelight dinner served in the desert camp.
Later in the evening, continue with a guided stargazing experience including telescope observation of stars and planets, along with a simple introduction to constellations and the night sky.
Please note that this activity is a complete desert experience that combines transportation, jeep adventure, Bedouin culture, sunset, dinner, and stargazing activities throughout the evening. The astronomy session takes place during the final part of the tour after dinner.
Because this is a real desert safari experience, roads can be uneven and bumpy at times. Comfortable shoes are recommended.

This excursion was amazing
This excursion was amazing, all the staff members were very friendly and aimed to do all they can to give you the best experience possible. Our guide was multilingual and have explained everything to each of us in languages we could understand which goes to show how much they care about their customers. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to have a calm evening with their loved ones but please be aware of the back problem warning (although they will adjust the speed/bumps for you) Thank you Rafi and his great team!
