I went on a solo adventure, so I entrusted my life to Ahmed. And thank God I did. He drove me around the dessert, detailling everything to the dot, he allowed me to do my thing without ever rushing me. I swam in both, the waterfalls and the Magic Lake, it was such an experience! Though I did it, sandboard its not my thing, and they sent me about it with this 10 year old kid who didnt speak english, dont expect any assistance whatsoever. Luch was okay. I think its a must do for sure! Who gets the chance to say that theyve swum in an African dessert!
Joining up with Ahmed our guide and driver through The White Desert of Faiyum Oasis made the experience worth the drive to get there. Once we reached the meeting location, we switched from a small car to a 4x4 and went off road. There were several stops to take in the scenery & all were beautiful. The first stop at Lake Qaraoun both peaceful & beautiful. Then hitting the dunes to our next stop, at Wadi El Rayan waterfall(s), there are actually 5 falls in close proximity which made for a few great photos. Back to some more riding around the dunes. Our boys were sure we would not make it up the big hills, of course we did. We climbed to the highest peaks & took in the view of the valley & Magic Lake below. Next we descended to Magic Lake for a bit of wading in the water. The last stop was at a Bedouin village where our boys went Sandboarding & we had the most delicious traditional Bedouin lunch. It was time to return to the meeting location & return to Giza. Ahmed was a very courteous and kind man, we throughly enjoyed our time with him. Our drive to The White Desert was very uncomfortable; we were in a small car with 3 adults and our teenage sons who are over 6 ft tall. It is a two hour drive from Cairo to the meet up location. So make sure that the transportation fits your group size. The car we were in would fit 4 but with 5 (including the driver) it was an unpleasant trip.
Wow, what a blast! This 4x4 Fayoum safari with sand surfing and waterfalls was pure magic. Dunes, waterfalls in the desert, sliding down like kids so much fun! Big cheesy thanks to our superstar guide Sherif! you’re the desert king! Super fun, super safe, super nice. Made the whole day unforgettable. ❤️ Do this tour you won’t regret
I've always dreamed of going on a desert safari in Egypt and Alba Tours made my dream come true!! Mostafa was the perfect guide and it was such an incredible experience. And the views, I swear, pictures don't do them any justice. I had so much fun and time absolutely flew by!
This Fayum Oasis 4×4 desert safari was an incredible experience from start to finish. The pickup was on time, the drive was comfortable, and the desert adventure was so much fun. Dune bashing and sandboarding were real highlights, and the views across the desert were stunning. Visiting the Wadi El Rayan waterfalls was a beautiful bonus and a great photo stop. Our guide was friendly and professional, and the lunch was tasty. Perfect mix of adventure and nature!! highly recommended!
Great experience in the desert! Fun way to break up a trip from pyramids, temples and tombs. Sherif was an amazing guide!
Fayum oasis A fantastic experience! The guide was thoughtful, fun, and kind. I highly recommend it! The lunch was remarkable!
Clean car. Timely pickup. Respectful and patient driver and Tour guide. Picked up at location of our choice. Tour company kept open communication and timely responded to queries.
We booked this at 10pm the night before the trip having been let down by a scammer on another listing. I was contacted by WhatsApp within ten mins of booking, was sent pictures of the car that would be picking us up and by 8am we were on our way to the Desert for what was a great experience. Very professional company with great communication.
