We selected the 2 days 1 Night White Desert (private) as we were intrigued by its unique scenery. We were picked up from our hotel and we were taken to an oasis where we were served with traditional Egyptian food. Our tour guide named Hani has been amazing throughout the ride to our destination. We had many stops at the Black and White desert for taking photos and the experience which we have encountered was unprecedented. Hani selected a beautiful spot to setup our camping site and cooked for us fried chicken which were delicious to say the least. I dont think that there is any other such place in the world that you can hear the sound of silence. We spent the night talking with Hani about Egypt, talking about the stars above the clear sky at the desert and we did enjoy listening to him about his 13 years of experience in the White and Black desert.
I want to provide an advice to those interested in doing this activity: There are unregistered guides for this activity with lower prices. During our departure, one such group was stuck in the desert due to tyre problem (they didn't have backup tyre). Hani spent around two hours to track them down and help them in an area of more that 300 square kilometers. If you want to play safe, do select authorized guides as we did with Mina Wasfy and ask for Hani as a tour guide if he is available.

Amazing.
An extraordinary experience, breathtaking scenery, an incredible guide who taught us a lot. We even experienced a sandstorm in the desert to make the experience even more unforgettable. We are delighted to have booked this tour.

Great excursions with Mina that we recommend 200%
Excellent organization of Mina for 4 days for our trip with private guides (Abu Simbel, Valley of Kings , 1 night in the white desert): everything was perfect (responsiveness , professionalism ). We recommend Mina without hesitation!! Thank you for everything!!
A little comment on the white desert for other travelers: for one night I don't know if it's really worth it compared to the distances (we left at 6am then 5h drive , again 1h drive in 4*4 to go to the white desert , one night in the desert -magic - and return at 8h in the morning to Cairo .)
That's a 12-hour drive back and forth.
But it’s still great 😉
To be taken into account simply in organizing the trip.

Guide and organizer of quality tailor-made private excursions
We spent 2 weeks in Egypt with family and experienced unforgettable moments that make you want to come back. Thanks to Mina who listened to us and organized all our excursions according to our wishes and our route in the country. Quality tailor-made, and incredible experiences. We were able to visit all the must-see architectural treasures in Aswan, Luxor and Cairo, we were able to take a cruise for a few days on the Nile and a 2-day excursion in the desert (to do!). The team of guides, drivers, all very professional and pleasant. Egypt is magnificent, at no time did we have a feeling of insecurity. We walked alone several times in the towns and villages where we were staying without worry. I without hesitation recommend Mina and her entire team!

Magic Egyptian trip
First trip to Egypt, I wanted an Egyptian guide. Thanks google, I found mina directly on it and knew it was him. We agreed on an 8-day circuit with the main sites to visit, criss-crossing the country, by car, night train, boat, horse-drawn carriage and 4*4 in the desert for a magical night. Intense, rich, and great to be amazed every day and learn a lot about this magical civilization for thousands of years. The whole team of guides is great, great exchanges, laughter and great energy. I recommend without hesitation! To be both free and autonomous and guided every day.
Thank you Egypt 🙏 thank you Mina 🙏
Choukran!

Worth it!
It was amazing we will never forget this night in the white desert. Mina sent me the whole plan before and answered all my questions. Omar took care of everything and was so kind. We really appreciated our time with him and the camping night. The food was amazing as well! You will not regret it. The only bad thing was the hotel for the second night that wasn’t really great.

Plus que parfait
Hany offered us an exceptional time in the desert. Everything was made with a lot of taste and care: from the welcoming lunch at his home before leaving, to the delicious meals he cooked entirely on site during the bivouac, to the smoked Libyan tea he slowly infused for us in the late evening. The path in the desert and its various landscapes was sublime, beyond one can imagine. Hany’s stylish decoration and music adds to the atmosphere. Friendly and laid back, I have no doubt that he’s the best! (also good English speaker). The overall trip from Cairo was perfectly organized by Mina, with fluid communication through whatsapp

Magic moments!
Mina organized for me two days and one night in the white desert. I left with a girlfriend and we were picked up by a taxi leaving Cairo which took us to the guide. It was two magical days! Between the kindness of our guides and the beauty of the landscape, these two days will remain the most beautiful of our entire trip. I advise you all to trust Mina and go on an adventure in the White Desert!
