This Marsa Alam desert safari is an amazing journey into the Eastern Desert by 4x4 Jeep, discovering the beautiful landscape of desert and mountains while watching the sunset over the horizon. Included are a camel ride, a quad bike experience, and an insight into traditional Bedouin life with dinner and entertainment in a Bedouin setting.
Afternoon pick-up from the hotel in Marsa Alam comes by 4x4 Jeep vehicle, driving to the meeting point at Sheikh Malek, 25 km north of Marsa Alam Airport. The drive continues for approximately 22 km into the desert, with three stops along the way: an Acacia tree, a panoramic view of the desert from a hilltop, and an introduction to the Eastern Desert’s history from a mountaintop. Arrival at the Bedouin village brings a tour and stories about Bedouin life and traditions, with Bedouin tea and a traditional water pipe on offer. A quad bike ride through the desert follows for about 40 minutes, taking in the landscape, before a leisurely camel ride offers a magnificent sunset view from the mountain. A barbecue dinner in the heart of the mountain follows, with mineral water and soft drinks included, along with an entertaining Bedouin show featuring belly dance and dancing horses. The evening closes with stargazing through a powerful telescope before the night drive back to the hotel in Marsa Alam.
The best time is between October and April. The weather is cool and pleasant for visiting temples in Luxor and Aswan. Summer (June to August) can be very hot, with temperatures exceeding 40°C.
The drive takes approximately 2.5 to 3 hours each way via the Desert Road, covering about 220 km (136 miles).
