About this experience

Leave the resort lights behind and journey into the timeless Egyptian desert for an evening you will never forget. As the afternoon sun softens, ride a camel into the heart of the Eastern Desert to reach an authentic Bedouin camp nestled among the rocky hills. Welcomed with sweet mint tea and warm hospitality, you'll experience the genuine traditions of Egypt's desert nomads. Watch a blazing sunset over the dunes, then gather around the campfire as your Bedouin hosts prepare a traditional BBQ feast of grilled meats, fresh salads, and homemade bread baked in the sand. As darkness falls, a local musician plays the rababa (a traditional one-string instrument) and shares songs passed down through generations. The grand finale is the stargazing. Far from light pollution, the desert sky reveals thousands of stars, the Milky Way stretching across the heavens in breathtaking clarity. Your guide points out constellations, planets, and shares Bedouin star lore that has guided travelers through this desert for centuries.
