Hands down the best part of my two weeks journey in Egypt - Black and White Desert wasn’t originally on my itinerary, as I had already spent time in Siwa. But after discovering Elzaghandi Travel, I was drawn in by their stunning photography and decided to reach out—and I’m so glad I did. From the start, they were responsive and genuinely focused on creating the right experience, not just selling a package. Everything was well-organized and ran smoothly. I arrived early from Siwa, and they even arranged a 5am pickup and welcomed me with a delicious home-cooked breakfast in Bahariya—an unexpected and thoughtful touch that made me feel at home right away. My guide, Eyad, made the experience truly special. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about the desert, and also an excellent photographer—he helped me capture some of the best photos of my trip. . Anyone interested in photography should definitely book a tour with him—he understands angles, lighting, and composition, and knows exactly how to guide you to capture the best shots. It felt like I got lucky with a two-in-one experience: exploration and photography. On top of that, the food during the desert camping was outstanding, easily one of the best meals I had in Egypt. Overall, a seamless and memorable 10/10 experience. I only wish I had stayed longer. Highly recommend!

Truly one of the highlights of our trip to Egypt - The whole experience was surreal. The scenery felt almost unreal, especially when the sun went down, and we gathered around the campfire. It honestly felt like we were on another planet. Eyad’s cooking was exceptional. As a Vietnamese person trying Bedouin food for the first time, I didn’t expect to enjoy it so much—or eat that much! Every dish was delicious and truly memorable. The service was absolutely top-tier. Everything we could possibly need was provided, including chargers, Wi-Fi, and even hot water for skincare. We were worried the desert would be freezing at night, but Eyad reassured us that everything would be fine—and he was completely right. We ended up having such a comfortable and peaceful sleep in the middle of the desert. We never regretted coming here. The experience was unforgettable, and the service was truly worth every penny.

The experience was unforgettable, and the service was definitely worth the money.

Magical and memorable experience - A unique experience that remains vivid even days later. Eyad proved himself to be helpful and accommodating right from the start, even in the days leading up to the tour, giving me advice for the rest of my trip in Egypt. The desert experience was more incredible than I could have imagined: choosing a private tour with a local operator who has lived in the area since childhood was the right decision. Eyad engaged me by introducing me to his culture and answering all my questions. The evening was truly magical: from setting up camp and preparing dinner to drinking tea in front of the fire. Thank you for these memories!
