Great tour - This was the most enjoyable day of our trip to Egypt! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. Zizo wasn’t just a guide – he felt like a friend. He made us feel comfortable throughout the day and helped with whatever we needed. I never expected to have such a natural and fun experience without going far from Cairo. The sand, the scenery, and the atmosphere were absolutely stunning. The program was completely flexible according to our preferences, and nothing felt rushed. The lunch was both generous and very tasty. If you’re looking for more than just historical sightseeing in Egypt and want a bit of adventure, I can wholeheartedly recommend this tour!

Unforgettable Experience with Zizo - Zizo was amazing! We had a great time in Egypt – it was a truly wonderful tour. I recommend it without hesitation. Before coming here, I did a lot of research about Egypt, and I saw that most people were doing sandboarding outside of Cairo. But I’m very glad I did this activity just 2 hours away from Cairo with such a well-organized program. I highly recommend it. Zizo was very attentive and helped us with everything. The food was delicious, and the program is entirely customized to your pace – once you feel it’s enough, you move on to the next part.

Finding the unexpected - By far the best tour. No hustle. Nature at its best. My tour guide Khaled very friendly and attentive. I got to visit the lakes, walk the Circular mountain, the sandboarding session, and the waterfall at the Qaroun protected area. Great lunch with amazing view. Unfortunately I didn't do the Felucca ride.
