Great afternoon and evening experience - We went for the dark sky experience expecting a pretty ordinary trip but from the start it was good fun. First the bumpy ride through the desert then the camel ride. We hadn't planned on do the camel ride but changed our minds and this made our day. The Bedouin camp was an insight and then onto the hill climb to watch the sun go down. All this before the star gazing part. I struggled a bit with the telescope to see Saturn but overall the stars were quite visible. Our guide was very informative about the night sky and it's history which added another layer to the experience. The photographer was great especially the more candid photos showing us really enjoying ourselves

Star gazing in the desert - What an experience. Loved every minute. The culture experience, the camel ride, to the sun setting over the mountains. The star gazing just topped of the whole experience. They took some amazing pictures which dont even do the experience justice. Definitely recommend. Staff were very accommodating and ensured we had the best experience

Stargazing Hurghada Sept' 25 - Picked up on time and met at reception by our guide who was friendly and welcoming.
The trip includes a journey via 4x4 out to the desert to visit a Bedouin Villiage, where you are welcomed with traditional tea, can ride a camel, sample some herbal medicines and watch a demonstration of traditional bread making. The journey can get a little uncomfortable over the 45-50 mins as you travel across, but the driver was well skilled dealing with the conditions.
You can then climb up and watch the sunset behind the mountains, closed toe shoes would be recommended, the ground can be a bit slippy.
Food was delicious, a simple buffet style meal consisting of salad, rice, bread, vegetables and a choice of meats followed by fresh fruit and drink.
Our guides positioned the telescopes and explained the views of different planets and stars, their explanation was clear and informative.
You have the chance to have some photographs taken by a photographer throughout (there is a extra charge if you would like, and photos are sent via link). Water is available, and soft drink
Once we laid down to view the stars, our guide explained and identified different constellation and stars, and we had an amazing view of the milky way for an hour or so in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Overall, we had a very enjoyable evening and experience, and captured some great photographs and memories.

Excellent value and super fun - If you don't anything else do this. The 4x4 ride is worth the ticket alone. You take that long drive out in the desert, in that crammed jeep, the fun starts there, music blaring a super ride. Then you get to the campment out in the desert, super well organised. Just in time for a camel ride of you like, see someone make bread and check out some souvenirs. You climb a little hill just on time for the sun set eat a nice light dinner (you need light because those dunes are not forgiving). Super astro guide Farez explained everything, lined up those scopes like a pro and we got to see the milky way which was amazing. Then back into town. Overall a superb time had by all. Thanks to the team and our driver Amer, total legend (sorry if I mispel his name)

Best adventure in Hurghada - The experience to watch the stars in the desert was really cool!
Our guide explained us all the star signs that were visible that night and watching the moon through the telescope was impressing.
I would definitely recommend this trip!
