Excellent, highly recommend them! - I recently booked the half day quad bike adventure. Communication is excellent, pricing is very competitive and we had an excellent time on the quad bikes. They message the day before to reconfirm pick up and remind you of the time. I've previously booked through Falcon for the boat trips around Ras Mohammed and White Island and can highly recommend them!

Quad bike fun! - Fantastic time!! We all had a brilliant time on our afternoon quad bike adventure. The staff were fantastic, very attentive and friendly. The camel ride was quick, but a good laugh (take dollars for tips). The evening fire show and bbq was great. Even my picky son ate well. The night time ride back was good fun.

Amazing Company with some fantastic trips on offer - We used Falcon at the end of March for 2 trips, quad biking and the boat trip. Quad Biking - excellent morning adventure, transfer from the hotel was prompt and extremely clean, once we arrived at the quad biking we purchased scarfs for £3pp the whole experience was just amazing the team that was with us where all super friendly, we arrived at the tent for tea and cold drinks, we had the opportunity to ride a camel which we did, we a experience I won’t forget. Boat trip - we again was picked up from outside our hotel and taken to the port where we all received a briefing and given the name of the boat, the boat was stunning, we did 3 stops (2 for snorkelling) and the last one at White Island, some of us aren’t strong swimmers but the team provided life jackets and rings to hold onto and swim with the team. Food was cooking on board was delicious something for everyone from meatballs, chicken to pasta and salad. All soft drinks and wifi included in the price. Would definitely recommend, paid on the day for both trips.

Amazing experience - We used Falcon adventure excursions in Hurghada last year so they were my go to this year when we were in Sharm. Another great morning on a quad bike. We were collected from our hotel, on time. Driven to the quad biking safari area. Greeted by friendly staff. All kitted out and off we go on a great quad adventure. We chose not to have a camel ride but others did. The stop at the Berber tent was lovely. Tea drinks, few souvenirs.(take small change with you) .great quad biking back to base and a private transfer back to our hotel. Highly recommended them

Amazing day in the Sinai Desert with Falcon - Can’t recommend this trip enough, it was fantastic from start to finish. Booked while we were still in the UK, communication via Facebook Messenger was prompt and helpful, not pushy at all. We chose 4 single quads (myself and Husband, 45 and sons 19 & 14), followed by a camel ride. Very reasonable for what we got, and all staff were friendly and fun. We have some amazing photos and memories- how many people can say they’ve ridden quads and camels in the desert and had tea at a Bedouin camp?? Bucket list stuff!

Great value day out - Great fun going through the desert on a quad bike. Guides and staff all looked after us throughout. I don't know whether it was because we went on a Sunday in March but it was just us two plus one family buggy so felt like a private tour. Excellent communication via mobile beforehand, picked up promptly from the hotel. On the day take some cash if you want to buy photos/videos, cold drinks or head scarves.

Reliable service and quick to respond - Found Falcon Adventures via some groups online, they had good reviews so we contacted them whilst still in the UK to book some trips. Have to say their communication is excellent, very quick to respond both before we went and when on holiday, and answered every question we had without issue (and we had a lot of questions which they took the time to answer). In the end we ended up booking 4 trips, before adding on 2 more whilst there. We sent then our passports for the Luxor trip and they took care of the rest. We paid a deposit before arriving and this was extremely simple via online payment in GBP. However they insisted on a meet and greet the first day which was a bit of hassle taking almost an hour out of our day for what was essentially a complete waste of time and could have been done online. Worse still the rep told us we'd be charged in GBP but ended up in USD so got hit with a fee. After it came through on the phone I refused to pay for the other activities this way and insisted on using the same method as the initial deposit. To be fair they arranged this very quickly but no idea why this isn't the default option to begin with. Luxor (by air) - this was a long day but the sites are fantastic. By all accounts this is a better trip than Cairo according to our research and everyone we spoke to who had done both. Our guide picked us up at the airport and took us straight to the Valley of the Kings to visit a number of tombs, then onto Hatshepsut temple. We got there early enough we missed the rush so was ideal. The guide seemed very pleasant and knowledgeable. I can't say I was too fussed about the alabaster trip, it is part of the tour but waste of time for me, but was only around 30 mins. We had another quick stop at Colossi of Memnon which are quite impressive before going to a restaurant across the road for lunch, which was delicious. After lunch we headed to banana island which is an optional extra, I very much regret this decision, there isn't much to see there and there are some animals which are kept in tiny cages. The boat trip to the island was nice, I would rather there was an option just to take the boat trip without stopping on the island. We also asked to stop at Luxor Temple which is where the boat trip ends, this was quoted as 400 LE extra (about £8) beforehand but when we asked the guide he wanted nearly £200, claiming he needed paid plus transport (we were right there!). In the end we didn't argue and instead moved onto the highlight of the day Karnac temple. After seeing some of the sites we were asked if we wanted some time to ourselves in the temple or just go to the airport (at 4pm, our flight was 7:30pm and the airport 15 mins away). I got the impression the guide was looking to finish up early, hence why he'd no interest in taking us to Luxor Temple earlier. In the end we agreed to look around and meet back up at 4:45. Thank goodness we did as it turns out our flight was delayed by 2 hours. We were then given 3 options, 1 go to the airport anyway, 2 pay 35 euro for a hotel room to sit in for a couple of hours, 3 go to Luxor temple after all without a guide and the driver would pick us up later to go to the airport. We opted for Luxor temple which was great, and picked up on time and back to the airport without issue. Even though our plane was 2.5 hours late getting back our transport was still waiting to get us back to our hotel. If you have the choice between the 2 optional trips, banana island or Luxor Temple, it is the Temple without a doubt. Day we enjoy the day - yes, would we recommend - yes! Luxor is amazing and a must see. Ras Mohammad (by boat) - without doubt one of the highlight of our holiday. Picked up on time, took 40 minutes or so to get to the Marina which was fine. The boat isn't the biggest but lovely and modern and comes with Wifi which is a bonus. There are soft drinks whenever you want them, mostly water and lemonade. The staff on the boat were amazing, especially Ahmed. We opted to go diving which was so easy as they take hold of you and take you down, all you need to do is breath and equalise. The experience is amazing, as was the snorkelling. We enjoyed this so much we opted for a 2nd dive at the next stop. The lunch was delicious and plentiful. The swim to white island is a little strenuous if you're not a good swimmer but we were fine and again white island was a great experience. In all this was a thoroughly enjoyable day and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend, it really is a must do. I'll add a separate note on guides and photographers at the end. Ultimate desert experience - once again picked up on time and taken 20 mins or so to the desert. Should note we booked travel insurance which specifically included quad biking. We've done in the UK a few times before so didn't have concerns but better safe than sorry. We were glad to see helmets available when we arrived as none of the videos online have anyone wearing them. In fact we passed hundreds of quads during our day and we were the only ones wearing but better safe than sorry. The quad journey was amazing, a good 10 miles through the desert and no real danger that I could see (just keep your distance). Really enjoyed the quads in the dark too (they have lights) although this was shorter. The rest of the trip wasn't great, a lot of waiting about in a tent, a very short camel ride guided by small children, the dinner was pretty poor as was the show which we waited a long time for, and to top it off the performer was pulled away by another guide just before he was to perform at our table. Would I recommend this - probably not the desert experience but definitely the quads on their own, we really enjoyed this. City tour - again collected on time and onwards to Farsha cafe. We sat upstairs in a kind of waiting area for around 45 minutes whilst they tried to find us somewhere to sit down the stairs, eventually we were given some seats downstairs but only stayed there for around 20 minutes before moving on to the fountains and mosque. These were nice enough and we were given some time to look around ourselves. Finally we moved on to Soho square which is beautiful with all the lights and again given some time to ourselves to look around and watch the fountain show. Did we enjoy this trip - yes. Would we recommend - probably, it was nice enough. Watersports - this is something we booked once we got there. Our initial trip was cancelled 15 minutes before we were due to go due to wind which is understandable but would have hoped for more notice. The 2nd time round we also had to move to later in the day due to wind, again at 15 minutes notice which is a little annoying as by this stage you've got your stuff and are ready to go. When we finally got picked up we were taken a short 5 min trip to the beach were we did the watersports. We started with the tuba, this was amazing, we all loved it and would highly recommend, so much fun. We finished with parasailing which we've done before in Turkey. This was a little disappointing as it lasted less than 4 minutes. When we've done previously we were up a LOT longer and higher and further. I can't remember how the prices compared, could be we paid more in Turkey. Would we recommend - certainly the tuba, so good, parasailing was reasonably cheap if you've never done it you probably should. Ras Mohammad (by bus) - another trip booked whilst we were there. Picked up with no issues and collected quite a few other groups at various hotels plus a stop for snorkelling equipment so took us a while (nearly 2 hours) before we got to the park. This is only a half day trip so not a huge itinerary. You basically see the gate of Allah followed by some amazing snorkelling (best we did with exception of boat trip, better than house reef). Next to the Mangrove trees, earthquake crack and magical lake, all of which are close together and none of which you spend very long at. Then a quick stop at a tent and back to the hotel. Did we enjoy this trip - yes and would recommend. Guides - this term is a bit loose, I kind of expected someone who chats to you a gives you some information as you go. This was certainly the case in Luxor, our guide was good. However the guide for Ras Mohammad boat and City Tour (Charlie) was little more than a chaperone, Shark who was our guide for Ras Mohammad bus was much better and more chatty, if fact he really was very popular and engaged well with a number of different nationalities including a nice playlist on the bus, wish we'd had him for all our trips. Photographers - for certain activities a photographer is sent with you, which you then pay for at the end if you want. On the boat there were 2, one on the boat and one underwater. The boat ones were very poor quality (I know what I'm talking about) however the scuba ones were very good quality and we did buy these, however they spend so much time getting you to do silly poses you actually don't get to enjoy the experience of the dive. We actually deleted most of the pictures and just kept the natural ones. Thankfully the photographer only went on the first dive. The quad photographer was fine and a lot less intrusive which is the way it should be. The Ras Mohammad photographer was by far the worst, even when told (quite strongly) we didn't want pictures they kept insisting and taking them anyway. This was particularly annoying during the snorkelling, you don't get this experience very often so you just want to take it in but you're getting constantly pestered to come over for pictures. In the end we had to swim away and even then he's following us about. Similar experience on the watersports, no issue on the tuba as you're just enjoying it and they're snapping away, however on the parasailing you're up there for literally less than 4 minutes and want to take everything in and look about and instead this guy is shouting to you to do poses, constantly banging on the cable to try to attract your attention, not cool. My advice is for all trips with a photographer is to decide if you really need pictures, if not then make it clear to them up front that you don't want any pictures. Even if you do want them, tell them to cut out all the stupid poses which for some reason they've got it into their heads that everyone likes. So to sum up, did we enjoy our trips, yes most definitely. Would we use Falcon again and recommend - again yes without a doubt. Ok a few small issues here and there but these were minor. The biggest issue is the photographers which they really should address and ask them to tone it down.
