Israa confirmed my...
Georgia_V, October 2026
Israa confirmed my reservation immediately despite the very late hour and responded promptly to every question I had. I truly appreciated the peace of mind this provided.
Amr, who was both our driver and guide, approaches his work with care and respect for his travellers. He was punctual, polite and friendly throughout the trip. His cheerful spirit and resourcefulness brought a positive energy to the journey and made it a fun experience.

A must-do experience!
edp2026, October 2026
Great trip with a combination of relaxing, action, and culture. Amr is a punctual and service-oriented guide and driver, top! Swimming in the salt lake and the jeep safari in the desert are unforgettable, but also the visit to the cultural highlights of Siwa. Good food and basic (but good) hotels. The journey itself is long (about 740 km one way), but not strenuous, comfortable car and driver who drives on! I'm considering going again next year with my wife!
