The Ultimate Sinai Desert Adventure

A desert safari is a quintessential Sharm El Sheikh experience, offering a stark and beautiful contrast to the turquoise waters of the Red Sea. Whether you are navigating a 400cc quad bike across 30km of golden sand dunes, steering a rugged family buggy through mountain passes, or enjoying a serene camel ride at dusk, the Sinai Peninsula provides a dramatic backdrop like nowhere else on earth. These excursions typically take you deep into the 'Echo Valley' and include stops at authentic Bedouin camps where you can sip traditional habak tea and learn about the nomadic culture that has thrived here for centuries. From adrenaline-fueled 'Mega Safaris' featuring paragliding to soulful 3-day yoga retreats in Zen tented camps, there is a desert experience tailored for every type of traveler.

Planning

Historical Context

The Sinai has been a crossroads of civilizations for millennia, from ancient Egyptian turquoise miners to the pilgrims visiting Mount Sinai. The desert landscape has remained largely unchanged for centuries.

Photography Tips

  • Use a 'pancake' lens or a sealed camera to prevent sand ingress
  • A UV filter is essential for the bright desert sun
  • Keep your phone/camera in a sealed plastic bag when not taking photos

Insider Tips

  • Bring a small backpack with wet wipes—you will be covered in dust
  • Don't wear white clothing
  • Buy your scarf at the Old Market beforehand if you want a better price and quality than the safari center shops
  • Check your quad bike's tires and brakes during the practice run

Our Partners

  • In partnership with Viator, a TripAdvisor company, to provide the world's most trusted booking experience.

Fun Facts

  • The Sinai Desert is over 60,000 square kilometers.
  • The 'Echo Valley' is named because the surrounding granite mountains create a perfect natural acoustic echo.
  • Bedouin tea is often made with 'Habak', a wild mint that grows in the desert.

Cancellation Policy

Enjoy maximum flexibility with free cancellation up to 24 hours before your scheduled departure on most tours. Instant confirmation is available for last-minute bookings.

Unforgettable Sunset Ride

The quad bike safari was the highlight of our trip. The guides were professional and the sunset over the Sinai mountains was spectacular. The tea at the Bedouin camp was a lovely touch.

Perfect for Families

We booked the family buggy and it was great. Our kids (8 and 11) loved the bumpy ride and felt very safe. Much better than just staying at the resort all day!

Great Value for Money

Booked the $14 quad tour and was pleasantly surprised. It was exactly as described. Very dusty though, so definitely buy the scarf they offer at the start.

Mega Safari was Amazing

We did the 7-in-1 safari. The camel ride was short but fun, and the paragliding was a total rush. Incredible to see the desert and sea from above.

Authentic Experience

The Bedouin dinner and show were better than expected. The stargazing afterwards was the best part—the sky is so clear once you get away from the city lights.

Thrilling Adventure

I've done safaris in other countries but the Sinai mountains make this one unique. The terrain is more varied and the echo valley was a cool stop.

Excellent Organization

The hotel pickup was on time and the equipment was in good condition. Our guide, Mo, was very funny and made sure everyone was comfortable on their bikes.

Must do in Sharm

A bit touristy at the Bedouin camp, but the actual driving part across the dunes was exhilarating. Wear old clothes as you will get covered in sand!
