I highly recommend taking this trip by plane. We booked less than 2 days in advance, there were almost no tickets left. We had business class seats to go. My name was wrong so I had to buy another ticket at the airport, maybe last seat on the plane. The agency was fair and deducted the amount from the total price agreed, very correct! From there, everything went very smooth. We were expected at the airport in Cairo by our guide Zenab and our driver. We had a private tour just for ourselves. We could go at our own pace. Zenab was a great guide and person. She was very welcoming and did her best to please us at all times. Overall, I totally recommend this travel agency, they are very thrust worthy and will guide you from and back to your hotel entrance. Thank you!!

I didn’t know much about the Black or White deserts in Egypt until I saw a TripAdvisor review of Tamer Safari. I am so glad that I booked this tour as the landscapes are truly unique.

After arriving in the Bharaiya oasis, we had lunch and set off to go driving through the national parks stopping at various locations to view the natural wonders.
