Itinerary
Day 01Day Tour Itinerary
The adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Hurghada at 9:00 AM. You will be transferred by an air-conditioned car to the quad bike station, which serves as the starting point for the safari. Upon arrival, expert guides will provide a comprehensive 10-minute safety briefing and instructions on how to handle the quad bike, ensuring you are comfortable before the ride begins.
Once ready, you will start the engine for a 12-mile (20 km) journey through the desert. The route takes you across vast flats and sand dunes, offering expansive views of the morning desert landscape. The drive leads to an authentic Bedouin village, where you will take a break to experience local culture.
At the village, you will be greeted with traditional hospitality, including "welcome tea." You will have time to relax, smoke shisha, and listen to stories about life in the Sahara from your guide. The stop also provides an opportunity to observe Bedouin craftsmanship. After the visit, you will ride your quad bike back along the same path to the station. Finally, a vehicle will be waiting to transfer you back to your hotel in Hurghada.
