Sharm El-Sheikh: Ultimate ATV Quad, Stargazing & BBQ Dinner

1.Ultimate ATV Quad, Stargazing & BBQ Dinner

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 4,084 reviews · from $35Our pick

You’ll ride a quad or dune buggy for 45 km through South Sinai, stop for Bedouin tea, ride a camel at sunset, eat a BBQ dinner, watch Tanoura and fire shows, and study stars through telescopes. Guides such as Bishoy and Emad have earned praise for keeping large multilingual groups organized.

“The day was amazing, everything we could have hoped for, it was a great experience we will never forget! Everyone was super helpful and friendly especially Emad he was the best! We think the only room for improvement really would be that the groups be smaller, and easier to manage and organise especially since there were so many different languages to manage which led to delays and waiting while everyone was briefed and sent to the right places but other than that we thoroughly enjoyed the experience!”
