About this experience

This unique experience takes you away from the polluted night sky of Hurghada.
At 2:00 PM we are heading out into the desert valleys. Starting with a 30-minutes beach buggy ride we continue with 10-15-minutes camel ride.
Observe Bedouin bread making and try it with your own hands. See Bedouin women at the trading post.

Are you exited to watch the sun going down from the magnificent safaris? This is what we are here for!

Using our deep-focused GPS telescope "MEAD", you can explore the wonders of space, the stars, and the innovative sky of Egypt, Hurghada, and the Red Sea after sunset.

After this experience we are about to return to the Bedouin tent for a romantic summer time while a Bedouin man grills a bardawi. Finally, we conclude our wonderful journey with one of our professional scientists, followed by a drive back to the hotel.
