4×4 or quad safari<\/span><\/h2>\n

For many, ‘desert’ is synonymous with a 4×4 route, as we are used to seeing in major motor races, such as the famous Dakar. Well, in Egypt it is possible to get into a 4×4 vehicle and drive for miles on tracks (or even off-road) to feel the adrenaline of speed. Among the vehicles proposed by the organizing companies are quads and buggies, but there may be others.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can you think of a more peaceful and quiet place for a meditation session?

Astronomy lovers set their sights on special environments that meet a number of requirements. Above all, they should have little light pollution, be free of natural or artificial features such as large mountains or buildings, and have cloudless skies most of the time. Well: the <\/span>Egyptian desert<\/span> has all these characteristics, making it an ideal place to contemplate the stars and planets at any time of the year.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Bedouin

A Bedouin experience<\/span><\/h2>\n

The nomadic cultures of the desert have something difficult to see in others: a plus of adaptability and respect for the environment, being clear that the human being is just one more element for the proper balance. For this reason, its members always develop a patient, friendly and hospitable character towards those who come to learn about their traditions, with due respect. In the case of the <\/span>Egyptian desert<\/span>Despite their tendency towards a sedentary lifestyle and the adoption of some modern habits and resources, the Bedouins have largely maintained their ancient way of life. So organizing a cultural experience in contact with them will be an ethnographic journey into the past.<\/span><\/p>\n
