worst excursion ever the people are rude and have no respect for women _br/_ i paid for 2 quadbikes and only got given 1 to share!

Review by: Amanda C	January 2012
A must do for anyone who likes looking beyond the hotels, clubs and beaches, it was so good we did it twice. Sunrise over the Red Sea was breathtaking and the trip further into the mountains the following day was even better. Karim our guide ensured we were always well looked after and knew some fascinating locations to stop and take in the scenery. Never a dull moment and the whole team were great so many thanks to everyone; Tim, Janet ,and the boys who provide the support, it was a great experience. We have been Quad Biking before in Luxor and this time it was even better.

really good experience. the bus was a little late collecting us (running on Egyptian time!!) but the experience itself was very good

Review by: Leonard	December 2011
Brilliant. I purchased this as a suprise for my girlfriends birthday whilst we were on holiday. Apart from the pick up time being earlier than expected everything went exactly as advertised. Due to the time of year there were only the two of us and the guide who was really good. Very chatty, polite and friendly. Pick up from our hotel was easily arranged and was bang on time. I was initially a bit dubious about making a booking in the uk for an excursion in Egypt and expected all sorts of issues. I was very pleasantly suprised. Very well organised and professional outfit. I will _br/_ definitely use Viator again in the future.

Even though I have ridden quads at home this is not to be missed, an early start, 5am but what a sunrise !!!!! go through Viator and miss all the Tour Opperator price hikes !!!

Review by: Leigh C	October 2011
A fantastic experience with our guide Karim, well worth getting up early to see the sunrise. Loved every minute.

Review by: TINA R	September 2011
Prompt pick up by staff. The staff were really friendly and guided us through the safety procedures. The quads were big enough for myself and teenage son. Just the best laugh I had in ages, would recommend this trip to all who visit Sharm el Sheikh!

Review by: Sarah N	July 2011
This was a really good and very enjoyable experience, even with a little child with me. The locals (when we stopped for a break) were extremely friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend this trip.

Great, good value for money.

Review by: Martin G	June 2011
Very rushed, no information passed on.

Review by: graham p	May 2011
A bit worried about booking trip in UK which didn't help when I got to resort and had difficulty contacting operator but that was down to me not understanding the correct number.I arranged pick up to go Quad biking in desert they turned up a bit late but not a problem.The guides were very friendly and I had a great time,I would use Viator again to book my excursions thank you

Excellent.

Review by: arsalan a	January 2011
loved it. very enjoyable for adults and children. need to be over 12 years - but they dont really check.

Review by: mcfly	December 2010
Except for being collected in a taxi that can only take 5 people but we squeezed 6 in it, this trip was really, really good. Was great heading out in the dark to find a good location to watch the sun rise. Although we didnt see it actually rise - we saw the sky go red as the sun was behind a mountain, Then we moved locations and there was the sun. It would have been better had we either stayed where we were to see it come over the mountain, or move locations sooner to see it rise properly. If you take these minor things away, it was a really good trip and will do the sunset next year.

What a fantastic experience we had. The tour guides and lead driver were great. This tour was the highlight of our vacation in Egypt, probably even above the pyramids of Giza. We had so much fun my daughter and I so much so, that I believe we were the only ones that bought copies of the DVD they made of our trip. We will definately do this tour again if we come back to Sharm El Sheikh!

Review by: Karen A	November 2010
We enjoyed the quad biking but felt it was left too late in the day. We went at sunset and half way through the tour became completely dark. I felt this was a safety issue plus it's not that enjoyable if all you can see are brake lights!

Review by: Lindsey B	October 2010
Very good trip. Picked up by Karim who gave us a private tour. Helmets provided. We had lots of fun and he looked after us well. Visited a tent where you are given drinks (make sure you take some money because you are charged for these) and had the option of a camel ride at an extra charge. The only thing I was concerned about was we had to sign a disclaimer before we did the trip although we thought the trip was suppose to be fully insured. Overall excellent trip.

Review by: Deborah C	October 2010
EARLY START WAS PICKED UP AT 5.15AM WOULD DO IT AGAIN PHOTOS OF THE SUN RISING SUPERB.

Review by: Caroline R	October 2010
Fantastic trip, well worth doing and booking before you go. Only the two of us and the guide. He spoke excellent english and was very friendly. Got picked up on time no problems. Worth every penny.

Review by: Anthony S	September 2010
A great trip, we did the sunrise and was well worth the early start. We were picked up from our hotel and taken out to the quads. Make sure you take a scarf as it is very dusty we didn't but they had them to buy. We left in the dark and rode into the desert our guide then stopped so we could watch the sunrise. ~Great pics and a great experience well recommended

Review by: Howard S	September 2010
Quad biking was amazing, unbelievable value would recommend it to anyone, but you should definitely have one bike each.

Review by: Alice T	September 2010
Absolutely brilliant! Worth every penny. If you are going as a couple it's well worth doing two separate transactions so you get a quad bike each. Also, definitely take the head scarf they offer you (you can take your own or pay 30LE, about £3.50, to buy one of theirs). So much fun! I didn't want it to end!

Review by: Andrea R	September 2010
Absolutely not worth it. I had taken several quad tours in different part of the planet and this one waf, by far, the worst one. So called video operator were very insistent and stressfull, driving their car too close to our quad to make a video for selling. We drove through some nice desert locations but never stopped once! No taking picture was possible! We stopped, for a long 45 min. in a dirty area overcrowded by quads and cars just to be bothered again by the video operators and soft drink sellers. The desert sunset spirit was not there at all. Forget it!

Review by: Stephen C	August 2010
Excellent trip. well organised and was collected fron the hotel as arranged and on time. There was just our family of 3, a guy from italy and the tour gude who spoke excellent english. We were provided with helmets and my son aged 7 was able to ride with me - no problems, as other places do not allow children. We went at a fair speed but the quads were easy to handle - even for the girls - lol! Would definitely recommend.

Review by: Christopher H	August 2010
Watching the sunrise was amazing, we were a little apprehensive getting driven into the desert in the middle of the night, but the guide was very good, their overall operation was excellent and the quad biking was stunning. I would definitely recommend this activity and I would do it again if I had the opportunity

Review by: Kim R	July 2010
This was by far the best trip out of all our holiday. Watching the sun set in the sinai dessert, amazing.

Review by: Leona B	July 2010
With my own private driver and tour guide, you couldn't ask for better service. The drive through the desert was amazing and watching the sunrise on top of the mountain was sublime. The bedoin camp was a bit touristy but that is understandable. A very excellent tour and well worth the money.

Review by: Kirsten J, United Kingdom	May 2010
I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Egypt. It's a fun way to see the beautiful desert and the guys that take you along the route thoroughly enjoy themselves and their jobs, and are open to any questions and make you feel very much 'at Home'. Thanks guys!!!

Review by: Sarah B	May 2010
Had a fantastic time quad biking in the egyptian desert! It was so much fun and the views were amazing. My only negative feedback is that we were picked up from our hotel 40 minutes late and we had been up at half 3 to ensure we were ready for 4.00AM so it was quite annoying when we were not picked up until 4.40AM. We were also the first people on the bus so there was no excuse and the sun was already up by the time we had started. The guy videoing everyone throughout the excursion was also very pushy trying to make us buy a copy. We didnt but it put a bit of a downer on the experiance. Other than that me and my partner had a fab time and recommend the excursion to people of all ages!

Review by: Tracy F, United Kingdom	April 2010
Despite the early start to see the sunrise it was definitely worth every penny paid. Definitely ride your own quad bike and don't be a passenger. Pick up was on time a few minutes earlier actually and tour guide was great fun in the desert. Would highly recommend this excursion

Review by: Diane T	April 2010
After being picked up an hour late i was given a quad that kept breaking so after stopping and starting i was finally given a replacement. after are shortened 2half trip we stood in the desert waiting for the bus to take us back to hotel after it still hadn't arrived after 45mins we my friend and i got a taxi, which the guide did pay for. a farce from start to finish.

Review by: Colin J	February 2010
A great experience but an early start at 4.45am! A good time to go, though, as the group is smaller and you can get some speed up on the quads!

Review by: Andrew B, United Kingdom	January 2010
Great experience, which catered for all abilities. Overall enjoyable and good value for money.

Review by: Stephanie C, United Kingdom	December 2009
A brilliant experience that is a must do if you are in Sharm!

Review by: Tony P, United Kingdom	November 2009
Again well organised with a superb ride into the desert, not too many in the group so it was even better.

Review by: Robert D, United Kingdom	November 2009
Excellent time, this is not a "maybe" it is a "definitely" it is amazing fun for people of age 16 dont forget scarf n googles also they have many other ATV vehicles for hire. "Truly unforgettable"!

Review by: Robert D, United Kingdom	November 2009
Excellent time, this is not a "maybe" it is a "definitely" it is amazing fun for people of age 16 dont forget dress a little warm and scarf & googles

Review by: Sue M	November 2009
Great experience. Would recommend to wear long or three quarter lenght trousers, wear a scarf,as very dusty and wear protected eye wear,even swimming goggles will do. Did the sunset trip and was beautiful,can't wait to go again.

Review by: Ben N, United Kingdom	October 2009
We did the sunrise trip, it was fantastic although we had a really early start the views and scenery made up for it. I would like to thank guide who took us off on our own tour which made it that little bit extra special.

Review by: Richard Mark D	October 2009
Well organised. Pick up on time. Quads good fun but group can only go as fast as the slowest person. Saw other quad bike groups out but ours was the only one supplied with crash helmets. Dont forget a scarf to keep dust out of mouthnose.

Review by: Anonymous, United Kingdom	September 2009
Great fun! Ladies make sure you get your own bike, don't be tempted to sit on the back of your husband, boyfriend,son, brothers, much better to do it yourself. The quads are all automatic so its basically stop and go! Anyone can do it! Make sure you have a head scarf and good sunglasses, goggles may be better, but don't be tempted to go without, you'll regret it!

Review by: Amy L, United Kingdom	August 2009
Great fun, excellent way to see the Egyptian desert and Bedouin settlements. Seeing the sunrise was picturesque and worth the 4am wake up. The guide was very polite and helpful, and helmets were provided for added safety.

Review by: Anonymous, United Kingdom	August 2009
It was brilliant! Very well organized. Instructors were very helpful and friendly. I was amazed by the safety as well. Other tours I had seen didn't have helmets and bikes seemed of less than standard. I would definitely recommend anyone to have a go at this.

Review by: Georges T, France	August 2009
Lots of fun in the desert.

Review by: Anonymous, United Kingdom	July 2009
The tour company was excellent, taking very small groups. This made it a much more personal service and meant that we didn't spend all our time in enormous dust clouds. They were also the only one I saw that used crash helmets.

Review by: Sandra B, United Kingdom	June 2009
We did the sunrise quad trip, and it was fantastic. The only thing that let this down was trying to arrange pick up. We called the number provided on voucher, and they said they would call us back. They didn't, and we had to get the hotel staff to call again to arrange pick up as no one spoke English. But the trip is worth it.

Review by: john p, United Kingdom	January 2009
The best fun I've had in years. Our guide was the best guide we could have wished for thanks a lot, we will come back and do the sunset trip once again, many many thanks.
