A quad bike is thrilling. But a Buggy Safari Sharm El Sheikh? That’s a whole different level. Race through the Sinai desert in a powerful open-air buggy, dust flying, mountains towering on all sides, the sky blazing red and gold at sunset. No experience needed — just pure adventure. This is the trip that people talk about long after their holiday ends.
Off-Road Through the Sinai Desert
Your guide leads the convoy through raw desert terrain — open tracks, rocky passes, and wide sandy valleys framed by ancient Sinai mountains. The buggy handles everything, and so will you.
This is not a slow scenic drive. It’s a real off-road experience that will have everyone in the car laughing, screaming, and loving every second.
Several photography stops are built into the route. The Sinai landscape — jagged red rock, golden sand, vast open sky — is unlike anything you’ve seen before.
The sunset session at 5:30 PM is the crowd favourite. The mountains turn amber, the sand glows, and the silence of the desert hits you in a way that’s hard to put into words.
Bedouin Tent — Tea & Culture
Halfway through the adventure, the convoy stops at a traditional Bedouin tent deep in the desert. Sit down, breathe in the silence, and enjoy freshly brewed Bedouin tea while your guide shares stories about the ancient nomadic culture of the Sinai.
It’s a genuine, unhurried moment that gives the whole trip real soul.
Optional camel riding is available here for those who want to go full Sinai explorer.
If you’re traveling with family or a group of friends, the buggy is the better choice — you share the experience together in the same vehicle, making it more social and even more memorable.

FAQs
Do I need driving experience to operate the buggy?
Not at all. The buggy has just two controls — gas and brake. Your guide gives a full briefing before departure and stays with the group throughout. If you can drive a go-kart, you can drive a buggy.
What's the best time to go — sunrise, afternoon, or sunset?
The 4:00 PM sunset session is the crowd favorite. The light is golden, the heat has eased, and watching the sun drop behind the Sinai mountains from the desert is genuinely breathtaking. The 5:00 AM sunrise is ideal if you prefer peace and cooler temperatures.
How many people fit in one buggy?
Buggy×2 seats 2 people, Buggy×4 seats 4 people. This makes it the perfect excursion for families or groups of friends who want to share the experience together in the same vehicle.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothes you don't mind getting dusty, closed shoes, and a scarf or keffiyeh to protect from sand and wind. Sunglasses are a must, especially for afternoon and sunset sessions.
Is the Buggy Safari suitable for children?
Yes! Children can ride in the buggy alongside an adult. It's one of the most family-friendly desert excursions available in Sharm. Please mention the ages of children when booking.
