Introduction
In Egypt’s hot climate, you always want a special kind of thrill. Buggy riding is a unique mix of quick speeds, sand waves flying from powerful wheels, and plenty of adrenaline! This type of transport is more comfortable than classic quad bikes. This “iron horse” suits passengers and drivers of all ages. After rolling over the curves of the desert terrain, you can take breaks and try real Bedouin tea.
The tour on this unusual vehicle starts right from the hotel. An experienced instructor will teach the simple basics of handling a buggy. The route runs not far from low, textured mountains. The tourist group is formed up to 10 people. The whole extreme adventure lasts 3 hours. Children are allowed, which opens up opportunities for a friendly family holiday. After one and a half hours of fast rides, you can stop at a Bedouin village and enjoy one of the best teas on the eastern coast.
