14:30Quad Safari & Mini Egypt Discovery
Adrenaline adventure and cultural discovery in one unforgettable experience!
Experience the very best of the Sinai Desert and Egypt’s iconic history in one practical, emotion-filled excursion! Start with an exciting Quad Safari through spectacular desert landscapes, followed by a cultural journey to Mini Egypt Park, where you can admire the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and other famous monuments in perfect miniature.
Part 1: Adventure in the Sinai Desert
The Sinai Desert is waiting for you! An easy, exciting, and adventurous way to explore the vast landscapes and mountains surrounding Sharm El Sheikh.
No experience required: you don’t need to be an expert rider! Our instructors will help you start with complete safety and confidence.
Single or double ride: drive the four-wheel quad on your own or share the experience with a companion.
Tip: bring a keffiyeh or head covering! Dust and sand raised by the quads can be intense. A head covering protects your hair, face, and eyes, while also offering sun protection. And don’t forget to take a memorable photo!
Part 2: Mini Egypt Park & Cultural Break
This unique second part of the excursion offers a fun and fast way to get an overview of all Egypt’s historical sites, without long transfers all the way to Cairo.
Admire the icons: be amazed by the perfect miniature reproductions of the Pyramids, the Sphinx, the Temple of Luxor, and much more!
Bedouin break: relax with Bedouin tea and, optionally, a short camel ride.

Extras not mentioned in the program.
No. A driving license is not required. The quad bikes (ATVs) are automatic and very easy to ride (only accelerator and brake). Before heading into the desert, you will receive a briefing and do a test ride.
To drive: a minimum age of 16 years is usually required (some centers allow ages 12–14 if the child is tall and well-built, but 16 years is the standard for insurance). As a passenger: children from 6 to 15 years old can generally ride behind a parent (double quad). Note: if you are traveling with children, it is recommended to book a double quad or a family buggy (car-style, with roll bar).
Yes. You ride in a convoy (single file) behind a guide. The speed is controlled, and guides are present to assist you if you get stuck in the sand. For safety reasons, racing or independent off-road riding is not allowed.
Scarf (Arafat): Essential to cover your nose and mouth from dust. Sunglasses / Protective goggles: Mandatory to protect your eyes from sand and wind. Long trousers: Recommended. The engine heats up and can burn your legs if you wear shorts. Closed shoes: Do not wear flip-flops; they fall off easily. Wear sports shoes/sneakers.
The camel ride is generally short—usually about 10–20 minutes. It is designed as a “taste” experience and a photo opportunity rather than a long excursion.
Exact limits are not always specified, but in general, if you weigh over 100 kg (220 lbs), it is kinder to the animal to skip this part or request a larger camel.

No. The real Pyramids are located in Cairo (about 6 hours by bus or 1 hour by flight). The “Mini Egypt” on this quad tour consists of replicas/models built in the Sinai Desert. They are perfect for taking “perspective-effect” photos, where it looks like you are touching the top of the pyramid.
This is included in the price of your package.
Scarf and protective goggles: if you don’t bring your own, you will need to buy or rent them at the center (around 2 USD). Photographer: a cameraman will film your excursion and, at the end, will try to sell you photos or a DVD (around 15–25 USD). This is optional: you are not obliged to purchase them.
Yes, but the terrain is uneven. Keep your phone in a zippered pocket or in a bag securely fastened to your body. The dust is very fine and gets everywhere: protect your camera lens. Most people stop for photos only during the designated stops (Echo Mountains, Bedouin tent, Mini Egypt replicas).
Sunrise tour: pick-up around 3:30–4:00 AM (cooler temperatures, beautiful light). Sunset tour: pick-up around 3:00–4:00 PM (the most popular option, includes sunset).
