Buggy Safari in Sharm El Sheikh: description
Buggy Safari in Sharm El Sheikh — an active ride through the Sinai desert on powerful off-road buggies. The route passes through sand dunes, mountain landscapes, and open desert tracks, so this program suits tourists who want thrills, speed, and vivid experiences.
A briefing is given before the start, after which the group follows the route behind a guide. The ride includes photo stops as well as a visit to a Bedouin camp, where you can try traditional tea and feel the atmosphere of the desert.
A buggy is more comfortable and stable than a regular quad bike, so this program often suits those who want an active safari but prefer a more comfortable seating position. The approximate duration of the trip including transfer is 2.5 hours.
