Weekly Trips

Each departure has a minimum group size, and the page says how many more travellers are needed before it's confirmed to run — a different number from how many seats are for sale, and the one that decides whether you travel. If a trip doesn't reach it, we contact everyone booked, move you to another date or refund in full. You pay nothing for a trip that doesn't run.

Because how full a vehicle is is our business, not a sales tactic. You see whether a date is still open, almost full, or fully booked — which is everything that changes what you can do. Behind it the inventory is real and locked: if two people reserve the last places at the same moment only one booking succeeds, and the other is offered the waitlist rather than quietly oversold. What we will tell you is whether a trip has reached the minimum group size it needs to run, because that is a fact about whether you travel at all.

Not through this site. Reserving holds your seat, then a member of the team contacts you to confirm details and arrange payment directly — the same way our private tours work.

Up to ten places in one booking. If that date can't fit all of you we'll say so when you reserve and offer you the waitlist or another date. Beyond ten you're most of a vehicle already, so message us and we'll usually run it privately for a similar price per person.

Join the waitlist on the trip's page. Nothing is held and nothing is owed, but if someone drops out we work down the list in order — and we'll tell you first when the next date for that trip goes up.

Because Egypt's seasons are real operating limits rather than a preference. The Western Desert is genuinely dangerous in high summer and we don't run it between May and September. Each trip states its own season, and Alexandria is the one we'd point you at in July.
