ATV Riding in Sharm el Sheikh: Quad, Camel & Desert Stargazing

Five desert activities in one evening: quad biking, camel riding, Bedouin dinner, live show and stargazing

An ATV riding activity in Sharm el Sheikh combining quad biking across Sinai Desert with camel riding, a Bedouin village dinner, traditional live performance and telescope stargazing. Pickup from your hotel at 4 pm, return by 10 pm. The guide speaks English, Italian, Arabic or Russian, and children from age 2 are welcome.

The experience

You start with twenty minutes of quad biking across the desert sands, stopping at a scenic viewpoint for photos before heading to a Bedouin tent for herbal tea and rest. The ATV itself is the centerpiece (you operate it across open terrain, not ride as a passenger), and the route gives you time to feel how the machine handles the sand rather than rushing through a single sprint.

After the quad section, you ride a camel for about fifteen minutes through the Bedouin village, then move to a larger tent for dinner. The meal is fresh and served under the stars with bottled water and soft drinks included. A traditional live performance happens while you eat. Before heading back to your hotel, your guide takes you into the dark desert to identify constellations, then hands you access to a high-powered telescope to see deeper objects in the night sky.

The whole experience runs from around 4 pm pickup to roughly 10 pm return, with an air-conditioned van handling the drives between stops. Quad bikes, camel ride, dinner, drinks, telescope use and the guide are all included. You can upgrade to private transfers and a private quad ride at checkout if you prefer not to share either leg.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Italian, Arabic and Russian.

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (2 to 13 years).

What's the quad biking part actually like, how fast do you go and how much control do you have?

You operate the ATV yourself across open Sinai Desert sand for about twenty minutes, then stop at a scenic point for photos and rest before moving on. The pace is yours to set within the terrain. It is not a high-speed race but a ride where you feel the machine and the landscape.

Do I need any experience to ride the quad bike?

No prior ATV experience is required. The activity suits all physical fitness levels, and your guide will brief you on the quad before you start. Children from age 2 are welcome on the tour, though they would ride with an adult rather than operate a quad alone.

What happens during the stargazing part? Is it just looking up or do I actually get to use the telescope?

Your guide takes you into the dark desert away from lights, points out constellations and explains what you are seeing, then you look through a high-powered telescope to observe objects like planets and star clusters that are not visible to the naked eye.

How much of the evening is spent at the Bedouin village versus traveling between stops?

The village section includes a camel ride of about fifteen minutes and dinner at a larger tent with the live show, so you spend roughly two hours there. The rest of the five-hour evening is split between the quad ride, the scenic stop, the herbal tea break at the first tent, the telescope session and the van drives to and from your hotel.

Is the dinner filling, and are there options if I have dietary restrictions?

The Bedouin dinner is described as fresh and served with water and soft drinks included. Dietary needs are not detailed in the operator's information, so contact them before booking if you have specific requirements.
