    Una notte nel deserto bianco è stata incredibile! Abbiamo esplorato il deserto nero e la Montagna di Cristallo, ed è stata un'esperienza unica. La natura incontaminata è mozzafiato. Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti!

    Ein unvergessliches Abenteuer! Die weiße Wüste und Bahariya-Camping waren fantastisch. Die Schwarze Wüste war ein besonderes Highlight und die unberührte Natur ist etwas, das man erlebt haben muss. Sehr empfehlenswert!

    Потрясающий тур! Белая пустыня и Бахария буквально захватывают дух. Черная пустыня была особенной, а природа настолько чистая и нетронутая, что просто невозможно отвести глаза. Обязательно рекомендую!

    A fantastic experience! The White Desert was breathtaking, and camping overnight under the stars was unforgettable. The Black Desert was also intriguing in its own right. A delightful escape into pristine nature.

    C'était une expérience incroyable! Passer une nuit dans le désert blanc et explorer la nature préservée était tout simplement magique. Le Mont Cristal et le désert noir étaient magnifiques. Je le recommande vivement!
