The one people come back for

Swim in the Red Sea
on your horse

After the beach we take the saddles off and walk the horses into the water until they start to swim. You hold the mane, they do the rest. It is the calmest, strangest, best hour of most people's holiday — and it is included in the 3-hour ride for €47.

When the sun goes down, we ride into the desert

A camel caravan into the Eastern Desert and a night at our Bedouin camp — bread baked in front of you, coffee roasted over the fire, live music, and a sky with no city in it. €59 per adult, €29 per child, transfers included.
