Experience the quiet majesty of the Sinai wilderness with our Horseback Riding Safari, an unforgettable 2-hour outdoor excursion operating out of Sharm El Sheikh. This specialized tour runs every month of the year and is open to riders aged 7 and up. To maintain a safe, high-quality, and personalized experience, group sizes are strictly capped at a maximum of 10 participants. Whether you choose to ride during the refreshing hours of the early morning or prefer the dramatic colors of a desert sunset, this safari provides a peaceful, deep connection with nature away from the bustling tourist hubs.

Your adventure begins with a convenient pickup from your Sharm El Sheikh hotel at your choice of scheduled departure times: 8:00 AM, 9:00 AM, or the afternoon slot at 15:00. A comfortable, air-conditioned minibus will transfer you on a scenic 30-minute drive directly to our professional desert horse camp. Upon arrival, your safety and comfort are prioritized as an expert equestrian instructor assesses your current riding experience. It is essential to communicate whether you are a complete novice or an advanced rider, ensuring you are paired with a perfectly suited horse and placed at an appropriate pacing group. Instruction is tailored to all levels, offering a rare opportunity to train with purebred Arabian horses. Known for their intelligence, spirit, and endurance, mastering these beautiful animals in the Sinai desert provides a massive confidence boost for any rider.

Once you are securely mounted, you will head out into the vast desert plains for a comprehensive 2-hour trail ride. You will spend an hour riding deep into the rugged valleys, taking in the sweeping mountain vistas and the serene stillness of the desert landscape. Midway through the journey, you will guide your horse to a traditional Bedouin tent nestled among the dunes. Here, the group will take a relaxing 10-minute break to dismount, rest, and enjoy a warm cup of authentic, aromatic Bedouin tea. After soaking in the local hospitality and taking stunning photos, you will mount your horse for the return trek back to the camp. The tour concludes with a smooth transfer back to your hotel, leaving you back at your base by 17:00 for the afternoon slot.
