Full Moon Desert Experience,

Yoga and Stargazing

in El Gouna & Hurghada:

​

The full moon is always something special for us. It’s the moment when we adapt our ‘Sunset Experience Trip’ to combine the magic of the setting sun with the rising of the new moon over the desert mountains.

​

An evening where silence, nature, and the rhythm of the desert come together.

The experience also includes the option of yoga and personal meditation, followed by a bonfire under the stars with traditional Bedouin music.

​

A rare moment to slow down, disconnect from the noise, and fully experience the atmosphere of the Red Sea desert.

Practical Information & Program Overview:

​

We will meet in El Gouna and head towards 'Wadi Billeh'. Once a flowing river, now a dried-up riverbed rich in natural beauty and history.

​

The guides will share insights about the wadi and its surroundings and will present three different ways to exit the wadi, depending on your preference and physical condition:

​

1. The 'Corridor', a challenging climb, ideal for the more athletic participants.

2. The 'Cave Route', a slightly easier hike that leads up to the higher plateau via a cave.

3. The 'Princes relaxed Option', enjoy the stunning scenery from the comfort of a 4x4 safari vehicle.

​

After a short stop at the so-called “Grand Canyon of Egypt”, we will continue either hiking or riding in a 4x4 across fossilized coral landscapes toward a 200-meter-high plateau. From here, we’ll take in the breathtaking sunset and the rising full moon.

​

At the plateau, the Ababda Bedouin team will welcome you with tea and prepare their special 'Jebena coffee', a traditional Bedouin delicacy. This aperitif is followed by a 'dinner under the stars'. The typical Bedouin menu includes: Rice, Mesaka’a, Marinated grilled chicken, Tahini, Flat baladi bread, Fresh vegetables and Fruit.

Vegan-friendly if you skip the grill and Gluten-free​.

​

Throughout the evening, there will be moments of yoga, silence and personal meditation.

 

To complete the experience, Hassan will play music on his 'oed', a traditional Egyptian string instrument, around the bonfire.

​

The only thing you need to bring is a small bottle of water, which can be refilled during the trip. Easy walking shoes or light hiking boots. Wear comfortable clothes and for the rest something warm to put on after sunset.
