Please avoid this travel agency
I paid in advance for this trip but the contact person answered to 2-3 messages on whatsapp and then just stopped, not before confirming my booking. They never showed up at the hotel and they didn't cancel as well. Two kids were very disappointed. I'll make sure to avoid this travel agency - Get your holidays.

Amazing night sky.
Great experience! We went in the desert and done mountain climbing, then went to the bedouin village, done camel riding, ate bedouin bread and then had bedouin dinner. The best part is the stars. The night sky in the middle of the desert was amazing. The sky full of stars in the absence of light pollution. And the telescope we saw planet Mars, the stars Polaris, Vega, and Antares. Great experience with the astronomer Mr. mohammed.

AMAZING AND PEACEFUL
AMAZING!!! Wow I really enjoyed the time spent on the Mountain looking over Hurghada, the setting is surreal. Then For sunset and it was so Peaceful simply looking out at the horizon and the stars as they came out!!! My 16 year old loved it as well. Mohamed made it great in many ways. First he was very knowledgeable about Astronomy. Secondly simply a great person and was very accommodating to what we wanted. We stayed longer in some settings.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hurghada.
How much does Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing cost?
+
Prices start at $45 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hurghada usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hurghada is not rushed.
Is Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hurghada, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hurghada can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hurghada and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Makadi Bay: Jeep Safari Adventure with Star Gazing start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hurghada within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hurghada?
+
On Outty we rank every Hurghada experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hurghada Diving Adventure one Day with two Dives Boat Trip, Hurghada to Cairo: Pyramids & Museum for First-Time Visitors, Scuba Diving Full Day Boat Trip W/Lunch & Transfer from Hurghada. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hurghada?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hurghada?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
