Where you sleep in the Agafay Desert
Three categories of tent, across the camps we work with on the plateau. We match the camp to your party, then you choose the tent.
There are more than a dozen camps on the Agafay plateau and they are not interchangeable. Some are built for couples and go quiet at eleven. Others run musicians every night and suit a group of friends. A few sit far enough out that you see nothing else from your terrace, which costs you twenty minutes of driving.
We work with a short list we have stayed in ourselves. Rather than asking you to pick from photographs of places you have never been, we ask who is travelling and what you want from the night, then place you in the camp that fits.
The three categories
What follows is common to every camp we sell. The detail varies, and the photographs we send you will show it.

Questions about staying
Which camp will I be staying in?
We match the camp to your request, taking account of who is travelling, the dates and what you want from the night. Once we have held it, we send you photographs of the tents that are available so you choose the one you want. The camp is confirmed in writing before you pay.
Why do you not list the camps on the site?
Because the right camp depends on your trip, not on a page. Two couples travelling the same week can need two different camps. We would rather ask you three questions than let you guess from a photograph.
Do the tents have private bathrooms?
Every category we sell has a private bathroom with running hot water. The layout differs between camps, which is one of the things the photographs will show you.
Is there electricity and wifi?
Electricity, yes, usually solar with a generator behind it. Wifi exists at most camps but it is slow, and it stops at the edge of the communal area.
How cold does it get at night?
Colder than people expect, in every season. Winter nights can approach freezing. Blankets and heating are provided, but bring a jacket.
Can we book more than one tent?
Yes, and for groups it is often better to take a small camp in full. Tell us how many you are and we will price both options.
