Private dinner in the Agafay desert

A table set well away from the common area, with its own service. Nobody at the next table, and nobody walking past.

What it is

The camps serve dinner at long shared tables, which suits most evenings. This is the other option: a table set apart, far enough that you hear the music rather than sit inside it, with a waiter assigned to you alone.

It is the setting most people choose for a proposal. We have arranged enough of them to know that what fails is never the decor: it is the timing. So we agree the hour, the moment the table is lit, and when the photographer appears, if there is one.

When to go

After dark, and worth combining with the hour before it on a ridge away from the camp. Sunset first, then the table: that sequence is the one that works.

Frequently asked questions

Can you arrange a proposal?
Yes, and it is one of the bookings we take most seriously. A table apart, dedicated service and a timing that works the first time. Tell us a few days in advance.
How much does it cost?
It is quoted with your booking, since it depends on the camp and how far apart you want the table. Ask us and you have a price the same day.
How far ahead do I need to book?
A few days, not a few hours. The camp has to set the table apart and assign service to it.
Can we have flowers or a cake?
Both are arranged on request. Tell us when you book and we pass it on.
Will there be music?
Audible from your table rather than on top of it. If you want a silent camp, say so and we place you accordingly.
Can we combine it with the sunset on the ridge?
Yes, and it is the sequence that works: the ridge for the hour before dark, then the table once it is night.
