Sun protection is non-negotiable
Bring high-SPF sunscreen, sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat — shade is minimal on the plateau and reflection off pale limestone intensifies UV exposure.
Bring small bills for tips and photos
Local handlers and guides appreciate cash for quick photo ops and assistance mounting camels; keep small denominations handy.
Wear closed, sturdy shoes
ATV terrain is loose sand and compacted gravel; closed shoes protect feet during quad riding and when moving around the ruins.
Listen to your Egyptologist guide
Follow route limits and signage at archaeological sites — guides enforce rules and can steer you to quieter viewpoints for photos.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
Protects against strong desert sun during open-plateau exposure.
