Spider Car Hurghada — Buggy Safari in the Desert
A spider car is a lightweight open buggy built for sand — a roll cage, four wide tyres and nothing between you and the desert. On this spider car safari you drive it yourself across the open desert outside Hurghada, with a guide leading the way and a stop at a Bedouin village for tea and a camel ride.
The spider buggy needs no licence and the controls are simple: throttle, brake, steering wheel. Take a two-seater buggy to share with one other person, or a four-seater if you’re coming as a family.
