WENDEPUNKT is an exclusive experience in the Egyptian desert — for executives, entrepreneurs and high performers who, despite outward success, feel that something is missing. 5 to 7 days without signal, without a clock, without coaching. Just real silence, real desert and honest conversation. Led by Robby Schropp, who has lived in Egypt for decades.

Who is WENDEPUNKT for?

WENDEPUNKT is for people between 35 and 60 — entrepreneurs, executives and high performers who have achieved a great deal and still feel something is missing. People who function, but have long since lost themselves. People with depth and character who are ready to give themselves a week of real time.

Is WENDEPUNKT coaching or therapy?

No. WENDEPUNKT is explicitly not coaching, therapy or anything esoteric. There is no programme, no exercises, no guru. The desert itself is the experience — real silence, vastness and honest conversation when it arises naturally. Robby Schropp is your host and desert guide, not a coach.

WENDEPUNKT — Desert Experience Egypt | Back to Yourself. In the Heart of Silence.

You've achieved
what others only dream of.

And yet something feels empty.
Not on the outside. Everything runs fine there.
But inside — something is missing.

You function. You deliver. You're there for everyone.
But when did you last feel truly
like yourself?

What you need is not a programme.
Not more input.
But real breathing room — and the space to breathe again.

Lived Experience.
Not learned from books.

Robby has lived in Egypt for several decades, and the desert has become his second home.
Life in this extraordinary environment has shaped him profoundly. Not following a trend — driven by deep personal conviction.

Time with Bedouin families. Simple life in the vastness. His own experience of exhaustion, pressure and inner emptiness — and what it means to finally stop running from them.

I don't lead you.
I hold the space — and I look after you.

The person behind it

Robby Schropp.

“When I am asked who I am, the answer does not come easily — not because I don't know it, but because I have never defined myself through titles, positions or roles.”

What began as curiosity became home — a place of learning and the source of the most important experiences of his life.

“I have never chased the spectacular. I wanted to understand, to feel and to experience.” — Robby Schropp

Bedouin families, fishermen, companions — many of the people in his life today have walked beside him for decades. They showed him what true freedom means.

“It was never just places that fascinated me. It is people. Stories. Cultures. And the question of what truly matters in life.” — Robby Schropp

This is the core of everything Robby shares — not as a lesson, but as an invitation.

“I seek the real. And I believe that true quality always emerges where experience, respect and humanity meet.” — Robby Schropp

Common Questions.

What is WENDEPUNKT?

WENDEPUNKT is an exclusive experience in the Egyptian desert — for executives, entrepreneurs and high performers who, despite outward success, feel that something more must exist. 5 to 7 days without signal, without a clock, without coaching. Just real silence, real desert and honest conversation.

Who is this experience for?

For people between 35 and 60 — entrepreneurs, executives, high performers who have achieved a great deal and still feel that something is missing. People who function, but have long since lost themselves. People with depth and character who are ready to give themselves a week of real time.

What does a WENDEPUNKT experience cost?

The group experience (max. 6 people) costs €3,500 to €5,000 per person. An exclusive private experience starts at €12,000. Included: all on-site services — desert camp accommodation, meals, guiding. Not included: travel to and from Egypt.

How many people join a tour?

A maximum of 6 people per group. This limit is intentional — it creates intimacy, real connection and the necessary silence. A fully private tour is also available.

Do I need special physical fitness?

No extreme sports experience needed. The tours are designed for healthy adults who can walk, sit and sleep. The focus is not on physical performance, but on inner experience.

Is this coaching or therapy?

No. Explicitly not. No programme, no exercises, no guru. The desert itself is the experience. Robby Schropp is your host and desert guide — not a coach, not a therapist, not a speaker. Whatever happens, happens naturally.

When do the tours take place?

Several times a year, primarily in the cooler season from October to April. Dates are available via the contact form — there is no automatic booking system. Every journey begins with a personal conversation.
