About this trip
Seven days out into Egypt's western desert, away from the Nile and the crowds, through Siwa Oasis and the White Desert's chalk-white formations. Expect long drives, ancient ruins, hot springs, and a night camping under open sky.
This is a private, fully guided trip, so the pace and stops can flex around your group, though the route itself covers a lot of remote ground. It suits people who want the desert experience without organising the logistics themselves.
What you'll do
- Explore Siwa Oasis and the Temple of the Oracle of Amun
- Swim at Cleopatra's Spring and watch sunset from Fitnas Island
- 4x4 safari across the Great Sand Sea and fossil valleys
- Soak in hot and cold springs at Shiata Lake and Bir Wahid
- Visit the Roman-era tombs at Gabal El Mawta and climb Dakrour Mountain
- Camp overnight in the White Desert among the Crystal Mountain and Valley of Agabat
- Private trip, so it runs on your own schedule rather than joining a fixed group
- Involves a fair amount of 4x4 travel across remote desert terrain
- One night is spent camping in the White Desert, so pack for cold nights
