Wake up early and be transported from your Cairo hotel to our stunning Egypt Desert Safari tours. Your tour guide and personal driver will transport you to the Bus Station, where you will board an air-conditioned bus to the Bahariya Oasis, which is roughly four hours away from Cairo.
Upon arrival, our native Bedouin driver-guide will welcome you and take you to the Valley of Golden Mummies, which has just 10 well-preserved royal golden mummies, and the Tombs of the Nobles, which reveal numerous puzzles concerning the oasis's past rulers. (Tomb of Zed-Amun-Ef-Ankh and Tomb of Bannentiu, which have been repurposed for group burials), the Temple of Alexander the Great in Bahariya Oasis, which was built to honor his journey to Siwa Oasis, and the Temple of Ain El-Meffetla or Ein Muftella northwest of Bawiti. The temple houses four chapels from ancient Egypt's 26th dynasty, which were unearthed by Egyptian scholars in 1939.
Lunch will be served in one of the oasis's Bedouin huts, after which we will proceed to the White Desert, stopping along the way to view the Valley of El Haize, which was discovered on the remnants of the Roman fortress as one of the most northern garrisons in the western desert. Stop at Crystal Mountain to see the quartz crystal and the gorgeous Valley of Agabat, then camp in the White Desert to take in the spectacular sunset and cream-colored sand as your local guides cook your dinner.
