4 Days Trip To Siwa Oasis Desert From USA

After breakfast and check-out, you will begin your Siwa Oasis trip from Cairo and be followed by your tour guide to the Mountain of the Dead "Gabal al Maouta," which is located 1 km outside Siwa and is filled with ancient tombs of Siwa Oasis monarchs from the 26th dynasty. The mountain has a limestone floor, and the graves are shaped like a beehive. Among the prominent tombs worth visiting are Niperpathot, Si-Amon, Mesu Isis, and the Crocodile Tomb.

You will next be taken on a tour of the amazing sites in and around Siwa, beginning with the Oracle Temple or the Temple of Alexander the Great . It was constructed on the Aghurmi plateau. 

Its remains currently house magnificent drawings and carvings that trace the temple's history, as well as a portrayal of the divinity Amun Ra. The temple is notable because it is supposed that Alexander the Great resided there. Then, learn about Siwan's particular culture at the Siwa House Museum before lunch at Abdo restaurant on the Oasis' famed square overlooking Shali.

Following that, we'll travel to Cleopatra Spring, also known as "Ein Guba," a natural stone pool fed by a hot spring where the Queen of Egypt is supposed to have swum during her visit to Siwa. After a hot day of sightseeing, you may now take a refreshing plunge while simultaneously enjoying a cup of coffee or tea.

Then you'll embark on your Egypt Desert Safari journey, discovering the Great Sand Sea. Jeep 4 4 (Jeep Land Cruiser safari) to Bir Wahid's hot and cold springs. While enjoying Bedouin tea, take in the stunning desert sunset. Siwa's vast sand sea provides the best dune surfing in the world. After that, you'll be driven to your accommodation for the night.

Overnight in Siwa.

This will be your final stop in Siwa after breakfast. You will be taken by our guide to Shali, Siwa's "ancient city" founded in the 13th century. It was constructed on a hill behind a protective wall that was originally breached by a single gate to serve as a stronghold in the heart of Siwa, guarding the city against tribe raids. 

Then you'll arrive at the Siwa Salt Lakes, which are a hidden gem. You float because the saltwater lifts you above the surface. You don't have to be a great swimmer to take part. Lakes provide their own set of health benefits and recreational opportunities. Salt pools can help with sinus, skin, and eye problems.

Then our Cairo Top Tours guide will drive you back to your Cairo hotel, which will take approximately 8-9 hours including a break. We hope you enjoyed your Cairo Siwa Oasis trip.
