Our driver will meet you in your Cairo hotel and take by a comfortable a/c vehicle to Bahariya oasis. The distance from Cairo to the oasis is 370-km, so we will leave Cairo between 07:30 and 08:00 am. Upon arrival to Bahariya, we check in at our cozy 3* hotel on HB basis, have a city tour and a lunch in a local restaurant. In the afternoon, we visit the temple of Alexander the Great, tombs of the Nobles and the English mountain. Dinner and overnight at a hotel.
This morning we start with an early departure by 4X4 Land Cruiser to the Western desert. Our tour includes visit to the White Desert, the Black Desert and the sand dune area, here we can even climb a 50 meter dune. Lunch will be served in El Heiz Oasis. After lunch we continue our journey and on the way to Farafra oasis we stop at the Crystal Mountain for some amazing pictures, next visit El Agabat and continue to the White Desert. Here we get a great chance to explore surrealistic and most bizarre rock formations. In the evening we will get our dinner and sleep in tents under the stars right in the desert.

We visit the city, bath in the hot spring, explore the museum of Badr - a local artist - then move on to Dakhla oasis, which lies 280-km far from Farafra. In Dakhla the Old Covered City with its oil press, school, courthouse and dwelling chambers are waiting to be discovered. Before lunch we visit Muzzawaka and Deir El Hagar.
