Full Description

During our 2-day White desert Baharya oasis sightseeing tour you will enjoy the most striking sights of the desert and the historical sites of Bahariya Oasis.

Transfer from Cairo to the desert

Our adventure will begin early in the morning when the driver will meet you at your hotel in Cairo at 7 am. From here you will embark on a unique desert journey in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle.

Our journey will take more than 6 hours. Estimated time of arrival at the car change point is 11-12 noon. Here we will have lunch and transfer to comfortable Landcruser 4x4 jeeps. After lunch, we will have an unforgettable adventure in the desert.

With your experienced local Bedouin guide (speaks some English), you will travel through the sand dunes of the White and Black Deserts. Here you can experience the grandeur and beauty of this unique landscape, photograph stunning views and learn a lot of interesting things about the local flora and fauna.

White and Black Desert sightseeing tour

The Black and White Deserts are two unique natural phenomena located in the western part of Egypt. The Black Desert, also known as Sahra Al-Qara, is an amazing landscape that amazes with its exoticism and beauty. Its name comes from the black color of the sand dunes, which are composed of basalt lava that was deposited here thousands of years ago by volcanic activity. This partially exposed lava landscape makes it feel like you're on another planet. The Black Desert is famous for its incredible dune shapes, with each ridge and ledge reflecting different shades of black. A visit to the Black Desert is a unique experience that makes you feel the grandeur of nature.

The White Desert, also known as Sahra Al Bayda, is a landscape made up of giant limestones and cruciform formations created by natural action and erosion over many millennia. This unique landscape includes white, soft dune ridges that look like clouds lying on the ground. In the White Desert you will also see incredible rock formations that are formed by wind and sand erosion. This landscape creates a sense of unreality and magic, and many tourists come here to enjoy its unique beauty and mysticism.

A visit to the Black and White Deserts will allow you to immerse yourself in the amazing natural world, enjoy stunning views and create unforgettable memories of your trip to Egypt.

Baharya oasis day of leisure

After a busy day in the desert, we will head to the Bahariya oasis, where you will spend the night in a cozy guest house. Here you can relax after a busy day, enjoy the peace and quiet of the oasis.

Visit to the Golden Mummies Museum

After breakfast, let's head to the local Golden Mummies Museum, where incredible artifacts found during excavations in the Valley of the Golden Mummies await us. It was here that researchers discovered many mummies with well-preserved bodies and items accompanying them in the afterlife, such as vessels, jewelry, amulets and other artifacts.

Temple of Alexander the Great

This historical monument is one of the key attractions of the oasis. The temple was built in honor of the conqueror Alexander the Great and is an important historical artifact that inspires respect and admiration for its architecture and significance.

Return to Cairo

At the end of the excursion, return to Cairo. The driver will take you to your hotel or other designated location in the city where you will end your journey.
