White Desert and Bahariya Oasis overnight
Experience Egypt’s White Desert and Bahariya Oasis on sharing 2-day trip from Cairo. Absorb the white, wind-eroded rocks of the White Desert, see Bahariya’s palm groves and dunes, and view the Crystal Mountain, ash-topped hills of the Black Desert. Your trip is including a barbecue dinner and night under the stars at a desert camp.
Itinerary
Day 1: Cairo - Bahariya - White Desert - El Haize (L, D)
Stop At: Bahariya (Bahereya) Oasis, Western Desert, Bawiti Egypt
Begin with pickup from your hotel in Cairo Or Giza to transfer you to the Bus station to board the sharing public mini van to Bahariya Oasis.
After a roughly 4-hour journey, arrive and enjoy lunch at a local Bahariya restaurant. Then, transfer to a 4x4 sharing other tourists with a local Bedouin driver at the wheel, and explore the village of Bawiti, Bahriya’s capital, taking in the lush palm groves set against the immense dunes.
See the hot springs at Bir Al Matar and Bir El Ghaba, and climb ‘English Mountain’ to view the hilltop remains of a British World War I outpost. Then, pass the Salt Lake on route into the Black Desert, with its black-topped volcanic hills. View the hot spring in the Valley of El Haize, and check out Crystal Mountain, a chunk of glittering crystal rising from the sands.
Drive through the huge, rounded rocks of the Agabat Valley, and head into the White Desert National Park, a region of spectacular, brilliant-white rock formations eroded by wind into spires, mushrooms, animals, and other bizarre shapes.
Admire the ghostly shapes, and then return to El Haize to your overnight camp. Enjoy a desert sunset and barbecue dinner under the stars before snuggling into your sleeping bag on mattresses in your tent.

Publicado el Lunes, 21 de octubre del 2019My title best describes this adventure. Climbing black desert mountains, skiing down mountains of sand, trekking thru the white desert is like walking on another planet. So remote, so quiet, so desolate. We were fortunate enough to be there for a full moon. The night walk was as close to walking on another planet as anything I could ever imagine. The outpost station was great, the food was outstanding. If you take this trip you'll truly will never regret or forget it, if you dont, you just might regret it. Badar our guide made this adventure that much better. Be sure to ask for Badar

Excellent, your choice of sleeping under the stars or in a tent, I choose under the star and seen also a spectacular sunrise. Food was delicious and the rock formations amazing.
