Your Epic Desert Adventure Itinerary:

• 06:00 AM: Rise and shine! Your expert, majestic guide (who knows the desert like the back of their hand) and friendly driver will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo. You’ll cruise in style in a modern, air-conditioned vehicle for a scenic 4-hour drive across the Egyptian countryside, heading towards the magical Bahariya Oasis—about 350 km west of Cairo.

• Arrival at Bahariya Oasis: Once you reach the oasis, the real adventure begins. Say goodbye to your comfy car and hop into a 4×4, built to tackle the desert like a boss. First stop? The Black Desert! Get ready to have your mind blown by dark volcanic rocks that make the desert look like it’s got a bit of an edge. Trust your expert guide to fill you in on the fascinating geology of this unique place as you snap some epic photos.

• The White Desert – aka the Land of Imagination: Now, get ready for the grand finale! Head to the White Desert, one of the most magical places on Earth. The white chalky rocks here have formed into shapes that’ll make you wonder if Mother Nature has a wild sense of humor. Mushrooms, rabbits, chickens… and who knows, maybe even a giant camel? Your guide will help you see all the quirky formations and share the history behind this mystical land.

• A Delicious Oasis Lunch: After exploring the otherworldly wonders of the White Desert, it’s time to refuel with a traditional oasis lunch. Relax in a local oasis, where you’ll feast on authentic, home-cooked dishes made with fresh local ingredients.
