6 Nights
Cairo - Siwa - Bahariya - White Desert
Who
doesn't know about the Nile Valley with the Pyramids
and Valley of the Kings, or the Eastern Egypt with
Sinai and the Red Sea? Less know about the New
destination in Egypt, which is: the Western Desert
and it's Oases.
This desert was previously called the "Libyan
Desert" and covers an area of 680'000 square kilometers - or two third of Egypt. As it's hard to
understand this size by numbers alone, let us
mention that this area is equal to a combined size
of these seven countries; Austria, Belgium, Denmark,
Greece, the Netherlands, Norway and Switzerland!
Our original offer consists in taking a different
itinerary than the straight highway road. We pursue
our journey by taking the exciting circuit that
leads through all oases ! From
Cairo - Siwa - Bahariya - White Desert
