our White Desert tour from Cairo begins with an early morning pick-up. We drive towards the Bahariya Oasis, a journey of about four hours. Upon arrival, we switch to our 4×4 vehicle and head towards the Black Desert, known for its volcanic hills and dolerite deposits. After a rest and lunch, we continue to a natural sulfur spring for a therapeutic dip. Our next stop is the spectacular Crystal Mountain, a ridge made of sparkling quartz crystals. As sunset approaches, we arrive at the magnificent White Desert to set up our camp. Enjoy a delicious Bedouin dinner cooked over a fire and spend the night mesmerized by the starry sky.

Wake up to a stunning sunrise and enjoy a traditional Bedouin breakfast at the camp. Today is dedicated to exploring the desert’s wonders. You can enjoy optional activities like sandboarding down the beautiful dunes or simply soaking in the serene atmosphere. We will then have a unique barbecue lunch in the quiet desert.
