Description
Day 1
4:00 am Departure from the hotel to Cairo. One way trip will take about 5 hours. On the way you will see the coast of the Red Sea. 09:00 Arrival in Cairo and view from the car of part of one of the largest densely populated cities in Africa. Transfer from Cairo to Baharia oasis (4 hours). Yes, a real oasis in the desert! Once in Bahariya, we will have a short lunch before setting off on a jeep trip to the White Desert. In this incredible place, chalk deposits protrude from the ground, making it look like snow has fallen in the desert. And the limestone rocks, hewn by the natural elements, have bizarre shapes and resemble mushrooms or animals. Let's examine all the most beautiful places of the White Desert and see the unofficial symbols of the White Desert - 'Mushroom' and 'Chicken'. Later, you will camp in the White Desert and our Bedouin friends will cook for you a traditional Bedouin dinner by the fire and tell you stories from their lives. Enjoy the most magical sunset and discover the secrets of the desert at night under the stars.
Day 2
Dawn in the desert. After you enjoy the breakfast prepared for you, we will drive to the Black Desert. This is an area southwest of Cairo, strewn with black hills. They have a different shape and can reach a height of hundreds of meters. These hills are covered with a layer of black basalt - hence the name of this area.
