Overview
A three-night journey for travellers who prefer more time in the desert, combining nights in remote camping areas with one night at an oasis hotel.
Spend longer among the changes of the Western Desert: the rocky slopes around Bahariya, sandy reaches of Akabat, open trails near Ain El Serw and the sculpted formations of the White Desert. The additional days allow a more relaxed pace than a one-night safari, while still returning to Cairo on day four.
This four-day programme plans two desert nights and a final stay in a Bahariya hotel. Remote route permissions and overnight locations must be reconfirmed before sale; some named stops are subject to local access and conditions.
Highlights
- Travel through El Heiz and the desert approach to Akabat.
- Possible sandboarding around suitable dunes.
- Ain El Serw and the Karawin dune area on an extended route.
- White Desert camp, open-air scenery and photography.
- Crystal Mountain, Black Desert, Salt Lake and English Mountain on the return.
- Final night in a Bahariya hotel with local evening activity if arranged.
