4-Day White Desert Tour from Cairo – Camp Under the Stars in Egypt’s Natural
Bahariya Oasis
Short Description
Escape the bustle of Cairo and embark on a 4-day adventure through Egypt’s breathtaking White Desert. Experience otherworldly landscapes, explore unique rock formations, and camp under a star-lit sky for an unforgettable journey.
Leave Cairo early on a briefing tour. Upon arrival, travel by private 4x4 vehicle to the Bahariya Oasis; it will take approximately 4 to 5 hours to get to the Bahariya Oasis, which is the entrance of the white desert. After reaching Bahariya Oasis, either check into one of the hotels offered there or pitch a tent in case you want a more local touch. You will explore the wonders of the Bahariya Oasis, visit the local museum, and have lunch in Egyptian style. This is followed by a 4x4 desert safari in the mid-afternoon to visit other places of interest, including the Black Desert, Crystal Mountain, and the Valley of the Golden Mummies. Return to your accommodation/camp in Bahariya Oasis for supper and rest.
After breakfast, depart from Bahariya Oasis and head towards the White Desert. Along the way, stop at the Valley of Agabat to admire its stunning rock formations and unique geological features. Arrive at the White Desert in the afternoon and set up camp amidst the surreal white limestone formations. Spend the rest of the day exploring the White Desert, marveling at the otherworldly landscapes, and taking plenty of photographs. Enjoy a delicious dinner prepared by your guides under the starry desert sky before retiring to your tent for the night.
You should set your alarm earlier than normal today, as you will want to see the Golden Age of the sun out of the White Desert—it is simply enchanting. Later on, after breakfast, go for a walk to explore the White Desert further, admiring its extraordinary carved rocks, dry havens, and calcareous terrain. See fantastic rock formations, for example, mushroom rock structures and chicken and tree rocks. Take in the lovely view of the desert around you as you indulge in a packed lunch. In the later part of the afternoon, you may take part in other activities like sandboarding or just sit back and enjoy the peace. Dinner is served later in the evening and a night spent in the white desert is filled with joy.
After breakfast, dismantle the tents and leave the White Desert behind. Next, return to Cairo with a stop for lunch and a walk in the Bahariya Oasis.
Back in Cairo towards the evening or afternoon since this marks the end of your amazing camping trip to the White Desert.
