📍 White and Black Desert Tour • 3 Days / 2 Nights
A 3-day adventure from Cairo to Bahariya Oasis, the Black Desert, Crystal Mountain, the Great Sand Dunes, and the magical White Desert Reserve — with two unforgettable nights camping under the stars.
🚗 Transfer starts at 7:00 AM from Cairo, followed by around a 4-hour drive to Bahariya Oasis.
🍲 Upon arrival, lunch will be ready. We enjoy lunch and then begin our desert adventure.
🏔️ First, we visit the Black Desert, famous for its dozens of small hills covered with black volcanic peaks.
♨️ Then we visit a small Bedouin village, where you will have the opportunity to relax in the hot and cold springs of Bahariya Oasis.
💎 After that, we head to Crystal Mountain, one of the most beautiful natural landmarks in the Western Desert.
🏜️ We continue deeper into the Western Desert, reaching the sand dunes of Al-Gharabi, an extension of the Abu Muharraq dune chain.
🌄 Then we move on to reach the Airport area, a wide sandy landscape surrounded by high white mountains.
⛺ We set up camp, photograph the sunset, and prepare dinner under the desert sky.
🌞 After breakfast, we visit the peaceful Wadi Aghab, where you can enjoy a short walk under the desert sun.
🌴 Then we have lunch at Ain Al-Sarw, a water spring shaded by palm trees with three small pools in the middle of the desert.
🏞️ After lunch, we visit the Grand Canyon, a large valley in the middle of the desert filled with palm trees and desert plants.
👑 Next, we head to the Crown of the Earth area and enjoy sandboarding on the desert dunes.
🌳 After that, we visit the Valley of Mangroves, also known as the Petrified Forest, where ancient trees have been fossilized for millions of years.
🪨 Then we continue to the Valley of Rocks, another unique desert landscape shaped by time and wind.
🌅 Shortly before sunset, we reach the final and most magical scene of the day: the White Desert Reserve 🏜️.
🤍 Here, the white chalk rocks are naturally shaped like birds, animals, and surreal sculptures.
⛺ We camp inside the White Desert and prepare dinner for another unforgettable night under the stars.
🌞 Breakfast is served around 7:30 AM, but you may want to wake up a little earlier to enjoy the amazing sunrise over the White Desert.
🧭 After breakfast, we take time to explore the surreal shapes of the wind-eroded chalk rocks.
🏜️ You will have the chance to walk around, take photos, and enjoy the unique silence and beauty of the White Desert.
🚙 Around 11:00 AM, we return to Bahariya Oasis.
🚗 At 12:00 PM, we start the drive back to Cairo.

Des paysages très variés et surprenants. Nos guides Mohamed et Ahmed forment une bonne équipe. Ils se sont occupés de nous, on a bien mangé et ils nous ont toujours laissé le temps de profiter de ces magnifiques paysages. On a réservé par e-mail puis WhatsApp, on leur a fait confiance et on a jamais été déçu. Ils sont top👍🏼 En juillet il fait quand même chaud (ce n’est pas une surprise😉) mais on était seul au monde.
