Trip Overview
Discover Egypt through a broader and more varied route that combines the country’s headline monuments with its Mediterranean shoreline, desert oases and camp landscapes. This 13-day journey is designed for travelers who want more than a classic city stay, linking Cairo and Giza with Alexandria, Siwa Oasis, Fayoum and the White Desert.
Begin in Cairo with the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, the Grand Egyptian Museum and the historic atmosphere of Old Cairo. The route then turns north-west toward Alexandria, with a stop at Wadi El Natrun before reaching Egypt’s Mediterranean coast for city sightseeing and time along the Corniche.
From Alexandria, continue west toward Siwa Oasis with a pause in Marsa Matrouh. In Siwa, enjoy oasis landscapes, local heritage and a sunset setting by Fitnas Lake before the journey swings back east to Fayoum for Wadi El Rayan, Magic Lake and Wadi El Hitan, the UNESCO-listed Valley of the Whales.
The final overland section reaches the White Desert for camp stays, sculpted chalk formations and classic Western Desert scenery before returning to Cairo through Crystal Mountain, the Black Desert and Bahariya Oasis. Travelers can choose between Comfort 4 Stars and Premium 5 Stars accommodation while keeping the same complete touring route.
