Itinerary

  1. 1

    Wadi El-Rayan

    2 hours

    Your first major stop is Wadi El Rayan Protected Area, home to something most people don't expect to find in the middle of the Egyptian desert: waterfalls. These are the largest waterfalls in Egypt five cascades in close proximity, fed by agricultural drainage that has filled a series of interconnected desert lakes over the past century. The contrast of rushing water against the surrounding dunes is genuinely striking, and the photo opportunities here are unlike anything else in the country.

  2. 2

    Stop 2

    3 hours

    Your adventure begins at Lake Qaroun, a breathtaking viewpoint overlooking Egypt's largest and one of the world's oldest natural lakes, where your guide will share fascinating historical and geological insights. From there, brace yourself for a thrilling 4x4 Desert Safari & Dune Bashing session lasting 60 to 75 minutes. You'll navigate steep dunes and shifting valleys with an expert driver, taking in panoramic desert vistas along the way. Next up is Sandboarding for 30 to 45 minutes a fun, beginner-friendly ride down selected slopes while your guide snaps all the photos. Finally, you'll unwind for 30 minutes at The Magic Lake, a hidden, mineral-rich oasis nestled within the dunes, offering the perfect spot to cool down, relax, and capture beautiful desert memories.
