4 Days Egypt vacation to Cairo, White desert, and Alexandria

At 06:00 am Drive to the Bahariya Oasis, which is around 350 kilometres east of Cairo, at the scheduled time after picking you up from your accommodation in Giza or Cairo. The Bahariya oasis and White desert tour takes around four hours. Once you reach Baharyia Oasis, you'll meet your safari guide, get in your 4x4 Jeep, and begin your adventure.

Go by car to the black desert. Its mountains, hills, and dunes are all covered with a thin layer of black powder, hence the name. The lunch will be provided here at the El Haize oasis, which is situated 37 kilometres from Bawiti. This powder covers the peaks of various mountains.

You may relax before lunch by soaking in a hot spring, which will almost immediately lower your stress levels. Natural muscular relaxation brought on by the heat fosters a peaceful, contented, and quiet state of mind.

You will stop at Crystal Mountain, sometimes referred to as Gebel al-Izzaz locally, on the way back. The quartzite crystals that compose the hill, which can be seen on the right, are what give it the nickname "the Jewel of the Desert" and give it its stunning appearance when illuminated by the sun. That natural feature was discovered by chance a few decades ago.

Arrive in the Valley of Agabat, which is located deep within the white desert. To truly experience the place's otherworldly splendour, you must be there. The location was formerly submerged in water millions of years ago. Over the years, distinctive limestone rock formations have appeared. Next, you'll experience the desert by exploring Wadi el Agabat by Jeep 4x4 and enjoying sandboarding.

The most well-known desert site in Egypt is the White Desert National Park, which we will then tour.There are hundreds of pictures here, and each one looks like an animal: Camels, tents, a sphinx, and mushrooms

then make your way back to your Cairo hotel.

Start your private tour of Alexandria from Cairo at 7:00 am, when one of our Egyptologists picks you up from your hotel and drives you the 220 kilometers northwest to Alexandria. arrive at 10:00 in Alexandria

The Catacombs in Alexandria are a good place to start your day excursion. The catacomb of Kom el Shoqafa, which was used to house the deceased for the following 200 years, is thought to have been constructed in the second century A.D., according to archaeologists. During this time in Alexandria's history, there was a significant blending of many cultures. Of course, there was the 4,000-year-old ancient history of the great Egyptian kingdoms.

After there, we'll move on to Pompey Pillar. The legend surrounding the name alludes to the potential location of the Roman general's grave when he fled to Egypt and was killed there after losing a crucial conflict with Caesar in Greece. The red granite column was most likely constructed as a tribute to Emperor Diocletian. It is currently 25 metres high and Alexandria's highest ancient monument.

The Citadel of Sultan Qeitbay, which was built in the 15th century by Mamlouk Sultan Qeitbay to protect the city from the threat of Crusaders, will be our next stop. This magnificent Islamic monument was built using the remains of the old Lighthouse, which Ptolemy 11 had built in the third century a.c.

Lunch in an Egyptian restaurant in Alexandria

Then, we'll go on to the Library of Alexandria, which was revived in October 2002 in order to restore its illustrious past. It is a large complex that brings together the arts, history, philosophy, and science in addition to being an incredibly beautiful edifice. Additionally, the variety of activities it provides have transformed it into a venue for open discourse, communication, and comprehension.

drive back to your hotel in Cairo

On the final day of your Egypt travel packages, breakfast will be given at the hotel. We kindly ask that you check out of the hotel by 12:00 PM and, if you have time, do one of our optional Cairo day tours. After you've enjoyed your 4-day short stay in Cairo, your private Egyptologist guide will drive you to Cairo International Airport for your last departure.
