Bahariya Oasis and White Desert Budget Tour

Waking up early in the morning and be taken from your Cairo hotel to our spectacular Egypt Desert Safari tours and the Bahariya Oasis tour. Your tour guide and personal driver will bring you to the Bus Station, where you will board an air-conditioned bus to the Bahariya Oasis, which is approximately a four-hour trip from Cairo.

Following arrival, you will be greeted by our local Bedouin driver-guide who will take you to the Valley of Golden Mummies, which has just ten well-preserved royal golden mummies, and the Tombs of the Nobles, which contain many riddles about the oasis's ancient rulers. (Tomb of Zed-Amun-Ef-Ankh and Tomb of Bannentiu, which have been repurposed for group burials), the Temple of Alexander the Great at Bahariya Oasis, which was erected to commemorate his transit on his route to Siwa Oasis, and the Temple of Ain El-Meffetla or Ein Muftella to the northwest of Bawiti. The temple houses four chapels from the 26th dynasty of ancient Egypt, which Egyptian experts discovered in 1939.

Lunch will be given in one of the oasis's Bedouin huts, and then we will travel to the White Desert, stopping along the way to explore the Valley of El Haize, which was discovered on the remains of the Roman citadel as one of the most northern garrisons in the western desert. Stop at Crystal Mountain to admire the quartz crystal and the picturesque Valley of Agabat, then camp in the White Desert to enjoy the breathtaking sunset and the cream-colored sand as your local guides prepare your dinner.
