Your days

Each day shows our suggestion. Keep it, change it, or leave the day to us.

Fayoum

Days 1–2 · 2 nights
What to know about Fayoum
How long
A day from Cairo, or a night. About two hours from Cairo each way. A day covers Wadi El Rayan or the Valley of the Whales; a night by Lake Qarun lets you see both without rushing.
What deserves priority
Wadi El Rayan's lakes and waterfalls, and the whale fossils of Wadi El Hitan.
  • Wadi el-Hitan

    A desert valley of fossil whales with legs, from a sea that covered Egypt forty million years ago.

What deserves priority
White Desert landscapes and a night under the stars.

    More about this tour
    In a vehicle
    Two long road days, Alexandria to Siwa and Siwa back to Cairo
    At the sites
    A full day in Alexandria and two full days in Siwa
    Format
    Private
    Best time
    October to April, when the desert days are warm rather than hot

    Our tip: Two unhurried days in Siwa, at the end of the coast road. The UK government's travel advice names Siwa and the Marsa Matruh road as exceptions to its Western Desert warning, and this route uses that road.
