A little more about your day

We pick you up from your location in Cairo or Giza in a private air-conditioned car for two days in Siwa: the salt lakes, hot springs, Fatnas Island, Cleopatra's Spring, the Oracle Temple, the Mountain of the Dead, a desert safari and more.

You learn about the traditions and customs of the Siwan people and taste authentic local food. Our guides are from Siwa, so they can show you hidden places most visitors never see.
