White Desert Egypt
Nothing beats the experience of White Desert Egypt Camping & sleeping in the open air especially when it is in the colored desert, the so-called white desert, means stone formation colored in white, camping is a great adventure that you can enjoy ever, having your lungs cleaned up from the polluted air, eating barbecued beef and chicken while looking at the stars and listening to folkloric music, and if lucky watching some traditional dances.
White desert Egypt
Starts all the way from Cairo or Giza where you will be Picked , drive towards Baharia oasis in the Western Desert (which takes you almost 4 hours), take some rest and enjoy your breakfast in the desert, visit the Black Desert formed by ancient volcanic movement that cause a scattered rocks even around those mountains of black volcanic stones, which you can enjoying more by hiking a little bit of them for some panoramic shots, then head to the neighboring White Desert formed long time ago by the ancient oceans and sea that were around the Western desert of Egypt. We have now two different white desert locations; the old white desert and the new white desert too, the only difference between them is the color, the older one looks more beige than white, the other one looks whiter and newer. You will then camp for an overnight, enjoy the landscape, food and the beauty of the atmosphere too.
Next morning drive back to Cairo after having your breakfast in the open air.
Do not forget to take your googles, camera and comfortable shoes along.
