Overview

This private day tour of El Fayoum starts with hotel pickup and takes you around the oasis and its natural attractions without the stress of self-driving. Along the way you will visit the pottery-making Tunis Village, where you’ll have lunch and taste traditional Egyptian dishes in a local setting. You’ll also see the Mudawara Mountain rock formation and the ancient settlement of Medinet Madi. You will explore Qarun Lake, one of the world’s oldest natural lakes, and may sail a felucca on its waters. Wadi El Rayan’s dramatic waterfalls offer striking desert scenery, and nearby sand dunes provide the chance to try sandboarding. The trip also includes a visit to Whale Valley (Whales Valley), where you’ll learn about the fossil remains of Archaeoceti. The tour is guided and door-to-door, so you can focus on the landscape and history as you move through El Fayoum’s varied sites.
