Overview

Even if you have only limited time in Egypt, you can still get out of the city and into the desert by booking this private tour to El Fayoum from Cairo. You'll explore the protected nature reserve of Wadi El Ryan including its UNESCO-listed Valley of the Whales, which is filled with the fossils of ancient, now-extinct, land-based whales, as well as Egypt’s only waterfalls.
