Overview

This tour from Cairo takes you into the Egyptian Desert to experience a variety of desert landscapes. You will visit the alluring Wadi El Rayan waterfalls and marvel at the majestic Mudawara Mountains. Along the way you’ll see sweeping dunes and rocky mountain scenery that show a different side of Egypt beyond the cities. You’ll enjoy action-packed dune bashing across sandy slopes, try sandboarding, and take a delightful camel ride. The combination of cascading water at Wadi El Rayan, the rugged contours of the Mudawara Mountains and open desert dunes offers striking contrasts to explore and appreciate. Throughout the trip you’ll move between these distinct landscapes and have time to soak up their scale and atmosphere.
