It was a long day, but it worth to see the beautiful nature near the Bahariya Oasis and to experience the piece in the desert. A professional guide is very useful on this trip to find the best places in the Black and White Deserts.

It was a really fun tour, but you should be aware that you spend a lot of time on the road and only a little time on the desert.

Fantastic trip, would give 6 out of 5 stars if I could, the White desert itself is an amazing site, was like being on an alien world, yet is actually the sea bed 5 million years ago! The view at Wahat Osis is stunning and we also went to the black desert and crystal mountain. The tour around all of these places was in a 4x4 with another local guide which was good fun - up and round the dunes. We also had a delicious lunch afterwards. Our guide from Emo tours (Hamada) and our driver (Abo) were really nice and helped make the day so thanks to them 😊. Also having visited Egypt a couple of times p
