Day 1- Cairo - Bahariya - white desert
·Pick up from you location in Cairo
(airport/ station / hotel).
·Driver to Bahariya Oasis 350
kilometers (219 miles) ahead. Midway in the journey at 155
kilometers (97 miles) is a rest stop with a gas station and a
cafeteria Twenty-two kilometers (14 miles) from the beginning of the
road, the railway from Helwan joins the road and follows it all the
way to reach Managim.(First Village of Bahariya oasis).Beyond
Managim, the main road continues to Bawiti. At 316 kilometers (197
miles) the terrain changes once again as small conical hills begin
to emerge
·Arrival in Bawiti, switch to 4WD.
·We
leave Bahariya behind in our way to a different world of Black and
White. We approach Sahara Suda, the Black Desert, a favorite
safari destination. The ground to the right and left of the road is
covered with black stones. We climb a 15 meter Sand Dune by
4WD and stop to take pictures of these mixtures of colors. Then we
see Al Marsous volcanic Hill.
·37 km we reach Al Hyaz small village
that during the Roman era this area was very prosperous. Many of the
current families were originally from Libya. We take our picnic
lunch in a shaded place; also we will have the chance to get
refreshment by swimming in one of the cold springs nearby.
·We drive to the most famous of the
formations is the Crystal Mountain, actually a large rock
made entirely of quartz. It sits right beside the main road.
·Meet
the camels near Bir Rigwa, and start our tour on back
of camels towards the Mushrooms formations.Bit by bit the yellow desert sands east of the road start to
become pierced by chalky rock formations.s you get further into the 300-sq-km White Desert
Protectorate, you’ll notice that the surreal shapes start to take on
familiar forms: chickens, ostriches, camels, hawks and other uncanny
shapes abound.

desert to prepare the camping place, mounting tents, cooking food.
