Spend two days out in Egypt’s Western Desert on the White Desert and Bahariya Oasis Overnight Tour with Aten Tours. The trip takes you away from Cairo to see the unusual rock formations, open desert landscapes and the natural side of Bahariya Oasis, with a night camping under the stars.
Among our Cairo overnight tours, this desert adventure takes you to the Golden Mummies Museum, some of the ancient temples and tombs in Bahariya Oasis, then climb into a 4x4 for the drive through the Black Desert. Along the way you stop at Crystal Mountain and the striking limestone shapes in the Valley of Agabat before arriving in the White Desert, where you can watch the sunset and have dinner at the camp.
This overnight White Desert safari from Cairo covers private transport from Cairo, the 4x4 transfers in the desert, a licensed Egyptologist guide, entrance fees to the listed sites, camping equipment and the meals set out in the itinerary. It’s a solid option if you’re looking for a Bahariya Oasis tour with desert camping and a chance to experience Egypt’s desert scenery away from the big ancient monuments.
Your day starts around 7:00 AM when the driver picks you up from your Cairo hotel for the drive out to Bahariya Oasis. Once you arrive you have lunch at a local restaurant, then set out to see the oasis and its historical sites. First is the Golden Mummies Museum, where you hear about the finds that were made in the area.
From there you continue to the ruins of the Temple of Alexander the Great, the Tombs of the Nobles and the Temple of Ain El Muftella. These stops give a sense of Bahariya’s past and the role it played in ancient Egypt. Later you switch to a 4x4 and head into the desert. The route takes you through the Black Desert with its dark volcanic rocks, then on to Crystal Mountain, where the mineral formations catch the light. You also pass through the Valley of Agabat, known for its dramatic rock shapes and open desert views.
As the light softens, arrive in the White Desert and watch the sunset over its unusual white limestone formations. Your local team prepares dinner at the campsite, where you can relax beneath the stars during this Black Desert and Crystal Mountain overnight trip.
Meals: Lunch and dinner
Overnight: White Desert camp
You wake up to the stillness of the desert and have breakfast at the camp. After that you spend a little more time in the White Desert, walking among the chalk formations that the wind has shaped into all kinds of unusual forms. This is a great opportunity to take photographs and appreciate the landscape before leaving the camping area.
After the desert visit, travel back toward Bahariya Oasis through the Black Desert. Stop along the way to see the salt lake, fruit fields and sand dunes around the oasis, depending on the route and local conditions.
Then begin the drive back to Cairo in an air-conditioned vehicle. You’ll arrive at your hotel after completing your overnight White Desert safari from Cairo, bringing your two-day desert experience to an end.
