Itinerary
-
Day in Cairo and Giza
- Meet your representative and get picked up from your hotel in Cairo to enjoy the famous sites of El Fayoum; Cairo to Fayoum is about 95 km.
- Today all our visits are in Wadi El Ryan, designated as Protected Area in 1989. We will start our tour to Wadi Hitan Protected Area (Valley of the Whales), about 90 km far from Fayoum. Wadi Hitan, or Valley of the Whales, is located in the Protected Area of Wadi El Rayan. It was designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site to recognise the 40 million–year–old whale skeletons found there.
- On the way to Wadi El Rayan Waterfalls, visit Mudawara Mountain, then onto Wadi Al Ryan Water Falls. Wadi El Rayan is a natural depression located in the western desert, 42m below sea level; it consists of two lakes connected by Egypt’s only waterfalls, formed in 1970 by an overflow of drainage water from the farmlands in Fayoum.
- Enjoy sandboarding in Fayoum. Late Lunch will be served at a good quality restaurant.
