The day trip includes private transport from your Fayoum accommodation, a stop at the Valley of the Golden Mummies museum in Bahariya, the Black Desert, Crystal Mountain, and the White Desert. Lunch in Bahariya and sunset in the White Desert are included before the return drive to Fayoum.
Absolutely. Many travellers combine Fayoum (2 nights with Wadi El Hitan and the waterfall) with a White Desert camping night and Bahariya Oasis into a seamless 4–5 day Western Desert adventure. We can design a custom itinerary linking all these destinations at competitive prices.
