    Un viaggio magnifico al deserto bianco e all'oasi di Bahariya da Alessandria! Passare una notte accampato sotto le stelle è stato incredibile. Assolutamente da fare se visiti l'Egitto!

    Eine wundervolle Tour zur Weißen Wüste und Bahariya-Oase! Der Aufenthalt über Nacht in der Wüste ist etwas, das man mindestens einmal im Leben erlebt haben muss. Ich bin begeistert!
