Over day from Cairo to Fayoum
Itinerary
- Begin your adventure with a morning transfer from your Cairo hotel. A representative will accompany you on the scenic drive to Fayoum, located approximately 95 km southwest of Cairo, known for its natural beauty and ancient heritage.
- Start your tour with a visit to Lake Qarun, one of the oldest natural lakes in the world and the third largest in Egypt. This ancient lake, a remnant of the prehistoric Lake Moeris, has been a vital part of the region’s ecosystem since the Pharaonic era and remains an important site for birdwatching and local fishing communities.
- Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, offering a taste of Fayoum’s rustic charm and traditional cuisine.
- After lunch, continue to Wadi El Rayan, a stunning natural reserve in the Western Desert. Here, you’ll witness two tranquil lakes connected by Egypt’s only waterfalls, set against rolling sand dunes, an ideal spot for photography and relaxation.
- The journey concludes with a visit to Wadi El Hitan (Valley of the Whales), a UNESCO World Heritage Site located within Wadi El Rayan National Park. This remarkable site is home to some of the world’s oldest whale fossils, dating back over 40 million years, offering a rare glimpse into the evolution of life on Earth.
After a day filled with natural wonders and ancient history, return to Cairo in the evening for an overnight stay at your hotel.
