Visit the Desert Circuit, Egypt

A desert adventure provides a great contrast to the well trodden path of the Nile valley.

Now connected by asphalt roads, it is easier than ever to explore over 1,000 kilometers of desert through the main oases of Siwa, Bahariya, Farafra, Dakhla and Kharga.

Each oasis has its own unique flavor and landscape, including the salt lakes of Siwa, the hot springs and palm groves of Bahariya, and the traditional mud-brick village of Dakhla.
