Cairo to Fayoum Desert Safari with Sandboarding and Lake Swim
A trusted partner experience, hand-picked and featured on This is Egypt.

Overview
A day trip to the Fayoum Oasis takes you into a quieter desert landscape just outside Cairo. You’ll begin at a peaceful desert camp with traditional Bedouin tea, then set off in powerful 4x4 vehicles to explore the area's hidden beauty. Along the way you will stop for photographs among golden dunes and rugged terrain, and visit the desert waterfalls for a calm, scenic walk. As you move through the oasis, you will spend time at the Magic Lake where you may swim, relax and capture striking photos. You’ll also have the chance to sandboard down smooth, untouched dunes and enjoy energetic off‑road dune driving. The experience concludes with a traditional Bedouin lunch, giving you a final taste of local hospitality before you return from the desert. This trip suits travellers who want to connect with nature, explore varied desert landscapes and leave with memorable scenes and experiences.
