The most intriguing activities that may be enjoyed in Egypt are listed below in our post, and they are not the usual ones.

Camping in the Desert

Camping in the Desert is a great option for adventurous travelers - Egypt Fun Tours

One of the most incredible experiences you can have in Egypt is to go from Cairo to the Western Desert on a completely unique excursion. Spending an overnight camping trip in the Egyptian White Desert is without a doubt one of the most exciting outdoor activities available. You will be able to see the magnificent Bahariya Oasis while riding in a 4 X 4 vehicle, which will allow you to explore the beautiful sights all around you as well as the amazing rock formations in the region.

At night, you’ll get the rarest opportunity to set up a tent with the local Bedouins and experience camping with them beneath a dark, wonderful blanket of amazing stars. The next day, before returning to Cairo, you may enjoy an outstanding hot spring and take some beautiful shots at the location. It is a tour that we strongly suggest to any daring visitor.

A camping trip to the Whales’ Valley in the Western Egyptian desert is another fantastic way to learn about the evolution of various aquatic organisms while exploring 200-million-year-old petrified whales.

Trip to El-Alamein for History Lovers

A Fantastic Exploration Trip to El-Alamein for History Lovers

To have a better understanding of Egypt’s ancient history, you can visit some of the city’s oldest attractions and monuments. For example, when in Alexandria, you may take a journey to the mesmerizing El-Alamein, which had a crucial part during WWII. Many British and Commonwealth soldiers have died in the engagements that have taken place there.

You will be able to visit several cemeteries that remember the lives of British, New Zealand, and Australian troops who fought there while you are there. There is also a war museum with weapons, uniforms, records, models, and a variety of other fascinating objects on show.

Don’t miss a visit to Alexandria City

If you’re looking for a great cultural experience, don’t miss a visit to Alexandria City

The resort town of Alexandria is a clear illustration of an interconnected Egyptian metropolis with the most amazing coastal beaches, incredible hotels, and the greatest cultural attractions that may reveal the most spectacular secrets, facts, and information about Egypt’s rich past. Some tourist attractions, such as the spectacular Catacombs of Kom El-Shoqafa, date back to the Roman Empire.

You should also pay a visit to the magnificent Citadel of Qaitbay, which dates from the 15th century, Pompey’s Pillar, and the magnificent Alexandria Library, where you may learn everything there is to know about Egypt’s illustrious past.
