Itinerary
In the early morning, our guide will pick you up from your hotel by an air-conditioned vehicle towards Fayoum oasis, about 95km, which was considered a cult center for worshipping the Crocodile God “Sobek” during the ancient Egyptian era.
Then you will go to see the largest saltwater lake in Egypt, “Qaron’s Lake”, It is also considered the oldest natural lake in the world.
You will witness the magnificent scenery of winter-migrated birds around the lake, as well as the diverse array of fruits and vegetables. It’s the best place to relax after a hot day tour.
After that, going to “Wadi al-Rayan”, which was designated a Protected Area in 1989. It’s an amazing destination for a soft adventure day trip. You can swim in the lakes, jump off the water, or just enjoy the terrific natural scenery there
Then, ending this great trip and moving to visit Mudawara Mountain, which is located only a couple of hundred meters to the south of Wadi El Rayyan Road.it is more of a rock formation than a true mountain. Its layered appearance is beautiful, with a certain symmetry to the feature that draws your gaze to it.
