||||||||||||||||||||
| From Cairo we drive by jeep south towards Fayoum, the largest oasis in the Western Desert. We stop at Lake Qaroun for a tour by felucca (half an hour) and then head to Wadi Rayan where we visit the spring and waterfall. After having lunch, we continue into the desert. We reach Wadi Al Hitan (otherwise known as the Valley of Whales), a surreal region where huge boulders seem to be capped with an imaginary icing of thick caramelized syrup, which appears to ooze down their sides. Within this extraordinary landscape the fossil remains of Zeuglodon have been found – whales that existed in the Fayoum over 40 million years ago. We spend the night camping out under a canopy of stars. Overnight Camping. |
