Western Oases Tour
The landscape of the Western desert
of Egypt is amazing: seas of sand, migration dunes,
rocky mountains and the oases with their palm tree
alleys. Here, the histories of the lost treasures
resound still probable. The enormous expansion of the
desert and its secrets are fascinating. The one who did
not visit these oases, did not really learned about them
