Luxury One Day Siwa Oasis Safari from Marsa Matrouh

Morning: Mud Brick Mysteries & Ancient Oracles

• Early Departure: We’ll pick you up right in front of your hotel to begin our desert adventure.

• The Ancient City of Shali: Our first stop is this surreal, dilapidated city. Built from a unique mixture of salt and mud, it looks like something out of a fairy tale! You'll see buildings that are centuries old—some of which are still used for accommodation today.

• Temple of Amun: Walk in the footsteps of Alexander the Great. This 30th-dynasty temple is where the legendary conqueror famously sought the advice of the Oracle.

💦 Midday: Floating & Sacred Mountains

• The Salt Lakes: Grab your swimsuit! You’ll have the chance to swim (or rather, float effortlessly) in the crystal-clear, hyper-salty waters.

• Mount Dakrur: Next, we visit the "Mountain of Atonement," a site famous for its panoramic views and local healing traditions.

• Traditional Lunch: We’ll refuel with an authentic meal at a local restaurant, featuring the unique flavors of the oasis.

🏺 Afternoon: Springs & Ancient Secrets

• Cleopatra’s Spring: Relax where royalty once bathed! Enjoy the atmosphere and grab a drink at a local cafe right by the water.

• Mountain of the Dead: Explore a hillside cemetery containing over 2,000 ancient tombs.

  • Highlight: Visit the Tomb of Si-Amun, renowned for its beautiful, preserved paintings depicting Si-Amun in sacred rituals.

🌅 Evening: Magical Sunsets & Desert Jeeps

• Fatnas Island: As the day winds down, we head to this palm-lined paradise on the edge of a salt lake. It is the place for a breathtaking sunset view.

• Local Treasures: Before we head out, check out the famous local products—Siwa is world-renowned for its high-quality dates and olives!

• Jeep Safari: The excitement ramps up as we board jeeps for a thrilling ride into the desert dunes under the evening sky.

🌙 The Return

• Evening: After a day of wonder, we begin our journey back to the hotel for a well-earned rest.
