Egypt – Off the Grid Hidden Secrets

July 6, 2024 by Steve Cosgrove 4 Comments

We all know about the pyramids in Egypt and the Nile River. We have heard all about Cairo and even Alexandria. But have you heard of the Valley of the Whales or the White Desert or Fayyoum Oasis? These are just a few of the off the beaten tourist trails that you might want to check out for your next trip to Egypt.

VALLEY OF THE WHALES: Fascinating Wadi El Hitan is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Western Desert, best known for its fossilized whale skeletons and surreal desert landscape, highly Instagrammable!

LIGHTHOUSE REEF: Less crowded dive site than others with pristine coral formations and vibrant marine life

AMARNA: Incredible ruins of this short-lived capital still on display, providing a glimpse into the unconventional period of Akhenaten’s rule with its unique architectural style

WHITE DESERT: A journey unto itself where one can marvel at the surreal chalk rock formations and camp under the stars for an unforgettable experience.

FAYYOUM OASIS: Known for its stark natural beauty and archaeological sites, it’s a haven for exploration through ruins of ancient cities, pair it with a boat trip on Lake Qarun for amazing birdlife

GHARB SAHEIL;Take a boat trip to visit this Nubian village and experience traditional culture, colorful houses, home cooking and warm hospitality

SIWA OASIS: An isolated desert oasis and a spectacular place to explore ruins, swim in Cleopatra’s Bth and experience the distinct Berber culture

MOUNT SINAI SUNRISE HIKE: Tackle this climb at sunrise and by the time you summit, you’re rewarded with panoramic views of the Red Sea and surrounding mountains that are spectacular in the morning light.

Ten palaces, forts and heritage stays across Asia

Europe gets the castles, but Asia’s fortresses, palaces, madrasas, and merchant mansions also offer beds for the night.

Twelve fit these criteria: six in England and six in Scotland, all open and taking bookings now. Not all are […]
