Fayoum / White Desert
This is without a doubt the most picturesque desert in the Sahara. From the depths of the Farafra Depression rise unbekievable limestone formations sculpted by the winds into countless shapes and sizes. A surprising world where nature gives us a glimpse of its creativity. Accompanied by camels, our itinerary takes us through valleys, plateaus and sebkha to discover the most beautiful sites in this astonishing region.
