Fayoum Sightseeing
At early morning your driver will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo and transfer you to El Fayoum which is situated about 95 km from. Fayoum Oasis is a wonderful bird watching destination in Egypt. Birds migrate to Fayoum oasis for the lush plants and the waters of Lake Quarun, the largest salt water lake in Egypt. Upon your arrival at Fayoum, you will be met by your local tour guide to start your tour around Quarun lake, then drive towards Wadi El Rayyan protected area to enjoy Wadi El Rayyan waterfalls. Wadi El Rayan is a natural depression located in the western desert, 42m below sea level which consists of two lakes connected by Egypt's only waterfalls, formed in 1970 by an overflow of drainage water from the farmlands in Fayoum. Then continue driving to Tunis village to enjoy watching other birds with opportunity to have a relaxing lunch in a good quality restaurant. Move on to visit the famous Pottery school in El Fayoum before driving back to your hotel in Cairo.
How Private Tour Works
Accommodation
Enjoy comfortable stay at competitive rates and with insider bonus of our partnership with international hotel chains and local ones. Most of the options are recommended based on our field inspection to ensure quality. Kindly note that hospitality service in remote area can hardly maintain the same standard as those in the city.
Meals
Meals provided will be clearly outlined in the confirmed itinerary. In most cases, breakfast is served in hotel. To make the trip go smooth, lunch is recommended to be included for set menu or a la carte, local flavor or western style, depending on your liking. Restaurants are selected according to positive feedback with your diet requirements in mind. Dinner is the time when you are free to explore the destination’s hidden delights, but we are always happy to give recommendation or offer assistance. In remote area, meals are likely to be arranged in tourist restaurant or a local family due to limited options.
Tour Guide & Transfer
Every tour comes with English-speaking guides (or other languages on request) and private transfer in each city. The licensed, professional tour guides are from local and will be a friendly, knowledgeable company to travel with. When it comes to your personal driver or chauffeur guide, they are experienced and service-minded, all driving well-maintained, air-conditioned vehicles.
Any part of this itinerary can be altered to fit your needs, e.g.accommodation, add/skip city, tour length...
