This trip wasn’t your usual camel ride desert cliché . Instead , it was packed with actual history and jaw-dropping nature . From the strange beauty of Wadi Hitan to the quiet elegance of Mudawara , it felt like a dream .
The guide gave us binoculars at Wadi El Rayan so we could spot birds and small desert animals . That extra touch made me smile . We took home more than just photos — we took real knowledge and peace of mind .
Roy Dean Lancaster –
We visited so many different spots in just one day , I was shocked at how much Egypt hides beyond Cairo . Wadi El Rayan was peaceful , with cool breezes and birds flying above . The fossil valley made me feel like Indiana Jones , and Medinet Madi was a hidden archaeological gem .
What I liked most was that we were never bored — every hour brought a new adventure . And yes , the lunch stop was delicious ! 🍲

The tour was very well-organized and gave us the chance to step outside Cairo’s busy streets . Fayoum was a quiet escape , with green fields and peaceful lake views . We visited Medinet Madi , where we saw ruins from an old city that most tourists don’t know about .
Wadi El Rayan had such unique views , and our guide even let us walk barefoot in the soft dunes . My husband and I appreciated how easygoing the day was — no pressure , just good sights and great company .
Wade Clifton Sanders –
Who knew Egypt had so much more than pyramids ? This tour showed me a completely different side of the country . The desert wasn’t just sand — it had hidden lakes , ancient cities , and even whale skeletons .
Wadi Hitan was the real standout . Our guide was a paleontology nerd ( in the best way ) and made the science come alive . The whole area felt sacred .
Definitely one for those who love natural wonders .
June Ellen McCoy –
We ended the tour sitting at the base of Mudawara Mountain , just watching the sky turn orange and pink . It was one of the most peaceful moments of my life . Before that , we explored so many places I didn’t even know existed — ancient cities , desert fossils , waterfalls in the sand .
I loved how everything felt raw and untouched . We weren’t rushed , and we got to hike a bit , take pictures , and really connect with nature .
Highly memorable day that I’ll be telling stories about forever .
Billy Ray Ford –
Everything about this tour screamed comfort and quality . The van was new and clean , with cold drinks and USB ports ( yes , really ) . Our guide was funny and knew how to keep us awake during the drive with stories about the area .
Wadi Hitan was a highlight — learning about the evolution of whales in the desert was something I’ll never forget 🐋 . We walked through sandstone hills that used to be part of the ocean millions of years ago .
Top-tier experience all the way .
Marla Sue Whitman –
The trip to Fayoum was smooth , scenic , and full of local color . We especially enjoyed the drive through the countryside — passing by villages , farms , and palm trees swaying in the wind 🌴 .
Wadi El Rayan was a gem , and the guide shared fascinating details about the formation of the lakes and the waterfalls . It felt like we were somewhere in Africa , not the Egypt you see in postcards .
I appreciated the slower pace of the day , giving us time to relax and soak in the atmosphere .
Luther James Perkins –
We spent a day outside the city and it felt like entering a different country . El Fayoum was green and full of life in the middle of the desert . We visited Medinet Madi , which I hadn’t heard of before — it’s an ancient city that still has temples and paved streets . Our guide walked us through them and explained the significance of the site in the Greco-Roman period .
Wadi El Rayan had waterfalls , actual waterfalls in Egypt ! It was a relaxing stop and perfect for photos . Such a different side of Egypt than the pyramids .
Daisy Ann Reynolds –
I didn’t expect to fall in love with a desert , but Wadi Hitan was absolutely breathtaking . The fossil remains are so well-preserved , and the vast silence of the valley makes you feel like you’re walking through time . Our guide had fossils in his backpack to show us , and the site is recognized by UNESCO for good reason .
Also , big shoutout to the comfy van with great AC and the stops for tea and snacks . It felt luxurious yet rooted in nature . We left Cairo in the morning and got back before dinner — tired but very happy .
Travis McGraw –
We had a truly unforgettable day exploring El Fayoum with Luxor and Aswan Travel . It’s amazing how many different landscapes we saw in just a few hours . Wadi El Rayan was gorgeous — the waterfalls in the desert felt like something out of a movie . Then Wadi Hitan completely blew my mind . Real fossils , just lying there in the sand , untouched for millions of years 🦴 . The guide explained everything in such an engaging way , I didn’t want the tour to end .
We ended the day watching the sun dip behind Mudawara Mountain , sipping tea like locals . It was peaceful and adventurous at the same time .
