For me, once you visited the main magnificent structures of Egypt, there’s nothing better than taking a trip to the desert. If you want to get a feel of the culture, natural beauty, and outlying relics of Egypt, this is a must do. I went camping with Samir of Real Egypt to the Fayoum. We were in petrified forests, ancient sea beds with fossilized animal bones neatly decorating the desert floor, petrified roads built for hauling pyramid building materials, fascinating rock formations, ancient temples, and much more. Even better though, were the laughs, camaraderie, and fun we had, as we trekked through the desert with our so knowledgable and professional guide, Samir, and our fantastic driver, who doubled as a chef and all-around great guy. Did I mention, the wonder of camping under the brilliant stars in the cloak of darkness with a neatly lit fire?
Just a fantastic trip!
