Whether walking through the dense palm grove of the Siwa Oasis or along the narrow streets of the Shali fortress, built entirely of kerchief (a mixture of rocks, mud and salt), visiting the tombs on the ‘Mountain of the Dead’ or the Temple of the Oracle, where legend has it that Alexander the Great was crowned King of Egypt, or even cooling off at Cleopatra’s Springs, you breathe in an aura of mystery that does not fade as you admire the vivid colours of the turquoise and reddish waters of its salt lakes, nor the undulating sands of the Sahara that stand out against the backdrop.
What’s more, on this special New Year’s Eve trip, you’ll visit Cairo with its mosques and bustling souk, as well as see the Sphinx, the Pyramids of Giza and the new GEM (Great Egyptian Museum).
