Itinerary

1. Wadi El-Rayan
The valley of Wadi El-Rayan is an area of 1759 km2, 113 km2 of which are the dominating water body of the Wadi El Rayan lakes. It is located about 65 km southwest of Faiyum city and 80 km west of the Nile River. The Wadi has been used for man-made lakes from agricultural drainage which has made a reserve of the two separate Wadi El Rayan Lakes. The reserve is composed of a 50.90 km2 upper lake and a 62.00 km2 lower lake, with waterfalls between the two. Among the springs, there are three sulphur springs at the southern side of the lower lake, with extensive mobile sand dunes. Wadi El Rayan Waterfalls are considered to be the largest waterfalls in Egypt. At the south and southeast of the springs is Gabal Manqueer Al Rayan, where marine fossils and archeological remains are found. Gabal Madwera, near the lower lake, is known for its extensive dune formations.
Duration: 240 mins
2. Valley of the Whales (Wadi Al-Hitan)
is a paleontological site in the Faiyum Governorate of Egypt, some 150 kilometres (93 mi) south-west of Cairo. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in July 2005 for its hundreds of fossils of some of the earliest forms of whale, the archaeoceti (a now extinct sub-order of whales). The site reveals evidence for the explanation of one of the greatest mysteries of the evolution of whales: the emergence of the whale as an ocean-going mammal from a previous life as a land-based animal. No other place in the world yields the number, concentration and quality of such fossils, nor their accessibility and setting in an attractive and protected landscape. The valley was therefore inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2005.
Duration: 180 mins
3. Qasr Qarun and Medinet Quta
Explore the natural beauty of Egypt with a visit to Wadi El Rayan Water Falls & Medinet Madi. Marvel at the stunning waterfalls cascading down rock formations, surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking scenery. After soaking in the beauty of the falls, step back in time at Medinet Madi, an ancient archaeological site filled with historical artifacts and ruins. Immerse yourself in the rich history and serene landscapes of Wadi El Rayan Water Falls & Medinet Madi for an unforgettable adventure.
