Siwa Highlights & Great Sand Sea Camping

After breakfast, we visit the Mountain of the Dead (Gebel al-Mawta), which features a large number of tombs carved into the mountain that are dating back to the the 26th Dynasty (664 BC–525 BC) and the Ptolemaic era (305 BC–30 BC), Cleopatra’s Pool, a swimming pool fed by a natural hot spring, the Temple of the Oracle, and finish with Bir Wahed, a sulfurous spring outside Siwa. For the night, we camp out in the desert on the shores of the Great Sand Sea.
