Day two continues with Crystal Mountain, the Black Desert and a stop at the hot spring in the Valley of El Haize before returning to Cairo.

Where will I sleep overnight?

You’ll camp overnight in the White Desert, one of Egypt’s most striking landscapes of wind-carved white chalk formations. It’s a magical way to experience the desert’s silence and star-filled sky far from the city.

What will I see at the Black Mountains and Ain El Muftella?

The Black Mountains are covered in dark volcanic rock and sand dunes, and you’ll also visit a salt lake and the Temple of Ain El Muftella, once the main water source for the old oasis capital. As the sun sets, you’ll stop at the ruined English House for one of the tour’s most memorable views.

What's the Crystal Mountain and Valley of Ashgabat like?

On day two, you’ll head to Crystal Mountain to see its natural quartz crystal formations, then continue into the Black Desert to view the volcanic reddish rocks and petrified wood of the Valley of Ashgabat before soaking in the hot spring at the Valley of El Haize.

Is a 4x4 vehicle needed for this trip?
