Our 6-day trip was taken in October across the Egyptian cities of Cairo and Luxor with an overnight journey through the White and Black Deserts. After a red-eye flight into Cairo and connection down to Luxor, we began our journey by exploring through this ancient city and amazing crypts and temples throughout the area via private hot air balloon ride and guided tour. We then migrated back to Cairo for a night across the street from the Sphynx (yes, that one!) before departing on and adventure through the surreal landscapes and formations of the Black and White Deserts and spending the night camping under the stars. We returned back to Cairo the next day via the Bahariya Oasis to check in at the Mena House located right next to the pyramids in Giza. Our final day we wandered amongst the pyramids and devoured our way through the Khan el-Khalili bazaar and a food tour before we flew out in the middle of the night. This was a short, but diverse immersion into Egypt’s amazing sights and culture!
