Egypt's most remote oasis: salt lakes you float in, a mudbrick fortress town, Alexander's oracle, and dune runs into the Great Sand Sea.
Siwa is ten hours from Cairo and speaks its own Berber language. Nothing about it feels like the rest of Egypt, which is exactly why people who go once tend to go back.
Salt lakes with a higher density than the Dead Sea, freshwater springs, olive and date groves, and the Great Sand Sea starting where the palms stop.
A long drive via Alexandria and Marsa Matrouh, arriving in the evening.
Shali fortress, the Oracle Temple, the Mountain of the Dead, and sunset at Fatnas.
4x4 into the dunes, sandboarding, the hot and cold springs, and a night in the desert.
Floating in the salt lakes, Cleopatra's Spring, and the olive groves.
The long drive back, arriving in the evening.
