We'll spend our Eid vacation in the White Desert, one of Egypt's most unique and distinctive places. We'll enjoy the beauty of the sky, far from pollution, and enjoy the desert under the stars in a special camp.
The Bahariya Oasis, about four hours from Cairo, is famous for its palm trees and natural sulfur springs. Its center is the city of Bawiti.
We'll enjoy the sky during the trip with an astronomical program presented by the Egyptian Astronomical Society team.
