Gilf Kebir, 400km from the nearest, petrol station or bread shop. Somewhere Different is in the process of putting together an all inclusive holiday to Gilf Keber that includes the Pyramids in Cairo and three days in the Siwa Villa to experience life in Siwa and the surrounding desert.

We will start in Cairo, meeting you at the airport and staying in a very nice traditional hotel in Down Town. A three hour horse ride around the pyramids will be followed by a trip to 'Islamic Cario' and a 5km walk through the medieval streets and markets. We will then move down to Siwa were we will stay in the Siwa Villa experiencing the Siwan culture, eating with locals and visiting the highlights of the surrounding desert.

We make final checks and head off for Bahariya and the Gilf beyond, staying for a few days on the Gilf and returning through the great sand sea to Siwa where you will stay in the Siwa Villa once again and then move on to Cairo and off home. The size of the groups we are able to take are a minimum of six increasing by 3 people at a time ( the number of people traveling in a jeep), so we can accommodate 9, 12, 15 and so on up to as many as you like.

The more people that travel, the safer it is due to the additional number of jeeps making the journey. All jeeps will be 60 Toyota Land Cruisers and be fully prepared for the trip.

The difference with our trips is we do not add in additional travelers to the group. If we don't get a group of people of more than nine people, we just don't go. The trip is personalised for your group and your individual interests.

There may be a small additional cost for late bookings for flights if you are coming at a busy time and the cost of flights are higher than normal ... so book in advance;)
