Wolrd War 11 – Siwa

Ever wanted to walk in the Sahara Desert?

Experience the Berber culture...

Before going for a private swim?

Want us to show you a different Cairo?

See the pyramids before the crowds arrive...

...and get some great pictures

Want to smell the real Khan el Khalili...

...with not a tourist in site?

We then bring you down to Siwa Oasis...

...and light the fire before you arrive

Sleep in the comfort of the Siwa Villa

Designed to Boutique Hotel standards...

...whilst keeping to our name (arched windows on the left)

We explain some history

Prepare lunch for our trip...

... out beyond the oasis.

There is lots to see in Siwa Oasis

A lot to explore

It is like no where else.

Then there is the desert

Whilst Mohammad cleans the villa...

...you can have that lunch... here

Go sandboarding

With your friends...

... or learn to fly, on your own.

Photograph in your own time during the day

Or at sunset

Or just take it all in with a G&T

Let your thoughts go

And watch the sun go down

In the morning, chill on the roof terrace

Relax before the jeep arrives at the Siwa Villa...

...so you can do it all again

Hang out with the old boys

See a different part of the desert

Go for a swim in the salt lake

or take your shoes off for an evening stroll

Head back to the villa in Siwa...

...or go for a skinny dip here, after the tourists have gone

We live in the greatest sand sea on earth

It really is somewhere different :)

Interesting bit of footage of the Italians?? coming into Siwa in WW11. Some great shots of the Shali from the air and the officers club that is across the road from the Siwa Villa, well was. The film is all in german so pity you can’t understand any of it, unless your Italian of course, but worth watching anyway to see Siwa as it was in the 40′s.
