Excursion Itinerary

A representative from TheTripBooking will come to your Cairo hotel to take you around the well-known El Fayoum sights. It is roughly 95 kilometers from Cairo to Fayoum. All visits now take place in Wadi El Ryan, which was named a Protected Area in 1989. After departing from Fayoum, you will travel about 90 km to the Wadi Hitan Protected Area, known as the Valley of the Whales. Owing to the discovery of whale skeletons that date back 40 million years, Wadi Hitan, also known as the Valley of the Whales, is situated within the Wadi El Rayan Protected Area and has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.  See Mudawara Mountain on the route to Wadi El Rayan Waterfalls. Wadi Al Ryan Waterfalls is the only waterfalls in Egypt found in Wadi El Rayan, a natural depression in the western desert created in 1970 when drainage water from Fayoum's farms overflowed into two lakes. You'll be having a late lunch at a reputable restaurant. Transfer back to Cairo after that.
