Bawiti

Giza Governorate, Egypt

4.5 (0)

Overview

Town in the Egyptian depression of el-Bahriya. It lies in Egypt's desert belt, best visited between October and April.

Why visit: Siwa, Bahariya and Dakhla — mud-brick towns and palm groves hundreds of kilometres into the desert, each with its own dialect and customs.

Things to do

›Cycle between the springs and palm groves — the oases are flat and small
›Soak in a hot or cold spring at either end of the day
›Use the oasis as the base for a desert overnight
›Bring cash; ATMs are scarce and often empty
