Begin your day by exploring the ancient mud-brick ruins of Shali Fortress, offering panoramic views of Siwa town. Wander through the vibrant local market, absorbing the unique Siwan atmosphere.
Refresh yourself at the famous Cleopatra Spring, a natural spring where legend says the Egyptian queen herself once bathed. Enjoy the cool, clear waters and lush surroundings.
Journey to the Temple of the Oracle of Amun, a site of immense historical significance where Alexander the Great sought his destiny. Your guide will recount its fascinating tales.
Visit the Mountain of the Dead, an ancient Roman necropolis carved into a conical mountain, housing beautifully decorated tombs offering a glimpse into Siwa's past.
Experience the extraordinary sensation of floating in Siwa's hyper-saline salt lakes. The buoyant water and unique mineral properties are incredibly invigorating and provide stunning photo opportunities.

Relax and unwind in a secluded natural hot spring within the desert. The warm, mineral-rich waters are perfect for soothing tired muscles after your safari.
