Egypt Desert Life
Getting There

By Beth Hart

Start out in Bahariya Oasis, about 350km S.W. of Cairo in the western desert.

Bahariya is a large Oasis where about 450,000 people live. Of the five major desert oases it is the closest to Cairo (though on the bus ride you will probably wish it was closer). From there you can head out into the desert, sometimes called the great sand sea.
