Trekking &
Mountain Hiking |

Trekking in the
desert and hiking in the mountainous regions
provides you with details that are frequently
missed. Escorted by local bedouins, we are
introduced to areas accessible only by foot. We
explore hidden valleys, wild fruit trees,
waterfalls, and enjoy spectacular sunrises from
mountain peaks. Education and physical activity
are the main characteristics of our trekking
& hiking expeditions. (See

Historical
& Educational Expeditions |
|
| |
While all of our
expeditions give you information on the places
you visit and the customs of the people living
in those areas, this special program provides
more. As part of this adventure, we take you,
accompanied by expert guides, to archaeological
sites, educational centers, museums and more,
where we take an insider's look at things
normally missed by the casual visitor.

Deep Desert
Expeditions |
|
| |
It has been said that one cannot appreciate
what one has not yet encountered. This exclusive
expedition allows adventure travelers to visit
locations explored by very few people. We follow
the routes of early explorers such as Count
Laszlo Almasy, better known as the “English
Patient,” and take you through unearthly
territories as we explore the most remote
locations in Egypt . (See
sample program # 9) |

Family
Expeditions |
|
| |
Oasis Expeditions organizes
special family expeditions around Egypt so that
those with children can also take part in our
adventures. |
 |
|
Expeditions to
Sudan and Libya (NEW) |
|
| |
We explore not
only Egypt, but also the neighboring countries
as we think that the desert shouldn't be
separated by political borders. We also find
that every part of the desert is unique and
should be visited. |
 |
|
Holistic &
Health Treatment (NEW) |
|
| |
Throughout time,
the oases were well known for their weather,
sulfuric hot springs and mineral rich sands.
Locals and visitors have been coming to this
spot seeking for treatment for rheumatoid
arthritis and other ailments. Our experienced
staff will provide you with a full course of
treatment including massage and sand
burying. |
 |
|
Full
Participation Camping Expeditions |
|
| |
For those
interested in a more economical trip, we do not
reduce the number of special sites we visit to
offer the cheapest price, but rather provide our
clients with a thorough insight to each region
by offering them a choice of full participation
camping expeditions. |
 |
|
Environmental
Expeditions |
|
| |
One of Oasis's passions is the
conservation of plant and animal life in the
Egyptian desert. We follow tracks of endangered
species like the Egyptian Hyena, and record the
discovery of new plant species. |
 |
|
Customized
Expeditions |
|
| |
You may
have specific requirements that are not met by
any of our listed expeditions. For instance, you
may want to spend a few extra days in a specific
area. Or, rather than camping, you may prefer
hotel or lodge based accommodations. You may
want to combine different itineraries to design
your own personal expedition, or just make a few
changes to a pre-existing itinerary to suit your
specific interests or needs. We can help you
design your own personal expedition and advise
you on the feasibility of your request. With
advance notice and communication, Oasis can
custom tailor the right expedition for
you.
