Journey to Egypt

Day 1: We arrived in Cairo. Since there was no check-in arranged in the morning, we decided to take a Cairo city walk. We visited City Stars, which is the largest mall in Africa. The variety of goods was dazzling and overwhelming. Day 2: We set off at four in the morning to Siwa. After a 10-hour journey, we visited the Shali market. The souvenirs here are all handmade and very meaningful. I suggest everyone buy as much as possible because these souvenirs cannot be found elsewhere. Later, we visited the Cleopatra spring, which is said to be where the Queen of Egypt once bathed. In the evening, we went to Fetnas Island to enjoy the beautiful sunset and tasted the fresh milk with dates juice, which was very delicious. The scenery here is also very suitable for taking photos. Day 3: In the morning, we went to the salt lake and prepared swimsuits and sunscreen in advance. In the afternoon, we headed to the Sahara Desert to experience the fun of dune bashing and sand sliding. At night, we camped in the desert, tasted the campfire evening tea, and enjoyed an unforgettable desert journey. Day 4: Our group departed from Siwa to Matrouh. The journey was long and tedious. If time permits, I suggest staying in Matrouh for one night to enjoy the local customs. In the evening, we had a seafood feast, but the taste was just average. Day 5: Our itinerary was quite tight. We first visited the Giza Pyramid Complex and the Sphinx, and even rode on local camels. In the afternoon, we visited the Egyptian Museum and the Khalili market. Due to the tight schedule, I suggest splitting these two attractions into separate visits to avoid an overly hectic schedule. In the evening, we ended our journey in Cairo Luxor.
