Cairo & Nile
BAOBAB's Cairo & Nile tour is an opportunity to combine the cultural sites of Cairo with an opportunity to visit the less frequented desert black and white desert and Baharyia Oasis. Our English speaking guide will inform you of the history of the famous city of Cairo with visits to its mosques, churches and of course Pharonic history. You will finish with the chance to unwind in the solitude of the desert and enjoy some traditional Beduoin hospitality. To the north of Cairo the desert contains some of Egypt's hidden treasures including remarkably well preserved mummies and wind blasted rock sculptures which defy the imagination.

Two experienced, British yoga teachers will lead all yoga, meditation and shiatsu workshops, focusing on body, mind and spirit. You will be based partly in Dahab, practising yoga overlooking the Gulf of Aqaba, and partly in on camel safari in the Sinai. The desert houses some awesome natural plateaus, smoothed and eroded by the wind, seemingly especially for yoga practise.
