Choose your dates for prices and availability.
Fayoum is two hours from Cairo and the closest you can get to leaving the city behind without boarding a plane. Lake Qarun, Tunis Village with its pottery studios and small guesthouses, the waterfalls at Wadi El Rayan, and Wadi Al-Hitan — the UNESCO valley where whale fossils sit in open desert. Accommodation here is lodges and guesthouses rather than large hotels, which is precisely the point.

About 100 km, an hour and a half to two hours by road — a genuine weekend trip rather than an expedition.

Tunis Village for atmosphere, quiet and the pottery studios; the Lake Qarun shore for a water view; Fayoum City if you want to be nearer to services.
When is the best time to visit Fayoum?
October to April, when the desert and the walking are comfortable. Summer days are hot, though evenings by the lake stay pleasant.
