Overview
Step away from the typical trails and join me for an immersive journey into Siwa Oasis. As a PhD holder in Archaeology and a professional researcher, I don’t just show you the sites; I bring the vibrant history of this Berber oasis to life.
What we will explore:
The Fortress of Shali: Wander through 13th-century mud-brick ruins and understand the traditional Siwi lifestyle.
The Oracle Temple: Stand where Alexander the Great once stood to consult the Oracle of Amun. I’ll share the historical and religious secrets of this legendary site.
The Mountain of the Dead: Discover rock-cut tombs dating from the 26th Dynasty to the Roman period.
Cleopatra’s Bath & Salt Lakes: Relax in natural springs and experience the surreal landscape of the salt mines—perfect for stunning photos.
Why join this tour?
You are getting an academic perspective and a local partner for a seamless experience. As a travel agency partner, I can also arrange desert safaris, eco-lodge stays, and traditional Siwi dinners.
Discover the authentic soul of Siwa through the eyes of a specialist!

Once you arrive at the main bus station, take a 5-minute walk or a short "Tricycle" (local taxi) ride toward the center of town. Look for the massive mud-brick ruins of the Old City (Shali). I will be waiting at the main entrance gate facing the local market.
