Travel in a small group of up to 10 people by air-conditioned minivan to Bahariya Oasis, then switch to a 4×4 for the Black Desert, Crystal Mountain and the Agabat valley before reaching the chalk-white rock formations of the White Desert National Park. Dinner is a Bedouin barbecue by the fire, and the night is spent camping in the desert.
