Siwa Oasis - The Best Adventure in Egypt

Episode 15 | #siwa #egypt | August 2023

Siwa is an oasis in the middle of the Egyptian desert about 50km from the Libyan border. This was by far one of the greatest adventures we have had and are so grateful we made the decision to take the journey out here. The people, culture, and landscape were beautiful. We hope you feel how special this place is and maybe even make the trip!
