Why this trip
Far from the Nile, in the western desert of Egypt, lies an oasis that hardly knows haste. Siwa is a place of palm groves, salt lakes and mud-brick houses, and the stillness of the desert begins right behind the edge of the village. From October to April the climate is pleasant and the nights are cool. Bathing in a spring such as Cleopatra's Spring is among the calm pastimes, as is a walk through the palms in the evening.
The mud-brick fortress of Shali towers over the village centre and forms a landmark that can be explored in an hour. The Temple of the Oracle of Amun, which Alexander the Great also visited, lies on a hill on the edge. If you like, drive into the sea of dunes and experience sunset and starry sky there. Siwa lies remote, so the journey of about 4 to 4.5 hours of flying time counts only in part, because a long drive follows.
Plan the time for rest generously, then. El Gouna and Marsa Alam on the Red Sea offer a contrast with water. Wellness clarifies with you in a video call which stages make sense in this trip and how much distance you want to cover.
Getting there
So that recovery begins early, Wellness plans the journey from Zurich or Basel-Mulhouse with as little stress as possible.
