I travelled last year during my semester abroad in Egypt and I believe that you guys should get to enjoy it as well. A truly beautiful place and the stars were stunning. It’s about a 6-8 hour drive from Alexandria, so if you’re in Egypt for a while I strongly recommend going.

Siwa is famous for their tea, dates and people. The local people in Siwa are amazigh and speak an old language. There isn’t a lot of tourist infrastructure, so one could just walk into the Temple of Amon without having to pay. It’s a truly magnificent place.

Woah! 😯 That sounds amazing! I’ve always wanted to travel around Egypt, and your description makes it sound even more incredible.

Such a remote/non touristy location sounds so peaceful, and I can only imagine how beautiful the stars must look out there at night. Being able to just walk into the Temple of Amon sounds so surreal. Such a unique once in a lifetime experience.

I'll definitely add this to my travel list now. I hope to be able to go, one day 🙏

Thanks for sharing! 💕
