Al Fayoum (also known as El Fayoum) is Egypt's most surprising, most beautiful and most diverse natural site, only 100 kilometers southwest of Cairo. The biggest oasis of Egypt, Al Fayoum, is made of lush farmlands, sparkling lakes and golden deserts, as an ideal city escape.

Wadi El Rayan Nature Reserve, with its breathtaking waterfalls and serene lakes, and Wadi Al-Hitan (Valley of the Whales) — a UNESCO World Heritage site that houses the fossils of ancient whales and tells a part of our planet's incredible evolutionary story — are the most important attractions of this area.

Among the many activities for tourists in this region, one is visiting Lake Qarun, one of the oldest natural lakes in the world, which is great for birdwatching, boating, and picnicking. The adjacent Tunis Village is an artistic village with pottery workshops, eco-lodges, and palm groves and desert hills, which are also its surroundings.
