Nice desert and waterfalls tour - It's worth going in this trip if you enjoy desert roads and landscapes,a relaxing day away from busy cairo.Wadi hitan fossils are very well preserved and interesting to see. Lunch was pretty basic and no mineral water was provided but driver was nice and stopped at a gas station where I bought myself.
