From here, you will proceed to visit the Temple of the Oracle, also known as Alexander the Great's Temple, located in the ancient village of Aghurmi. This temple dates back to the 26th Dynasty and played a significant role in ancient Egyptian history.

Your journey continues with a visit to the Temple of Amun Ra at Um Ubeyda, a sacred site dedicated to the triad of gods, including Amun.

For thrill-seekers, the adventure continues with sandboarding on the towering dunes of the Great Sand Sea. Although not as fast as snowboarding, the exhilarating rush of gliding down the soft, golden sands creates a unique thrill. With the right wax, you'll smoothly sail down the dunes, adding extra excitement to your experience.

After the adrenaline rush, relax with a soothing dip in the hot spring waters of Bir Wahid, where the calming 40°C temperature will ease your muscles and refresh your spirit.

These ancient burial sites provide a glimpse into Siwa’s rich history and its deep connections to ancient Egypt.
