Bakhary Dvigayass oasis from Bakhariya further Moving from Bakhariya further
Though to an oasis Siva conducts the equal road (420 km), practical obstacles can be awful. All travellers are obliged to have permission (10 dollars of the USA from the person, 100 dollars for 10 or more people) which during the current time the operator who is carrying out a safari can receive only, and is exclusive in Cairo. Each person should provide a copy of own passport and the visa, and procedure takes few 24 hours or maybe 2-3 days. Local drivers demand for a trip of 1100 pounds or more (1500 to stay overnight in the desert), and can be very heavy to find enough of travellers to lower cost to applicable level. Those who goes on the car (it is desirable a jeep), should be careful - on the road there are no conveniences, only control points, 200 km of the road are in very bad condition. The way takes few seven hours if on the road there is a lot of sand - that even more. If you want to pass on this route, try to make it in other direction as in Siva to execute formalities even simpler.
If you have enough desert, once a day four buses go to Cairo (5 hours, 20 pounds). You can order places on flights 6:30 and 10:00 which leave from a booking booth (9:00-13:00 and 19:00-23:00) about mail, but not on buses from Farafra and Dakhla which take away passengers of boundaries 11:30 and poludny, at midnight and 1:00 from Baviti's Hillal Coffeshop.
Tourists who not ворачиваются to Cairo, bezizbezhno move further to an oasis Farafra, and on the road stop from time to time for the night in the Snow-white desert. Though the most part of people get to the Snow-white desert on a safari, there it is possible to reach and by the bus, on flight which drives off between poludny and 13:00. For groups which want to go specifically to Farafra, maybe, it is necessary to employ an eight-local share taxi (200 pounds). Can be to get over from Bakhariya to Farafra and by passing cars, but make sure that the driver goes up to the end, ask drivers on control пт. the 180-kilometre route takes about 3 hours. Those who expects to reach the Snow-white desert to a decline, should allow time for the camp equipment. Refuel fuel in Baviti as to Farafra there are no petrol stations, use station Misr on lateral streets behind policlinic - least probably that its petrol bad. The trip asks about 100 l. fuel, from which 20 l. will leave on a site where there is route, no boundaries the Crystal mountain, Agabat and the Snow-white desert.
