Farafra Hotel Tips by sachara

White Desert, bedroom with a splendid view

Not only the nights in the desert are fascinating.
To see the sunrise from your sleeping bag and to watch the beautifull morninglight at the white mushrooms of the white desert, it's a fairytale.
It's not to describe in words, you have to experience it yourself.

White Desert, spacious bedroom

It's a fascinating experience to sleep outside in the desert, especially in the white desert with the surrealistic white sculptural forms in the moonlight.
The stars in the sky are very bright in the desert. I can't stop looking at it. Often you see falling stars too. Once we saw a rain of falling stars.

The temperature at night in april and may is very good, not cold and not hot. A thin sleeping bag will do.
Sometimes you have to hide your face against some blowing sand.
