Ganztägiges privates Erlebnis zur Vogelbeobachtung in Fayoum

This was a great opportunity to see local birds in unconventional places along the roadside. Mohamed was knowledgeable and focused to make this a good experience to see a wide variety of birds. The flamingos were a sight to behold in the Qaroun Protected Area. We ended the experience with fresh squeezed juice at a local restaurant before the drive back to Giza.

Be warned, this is not a birdwatching tour. We were expecting a tour to see the birds of Fayoum with a guide knowledgeable of the birds of the area. Unfortunately our guide had no knowledge of the birds, he only knew a few of the sites that the tour is supposed to stop at for birds. We were given a paper with a few birds found in the area that is full of errors. We were told to tell the guide when we wanted to stop along the way to look for birds. For the price of this tour, a knowledgable bird guide should be expected, with knowledge of the area and places to stop for target species. Our guide made the most of the situation and did his best to help us have a good time include taking us for falafel and coffee, which was very enjoyable. That is why I rated the tour 2 stars rather than 1. Otherwise, for bird watching we could have had the same experience for much cheaper taking an Uber or hiring a driver to drive us along the lake shore of Fayoum, as we had to pick the stops and find all the birds ourselves using out own abilities and research. This was a huge disappointment and the biggest waste of money on our entire trip

Sehr ruhige und romantische Landschaft mit herrlicher Aussicht. Umweltfreundliche Menschen mit tollem Essen! Als Tourist zu empfehlen.
