Places worth Visiting in Farafra

The White Dessert

As we read above, Farafra is known as the land of the white desert in Egypt, and the white desert is the crown jewel of this enchanting oasis. Imagine a place that resembles the moon, where white stone and chalk formations rise from the floor of the desert, creating a tableau of white peaks and valleys. The places become more magical during the peak hours of sunrise and sunset. With colorful sunrises and sunsets, the landscape changes its colors to beautiful warm, and golden hues. If you are someone who enjoys capturing frames, then Farafra is a dream place for you. If you are planning a trip to Egypt, then you must include a visit to the White Desert in your Farafra Oasis tour packages with Yup Africano.

Magic Spring

Farafra is primarily known for its desert and white moonlike landscape; however, this hidden gem has another hidden spot named Magic Spring. Magic Spring is a surprising spring in the middle of the desert with sweet water surrounded by arid desert land. The locals believe that the spring water has healing properties, and it is a famous spot among tourists and locals to relax and rejuvenate. You can cover these popular spots in Egypt and then proceed towards Bahariya. You can get complete details on Farafra to Bahariya Oasis tour packages with Team Yup Africano. You can either directly call us or drop us a contact request on our website.

Let Us Now Explore the Gems of Bahariya Oasis

Bahariya Oasis: The Gateway to the Sahara

Located about 370 kilometers southwest of Cairo, Bahariya Oasis is frequently referred to as the “Gateway to the Sahara.” This lush oasis is in dramatic contrast to the desert terrain around it and has unique and special attractions that are waiting to be discovered. A visit to Bahariya will make your Egypt trip from Dubai complete and give you memories that will be cherished forever. You can plan easy, customized group trips to Egypt with your entire family with Yup Africano in simple and easy steps.

Places worth Visiting in Bahariya

Valley of the Golden Mummies

If you have grown up watching the History Channel, then we are sure you will love exploring this archeological marvel. In the most recent years, Bahariya Oasis has been a central attraction among tourists from all over the globe for some of the most important archaeological discoveries found in the region. An old graveyard from the Greco-Roman era was discovered in Bahariya, which is called the Valley of the Golden Mummies. You will get to see well-preserved mummies here that are decked with gold jewelry and masks, providing a window into Egypt’s illustrious past. A visit to the Valley of Golden Mummies is a must-have in your Bahariya Oasis tour packages from Dubai.

Black Dessert

When we imagine a dessert, we always imagine golden sand out of habit because this is what we see in most of the desserts around the world. However, when you visit Bahariya with Yup Africano, you will witness a mesmerizing black dessert in the middle of a golden dessert in Bahariya. The black rocks are remnants of an active volcano that erupted thousands of years ago and left these unique black rocks as its residue. The place is popular for pre-wedding and post-wedding photo shoots, along with full-day family picnics and many other activities.

Other noteworthy places to visit and activities to do in Bahariya are hot springs, sandboarding, camel riding, visiting Tombs of the Nobles, taking a sunset safari, bird watching, and indulging in a dessert camp experience.

Capture a Memorable Honeymoon in Zanzibar with These Lifesaving Photography Tips.

In this era of social media, all of us want to share pictures of our trips. Especially when it is a special trip, such as a honeymoon, we and our friends have high expectations for our pictures and videos. Not all of us are talented enough to capture amazing pictures and videos like social media influencers.

So even when we visit picturesque destinations such as Zanzibar, we are unable to capture memorable pictures and videos. With Yup Africano, you don’t have to worry about a thing, as we want travelers to have the best time traveling. From our social media posts to our blogs, we share helpful and useful tips that will enrich your travel experience. In this blog, Yup Africano, a leading travel company in Dubai, will share some amazing photography tips that will help you capture memorable pictures on your honeymoon trip to Zanzibar or even a casual trip anywhere. So read until the end without missing a single point.

Also, read our blog exploring Tanzania’s food and drink scene. The blog lists all the details, from delectable and must-try dishes to Instagram-worthy drinks you must try.

Clean Your Camera Lens

Whether you use a mobile phone to capture your honeymoon in Zanzibar or use a professional digital camera lens is the most important factor that will help you click amazing pictures. Even when you are very careful with handling your mobile phone or camera, you can end up smudging the lens and making spots appear on it. When you travel in groups by booking customized group trips from Dubai to Tanzania, the chances of smudging the lens are even higher as there will be a lot of people handling the equipment.

Take a soft microfiber cloth and, with very gentle hands, clean the lens. This will instantly make your pictures and videos sharper, and you will cherish the memories for a long time. If you are looking for more destinations to explore, read our blog titled Explore the mind-blowing ruins of Siwa.

Focus On Details

When you book Tanzania holiday packages from Dubai for your honeymoon, focus on having fun. When it comes to capturing pictures, you can focus on minor details such as the height and ratio of the landscape. Make sure when you are capturing a frame that your partner’s height and that of the landscape are in a proper ratio. You don’t want your partner to look like a giant by focusing on an angle that makes the hills in the background look shorter.

Similarly, ensure that you focus on sand, seashells, or other natural elements that are abundant in Zanzibar. To get a better focus, you can even use a macro lens or use macro mode on your mobile phone. Many modern digital cameras have a macro mode as well. The macro mode will instantly make your pictures high definition and super good like they are guaranteed on it.

Try Different Perspectives

When you capture pictures on your honeymoon trip, try using different perspectives. With perspectives, we mean camera angles. If you vertically shoot your pictures, try using other ratios such as 16:9 or 3:4. This newer angle will enhance your pictures. Also, remember that you booked holiday packages from Dubai to Tanzania for your honeymoon and not for a photography contest. So the lighter you feel, the better you will experiment, and the more chances you will have to capture good pictures. Along with exploring the beaches of Zanzibar on your honeymoon, you can also do these top 7 thrilling outdoor adventures in Tanzania. These adventurous activities will make your honeymoon even more exciting, and your pictures will be great as well.

Don’t Forget To Click Yourself

When you book a Zanzibar holiday from Dubai for your honeymoon, don’t be so engrossed in clicking landscapes and capturing your partner that you end up forgetting to click yourself. You must also capture pictures of yourself enjoying and cherishing every moment. With Yup Africano’s arrangements, we are sure you will love every moment spent on your honeymoon in Zanzibar. You can either use a selfie stick or a tripod to click your self-portraits or let your partner have the thrill of capturing and clicking.

In addition to a tripod and a selfie stick, you can also invest in a remote shutter that allows you to click your pictures. If you feel too adventurous, a drone is a great option as well. A drone will give you magnificent shots of the scenery Zanzibar has to offer.

Edit Your Pictures Well

There is a reason professional photographers are paid handsomely. And the reason is their editing skills. Good editing can make bad pictures award-worthy. So don’t worry if you mess up by clicking a few bad pictures, but if they are close to your heart, you can always enhance them with editing. Nowadays, there are many AI-powered applications for both desktops and mobile phones that will edit your photographs to their best version. You can even follow a few YouTube tutorials and edit your pictures yourself. Alternatively, you can hire a professional photographer to edit your pictures to make them their best. So when you book your honeymoon Zanzibar tour packages from Dubai, focus on having full-on fun and doing your best. If you mess up, editing can always be the answer.

Concluding Lines

With Yup Africano, you can book customized Dubai tours, group tours, and even private tours for any of your holidays. Our attractive rates and hospitality will make your holidays memorable. When it comes to clicking pictures on your honeymoon, you can have your best clicks by experimenting with different angles, keeping your lens spotless, using a tripod and automatic shutter for clicking, and last but not least, creating magic while editing.

1. Discover Captivating Cities of Africa

If Europe is famous for its architecture and its beautiful cities, then you should not underrate African nations for their cities either. Kenya is home to some of the best cities in the world when it comes to vibrant colors and local natural beauty.

African cities reflect the diversity of the continent. The cities emit an energy that draws tourists and locals into a rhythm, and trust us, exploring a Kenyan city is a worthwhile experience in itself. Visiting these amazing cities alone should be your reason to book Kenya holiday packages from Dubai with Yup Africano.

The reason why people love exploring cities in Kenya so much is that these cities serve as Africa’s major transportation hubs and are historic sites for their exuberant market stalls, skylines, and streets lined with informal traders. Their colorful movement creates a mesmerizing blend on the streets. To make your Kenyan vacation fun, read our blog on 7 amazing things to do in Kenya.

2. Explore the Gorgeous Coastline of Kenya

When people plan their vacation in Kenya, a beach holiday is the last thing on their minds. But visiting some of the most secluded and virgin beaches in Kenya should be your number one reason to include visits to beaches in your holiday packages from Dubai to Kenya.

Ending an African safari with a beach vacation allows your body and mind to recharge. The continent’s beaches are mainly undiscovered and deserted because most tourists are lured to its wildlife-filled interior.

The best beaches in Africa can have imposing forest and mountain backdrops that give the impression that the coastline is being secretly protected by other natural environments to preserve the abundance of nature.

3. Explore the Gedi Ruins

The Malindi Marine National Park is situated in Malindi, where there is a fascinating old city called Gedi. It was constructed in the 13th century and left unfinished for unknown reasons before being buried in a tropical forest and discovered in 1884. Despite having historic roots, the city was discovered to contain modern comforts like infrastructure and indoor plumbing palaces. There is a mosque there as well as coral brick dwellings. The structures’ foreign items add to their mystique.

4. Do White Water Rafting in Sagana

If you love adventure, Kenya has some of the best locations where you can enjoy several adrenaline-pumping activities. If river rafting has been on your bucket list, then Kenya boasts some fantastic locations for it. The most important destinations for this are Sagana and the renowned Sagana River. Even if you are not an adventure junkie, don’t forget to add these destinations to your African safari packages from Dubai. Sagana also offers a variety of additional activities, like ziplining and bungee jumping.

5. Explore Lamu Archipelago

Beach lovers and people who are interested in understanding the region’s history both enjoy visiting Lamu Island. Lamu is the largest island in the archipelago and is brimming with Kenyan artifacts and wonders. Lamu had been colonized by various invaders before gaining independence alongside the rest of Kenya in 1963. The island has hosted Arabs, Persians, Indians, and native Kenyans since the 14th century. All of these cultures have left behind many stone buildings, which are still visible today, along with traces of the old Swahili past. All of this may be found on a tropical island paradise that is only accessible by pathways, alleys, donkeys, and dhows. Yes, you read that right! There are no vehicles on the island. Wouldn’t it be a fantastic adventure? Imagine how fresh and pollution-free the air will be. Visit Lamu to take part in its rich history and culture and taste its delicious cuisine. Don’t forget to add a visit to Lamu to your Kenya safari package from Dubai.

6. Go hiking on Mount Kenya

Don’t forget to add a visit to the magnificent Mount Kenya to your Kenya tour packages from Dubai. Only the renowned Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is taller than this mountain, which is Africa’s second-highest peak. Batian, Nelion, and Point Lenana are the three main summits of Mount Kenya. Batian has the highest elevation of the three at 5,199 meters or 17,057 feet.

The mountain is a 3-million-year-old volcano that spent a significant amount of that time under an ice cover. The ice cap flattened Mount Kenya’s top and carved up several valleys that wind their way down the mountainside. 11 little glaciers are still present today, which is unusual this close to the equator. A 715 km2 (276 miles2) region in Mount Kenya’s center was added to the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1997.

7. Hike or Cycle through Hells Gate National Park

Hell’s Gate National Park is a great place for camping, biking, and trekking south of Lake Naivasha. These are unquestionably must-do activities in Kenya. There are no predators in the magnificent volcanic gorge known as Hell’s Gate, so there is nothing to worry about when you go hiking there. There is an entrance fee; the Kenya Wildlife Services website lists the most recent rates. You can travel on foot or rent a bicycle. There is no better way to see Hell’s Gate than to get out of the car and walk around the landscape. If you decide to hire a bike, it’s a good idea to take it for a short test drive before you set out. It’s also preferable to put off renting until after you enter the park. Yup Africano can make all these arrangements for you.

Go Beyond The Beach in Zanzibar! Explore Wildlife & Thrilling Activities

Zanzibar is considered synonymous with beaches and all activities related to water. But this has to be one of the biggest misconceptions about this beautiful island. When you plan your Zanzibar tour packages from Dubai with Yup Africano, you can do a lot of things apart from beach activities.

Although the Zanzibari beaches are quite fun and one of the best beaches in the world, some other activities, such as taking a spice tour or taking local cooking classes, are worthwhile as well. In this blog, Yup Africano, which is one of the best Dubai customized tour organizers in the entire UAE, will take you through thrilling and adventurous activities beyond beach fun. So stay tuned until the end.

Take a Spice Tour

Apart from beaches, spices are something that Zanzibar is hugely associated with. To most people, spices are frequently the first thing that comes to mind about Zanzibar, and with good reason—they have existed here for almost a thousand years!

Zanzibar’s extraordinary local spices, including essentials like turmeric, vanilla, nutmeg, and pepper, which were farmed and sold by the several distinct cultures that dominated the region over time, played a significant role in the island’s historic trade history. A spice tour will allow you to personally experience these mouthwatering spices as well as the equally savory tales behind them.

One of the most well-known locations for taking a spice tour is Darajani Market, which is situated in the center of Stone Town, the primary cultural and tourist hub on the island. Here, a never-ending line of merchants sells every kind of seasoning imaginable, along with meats, fresh produce, and even some exotic herbs. So don’t forget to add a Zanzibari spice tour to your upcoming holiday packages from Dubai to Tanzania. Also, read our blog on Tanzania’s food and culinary journey if you are a foodie and want to explore yummy food in the country.

Visit House of Wonders

House of Wonders was built in 1883 for the Omani sultan, who dominated the area at the time and was renowned for both its technological innovations and exquisite architectural features over the years. House of Wonders was also the first structure in Zanzibar to use electricity and had the first elevator in all of East Africa!

With a distinctive fusion of common materials like iron and concrete and regional components like mangroves and coral, its design also serves as a crash course in the region’s history. If you are an architecture student, then you must include a visit to the House of Wonders in your Zanzibar holiday from Dubai. Don’t forget to check out the blog on 7 thrilling outdoor activities to do in Tanzania.

Take a Horse Ride along the Coast

If you are someone who doesn’t enjoy getting into the water, then this activity is perfect for you. The ideal location for this activity is the Zanzibar Horse Club, which has a carefully curated stable of friendly and well-trained animals. Yup Africano will customize your horse ride for you and can include some of the best regions from around the city that you can lavishly explore on a horseback. You will get a breathtaking view of the island’s natural beauty, which can be enjoyed at a leisurely pace. You can explore nearby towns, rural paths, and stunning stretches of coastline by jumping on your horse. It’s one of the most unique ways to explore off-the-beaten-path locations in Zanzibar. For this extraordinary experience, it is a must that you include a visit to this gorgeous island in your Zanzibar tour packages from Dubai.

Dine on the Rock Restaurant

Even though it’s difficult to find a bad meal on this spice-miracle island, you will truly enjoy dining at the Rock Restaurant Zanzibar. This restaurant, which stands on a single rock, is a particularly outstanding example of how amazing Zanzibar can get. In addition to being a unique restaurant, it also offers fantastic views from every direction. So fighting for the right spot will never be a thing for you when you visit this place.

The red colobus monkey population in the region is particularly well-known; witnessing one of these gorgeous, energetic, and critically endangered animals is a wonderful pleasure! By making your holiday plans with Yup Africano, you will certainly be making the most of your trips, saving money, and having the best time holidaying.

Visit The People’s Palace

Last on our list is a visit to the People’s Palace in Zanzibar. By visiting this wonderfully built palace, you will learn about the intriguing history of the ruling elite and the cultural influences they had on the island.

The palace was constructed in the late 1800s as a way for monarchs to be close to the city without interacting with the general population. It once had self-contained pathways, so they wouldn’t have to walk down the street! After the empire was toppled in 1964, the palace was turned into a museum where visitors could take a glimpse at the regal era. So whether you are planning a private or group tour with Yup Africano, you can plan customized group trips in Dubai to any part of Africa, including Tanzania and Zanzibar.
