Our family immersions seek to capture something very unusual for those who grow up dreaming about Egypt and its ancient wonders - pyramids, tombs and temples. 

We are so fortunate - because Siwa has an extraordinary history - but is away from the main tourist trails of Egypt. Temples in Siwa are often empty. Tombs that have never been excavated. Ruins laying deserted in the sand dunes. It’s an exciting place to discover and explore.

Hosting families with us in Siwa is an essential part of our lifestyle - bringing like-minded children into the lives of our kids. We’ve created an amazing community of beautiful families - from all over the world - and have been lucky to catch up with some of them as we head to Europe - and hope for that to keep expanding and developing into new opportunities.

Our three children were all born in Siwa (Luca is 15, Astra 11 and Indigo 5) and we spend eight months of the year living our oasis life. During the warmer season we head to England and Italy to be with family and friends.

As is usually the case with extraordinary places - lots of extraordinary people live here. We have an incredible network of musicians, artists, writers, architects, archaeologists, martial artists, engineers, photographers and much more. We harness their amazing skills and enthusiasm to deliver personalised and fully bespoke programmes to enrich and inspire.

It’s a very different life for all of us - fulfilling and deeply gratifying - somewhat removed from the pressures of tech and screens - offering a deep connection to nature - to themselves - and to each other.

Most of the families who stay with us come for 2 to 6 weeks. We strongly recommend an immersion of at least a week - and for those who really enjoy slowing down to find their oasis rhythm - 8 weeks is ideal.

We prioritise older children to compliment the experiences of our own family - and for that reason we offer significant discounts for families with older children (12+) staying a minimum of one month. 

More details about pricing and discounts available upon request.

We also provide logistical support and guidance - planning and advice for either side of our own immersions. With a comprehensive range of recommended hosts and guides - trusted partners - excellent drivers - places to stay - and optimal itineraries. These have been built up over twenty years of raising a family here in Egypt - and hosting more than sixty families from all over the world - each looking to have their own personal adventure in this extraordinary part of the world - where the ancient seamlessly blends with modern life.
