Things to do in Cairo

Cairo: The City of a Thousand Minarets

Cairo is chaotic, loud, dusty, and utterly magnificent. It is the beating heart of the Arab world. While most come for the Pyramids, they leave falling in love with the city's rich medieval history and vibrant street life. Our Cairo Group Tours offer a safe and structured way to explore this massive metropolis.

The Ancient & The Medieval

• The Pyramids of Giza & Sphinx: Located on the Giza Plateau on the outskirts of the city, these are the icons of antiquity. Our tours include entry tickets and the best photo spots for that "kissing the Sphinx" shot.
• The Egyptian Museum (or GEM): Home to the world's most important collection of ancient artifacts, including the golden mask of King Tutankhamun and the Royal Mummies Hall.
• Citadel of Saladin: Perched on a hill overlooking the city, this medieval fortress houses the stunning alabaster Mosque of Muhammad Ali.
• Khan el-Khalili Bazaar: Step into a 14th-century souk. Navigate the maze of narrow alleys filled with the scent of spices and perfume, and bargain for lanterns, jewelry, and souvenirs.

Modern Cairo In the evenings, Cairo comes alive. Enjoy a dinner cruise on the Nile with belly dancing shows or visit the upscale districts of Zamalek for world-class dining.
