What To Expect
We will take you around the capital with stops at key photo spots. Our guides are licensed to provide priority access to most attractions - saving you time and hassle.
Sultan Hassan and Refai Mosques Complex. Unique in its size, craftsmanship, and decorative variety - you will explore this architectural masterpiece inside and out.
Saladin Citadel and Mohammed Ali Mosque (exterior). The dominating citadel with mosques and palaces - the main attraction and symbol of the capital. Serving as the residence of Egypt's rulers for over 850 years.
Felucca Boat Ride on the Nile River. We will explore the city from a new perspective - from the water.
Old Coptic Quarter. Cairo is known as the city of a thousand minarets, but mosques and pyramids are not all it has to offer. You will see the Coptic quarter - an ancient stronghold of Christianity. Its history dates back to the time when the religion of Ancient Egypt faded away, and Islam had not yet arrived.
