Though a Cairo half-day tour can glimpse the major sites of the city like the Pyramids of Giza and the Egyptian Museum, it may not be enough to appreciate the depth of the city’s history and culture. If you are looking for a more elaborate package on the other hand, think of, Cairo day trips, which give room to explore the various sites and activities present in the city.
Apart from historical tours, guests can visit Cairo Tower and see how the city unfolds from above. Enjoy a dynamic Tanoura show which is a traditional dance that forms part of the background of Egypt. Sugary cuisines are also a must while in Egypt - consider venturing into street food markets or eating out in traditional restaurants where koshari, falafels, and many more dishes are served, as it is one of the enjoyments that makes Egypt excursion one of the most complete.
The Egyptian Museum is famous for a great number of collections from the past, more so the treasures of King Tutankhamun and several other mummies illustrating the ancient Egyptian civilization. It is one of the top Cairo things to do, due to its locational advantage in the City of Cairo and its status as the leading center for Egyptian culture and heritage it has to be visited by you.
Indeed, a felucca ride on the Nile in Cairo is a very enjoyable activity that allows one to experience the city from a very different angle. While navigating on the river, you will be able to appreciate in a relaxing and calming manner the beautiful views of the skyline and other historic buildings of Cairo, making it a worthwhile addition to your Cairo tours.
The history and architectural marvels of Egypt, the Great Pyramids of Giza, and the temples of ancient Thebes do not need any introduction. The interesting mix of ancient civilization, art, and history that the country has to offer, combined with the Nile River, always excites a tourist or a history guru. It comes as no surprise that a lot of Egypt day tours permit individuals to visit these spectacular sites and appreciate the history of the nation.
The best time to go to Cairo is between October and April, when it is cooler. For an experience out of this world, visit in February or March and enjoy cultural events such as the Cairo International Book Fair or springtime outdoor activities.
Also highly recommended is koshary, a mix of pasta, rice, lentils, and tomato sauce; falafel made from fava beans; and fresh sugarcane juice bought from street vendors. Always go for stalls that have a high turnover so that you get the freshest food; moreover, always carry cash with you because street vendors hardly accept cards.
The Cairo Metro is relatively inexpensive and will carry you efficiently across town. It is generally touted as one of the best modes of travel in the city.
The Pharaonic Village is one place families can visit to experience life in ancient Egypt in a more hands-on way. The Cairo Opera House sometimes shows child-friendly performances, and the Giza Zoo is also an excellent place to take your kids for exposure to nature.
Yes, almost all half-day tours are fit for all age groups. Guides are generally experts in giving elaboration in the way they can interest children and adults, which makes it a fantastic family experience.
