23 days in Cairo Itinerary

More than 20 million people call Cairo their home and, as soon as you set foot in the sprawling metropolis, it's evident they make it crowded and chaotic, but also exuberant and charming.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Pyramids of Giza and Giza Plateau. Visiting Safaris and Zamalek (Gezira Island) will get you outdoors. Explore Cairo's surroundings by going to Giza (Great Sphinx, Statue of Ramses II, &more), KFB Stables, Abu Sir Pyramids (in Abu Sir) and Saqqara (Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids, Mastaba of Mereruka, &more). Spend the 27th (Sun) behind the viewfinder with an inspiring photography tour. On the 6th (Tue), spend a fun day on foot with Walking tours. And it doesn't end there: examine the collection at The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities, explore the activities along Nile River, stroll around Al-Azhar Park, and contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Mosque and Madrasa of Sultan Hassan.
