30 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.

You'll visit kid-friendly attractions like Pyramids of Giza and The Museum of Egyptian Antiquities. Explore Cairo's surroundings by going to Giza (Great Sphinx, Musee de la Barque Solaire, &more), Al Badrashin (Mit Rahina Museum & The Sphinx of Memphis) and Saqqara (Mastaba of Kagemni, Saqqara (Sakkara) Pyramids, &more). Spend the 5th (Tue) behind the viewfinder with an inspiring photography tour. On the 14th (Thu), spend a fun day on foot with Walking tours. The adventure continues: get a taste of the local shopping with Khan Al-Khalili, take a stroll through Islamic Cairo, see Off-Road Tours, and identify plant and animal life at Wildlife Areas.
