Everything you need to know when planning a trip to Cairo

Cairo, Egypt's sprawling capital, was at the heart of the ancient civilisations. Its heritage is that of the pharaohs and the Islamic culture. A fascinating blend of mysterious past and bustling present, Cairo lies on the banks of the Nile River and offers much to explore.

If you choose to take a taxi, please be aware that only white taxis have meters so you will need to negotiate the price for your route if you use the black and white ones.

Things to do in Cairo

No matter if you've come from abroad to enjoy a relaxing holiday or if you're in town for business, Cairo offers some excellent attractions for international and local travellers alike.

Discover the Great Pyramids of Giza

Marvel at the Pyramids of Giza, one of the prime tourist attractions in Cairo. The pyramids are one of the ancient wonders of the world and represent unmatched engineering, even by modern standards. The stone structures hold the tombs of Cheops (Khufu), Mycerinus (Menkaure), and Chephren (Khafre). This cluster of pyramids is a must-see if you want to explore the greatest tourist attractions in Cairo.

Cairo Tower

The Cairo Tower, located on Gezira Island, is a concrete structure 187 metres high. The Nile River flows around the tower, which makes it a major tourist attraction. The tower's design is based on the lotus flower and consists of a circular observation deck. A single rotation takes over an hour, and dusk is the best time to visit the tower.

Choose a clear day to plan your visit to get a full view from the tower as Cairo can be smoggy. There are many restaurants nearby serving a variety of dishes and beverages, or choose the restaurant on a lower floor of the tower for its panoramic views.

Explore Islamic Cairo

Islamic Cairo, also known as Historic Cairo, was once the core of the city itself and as such offers a unique perspective into the city’s past. Not only are there mosques, ancient madrasas (Islamic schools), mausoleums, and even palaces to explore but also Khan el- Khalili shops that sell tiles, ceramics, textiles, spices, perfumes, and more.

Islamic Cairo is characterised by the preserved architecture of the ancient Islamic empires. You can explore a wealth of history here or visit the Sultan Hassan and the Al-Azhar mosques. For the best views, climb up to the roof of the Bab Zuweila.

Cairo’s Egyptian Museum

Stroll through the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, home to great collections and exhibits that bring the world of the pharaohs to life. The museum has over 100 exhibition halls and 17,000 artefacts to see, including masterpieces such as the Book of the Dead, the coffin of Petosiris, the Sarcophagus of Queen Hatshepsut, and even the gold treasures from Tutankhamun's tomb.

The Karnak Temple

Explore the ancient Karnak Temple in Luxor, which took over 1000 years to build, and immerse yourself in the complexity of this incredible religious site. Luxor is located in the south of Egypt, roughly 700 kilometres from the city of Cairo. Though it is quite far from the capital, there are easy ways to get to the temple itself, such as taking a sleeper train, a Nile cruise, or even a bus.

The Valley of the Kings

While you are in Luxor, seeing the Valley of the Kings is an absolute must! It is only a 45-minute drive from the temple and is one of the most important World Heritage Sites in all of Egypt. The Valley of the Kings was used as the final resting place for over 60 pharaohs, kings, and queens, including King Tutankhamun and Ramses II to X, for almost 500 years from the 16th to the 11th century BC.

Cruising the Nile River

Take a cruise on the Nile River and marvel at the waterway that has defined Egyptian civilisation. The river played a crucial role in the lives of the ancient Egyptians; it was the first site of the ancient Thebes, which the new pharaohs later occupied. Ancient temples line the riverbanks between Aswan and Luxor, and the sunrises and sunsets over the banks of the Nile are mesmerising.

Cairo Travel Tips

Here are a few tips so you can experience the best Cairo has to offer:

  • Drink purified water rather than drink tap water if you have a sensitive stomach
  • The climate in Egypt is very hot, so stay hydrated and wear loose-fitting clothes
  • Tipping about 10% of the bill is common in restaurants in Cairo
  • Be aware of the appropriate dress code while visiting Egypt. Female tourists are not expected to wear a headscarf or Hijab, but you must dress modestly and avoid clothes that reveal your shoulders and legs
  • Taste the local cuisine when visiting Cairo, such as shawarmas (meat wraps), hawawshi (an Egyptian sandwich), and ful (a delicious bean stew)
  • Getting in and around Cairo City by taxi is cheap. Uber is also accessible if you want to visit different places.
  • Carry hand sanitiser and tissues as not all public restrooms are well-supplied. Before you travel to Cairo, make sure to check the visa requirements.
