Discover Cairo
Visitors can explore numerous museums, mosques and other historical sites like Giza pyramids or explore Islamic Cairo's bazaars with its many shops selling spices and souvenirs. As a major tourist destination in Egypt, it's also home to some excellent restaurants that serve up traditional Middle Eastern cuisine such as kushari (a mix of pasta and lentils) or ta'amia (a fava bean dish).
No visit to Cairo would be complete without taking a cruise down the Nile River - an unforgettable experience! And don't forget to take a felucca ride around sunset; these traditional wooden sailboats will give you a chance to relax while you enjoy stunning views of Cairo's skyline.
