We have written about the two most common questions we are asked regarding Cairo excursions below, however if you would like any additional information feel free to ask away.

What is there to see on a Cairo Excursion?

Cairo probably has the most sights you will already be aware of out of the Egyptian cities. From the amazing Pyramids of Cairo to the Cairo Museum housing the majority of ancient Egyptian treasures such as King Tutankhamen's treasures, it's impossible to get bored around Cairo.

Some things you will see in Cairo:

  • Cairo City
  • Cairo Markets and Bazaars
  • Cairo Fortresses

Depending on the Cairo excursion you book, you may not necessarily this exact list, for more information see individual excursions for more information.

1 Day Excursion to Cairo or 2 Days?

Were often asked by our customers if they should take the 1 day Cairo excursion or the 2 day trip.

1 Day Cairo Excursion

In short the 1 day Cairo excursion will show you the most well known, and most interesting parts of the city such as the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Cairo Museum. For most people this is that they have learnt about back in school, seen on TV and read about in books, and it's what people think about when they think of Cairo.

2 Day Cairo Excursion

The 2 day Cairo excursion gives more of an insight into Egyptian life. We explore the City of Cairo in more detail and take you around the bustling Bazaars and markets. You'll see the spectacular mosques and architecture of Cairo and stop off for tea and coffee in the Cairo restaurants and cafes.

It's not as busy as the first day, but we think just as interesting as it gives you a real insight into Cairo life and shows you the parts of Cairo tourists often don't see.

We have made sure that you could go home after the 1 day excursion to Cairo and feel like you have finally seen in first person all the sights of Cairo you've grown up seeing and learning about. If you're interested in Egyptian culture, history, architecture, or just want to discover more about Cairo then the 2 day excursion is for you.

Cairo by Bus or by Plane?

We offer 2 ways of getting from Sharm to Cairo, by bus and by plane. To be honest the deciding factor is usually cost, however there are advantages to both trips.

Cairo Excursion by Bus

This trips is substantially cheaper than flying to Cairo, but as you can imagine it is a long way from Sharm to Cairo and this is why many people prefer to fly. Although the majority of the way to Cairo will be in the dark, when it is light the views of the Suez canal amongst other things is often said by many people to make it worth not flying.

The coach has a toilet and refreshments can be purchased on board, we also make sure you get lots of break to stretch your legs which many of our customer also enjoy as they get to stop at different places they wouldnt have if they flew.

Cairo Excursion by Plane

Our most popular excursion and the one we are famous for! Although flying to Cairo costs more than taking the coach, people often feel it's worth spending the extra money on a once-in-a-lifetime day.
