Package holiday to Cairo

Cairo, the capital of Egypt, is the largest city in Africa and the Middle East — a chaotic, loud, and absolutely fascinating metropolis, watched over by the Pyramids of Giza for 5,000 years. The three pyramids and the Sphinx literally stand on the city's outskirts, providing a surreal contrast between ancient wonder and modern urban chaos.

The Egyptian Museum at Tahrir Square houses the largest collection of pharaonic artifacts in the world, including the legendary gold mask of Tutankhamun. The new Grand Egyptian Museum at the foot of the pyramids will be the largest archaeological museum in the world upon its opening. The Islamic Old Town with the Al-Azhar Mosque, Saladin's Citadel, and the Khan el-Khalili bazaar — one of the oldest markets in the East — is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a feast for all senses.

A felucca ride on the Nile at sunset, when the minarets and skyscrapers are bathed in golden light, is one of Cairo's most magical moments. The Coptic Old Town with its early Christian churches tells another chapter of the city's history. Culinary delights include Koshari, Ful, and freshly squeezed mango juice. October to April is the most pleasant travel time with mild temperatures.

Cairo particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
