Hurghada-Cairo 2 days trip

Pyramids and Sphynx

The people who know Cairo say, one would have to find time at least 4 days to get to know this town cursorily.
Well, your beach vacation should not get too briefly, hence, you have with us the possibility to book shorter excursions to the African metropolis.
But still we must say that we recommend an excursion of 2 days. Not for exploring the city two days only, but by this you experience the night in Cairo. At night the metropolis Cairo looks completely different. It shines in an infinite light, gleaming and glistening neon signs promote an Egyptian movie or western pleasure like Coca Cola. The town becomes simply candy-coloured.
Many big hotels are the centre of the high social life and invite in modern clubs to belly dancing shows with superstars. In noble bars and discos the children of the rich drink gin and cocktails and honour the MTV culture which finds its way thanks to TV satellite to them.
And if you look then at the Nile, you find it full from illuminated and brightly decorated holiday boats, which make their round turns. Couples stroll in the mild night air along the Nile promenade, children romp till late night on the streets and everything works like a gigantic fair.
The liveliness of the night seems to make the worries and the oppressive heat of the day forgotten.
Probably it is exactly the night which makes Cairo so charming!

Book with us Cairo in a small tour group of 2-6 people!

Experience an excursion to Cairo privately with an English speaking tour guide who is there only for you!

Interesting excursions in Egypt

The city on the Nile

Cairo is a symphony of chaos, noise, dirt and ungovernable, so you have to describe the capital of Egypt.
But it is true and then again not at all. Those who take a trip to Cairo make a unique blend of contrasts ever observed. Occident and Orient mingle here and show the contrasts between modernity and tradition, rich and poor, of progress and old-fashioned. With its many bars and nightclubs it is very modern in the night-the same as islamic at day time with is more than 1000 mosques. In neighborhoods around the Khan el-Khalili bazaar live the simple people who earn their daily bread very hard, often with two jobs around the clock. People, who don´t know the words travel, leisure and luxury. On the other hand in the district of Zamalek or Maadi Egyptians and foreigners live a comfortable life according to Western levels.
