Overview

Starting in chaotic Cairo, the largest city in Africa, this journey encompasses all of the traditional and famous sights that come to mind when you think of Egypt. You'll visit amazing temples and pyramids, sail on a Felucca on the River Nile and glimpse dramatic evening sunsets beneath the pyramids. Cairo is a city that can appear daunting at first, but when you get below the surface you'll see it has many exciting and historical pockets to discover. See the best of Egypt on a holiday of a lifetime with Tucan Travel.
