To Cairo with Love
Overview
Visit Cairo, only 225 kilometres (140 miles) from Alexandria, and bring an eccentric vibe to your holiday. The Pyramids of Giza are a must, particularly for those who haven't seen them before. Those preferring to explore the modern Cairo will be spoiled for choice, from the city's many restored palaces to its performing arts centres, contemporary art galleries, numerous museums and the Cairo Opera House. No visit to the city is complete without a trip to the Moez area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Khan El Khalili, the 1,000-year-old market.
