Highlights
- Tahrir Square - The square is subject to frequent gatherings which can be volatile, and really should be avoided by foreigners during those times. In calmer moments the square shows the wear and tear of revolution but is pretty central to modern Egyptian political life. Just west of the roundabout is a street called El-Tahrir Street. It is covered in murals depicting the revolutionary feelings. Great artwork. Warm people. Depending on the political climate, worth taking a look.

Wonderful Day at the Cairo Tower - Had a wonderful day on the Have a walk in old Cairo with a visit to Cairo tower tour. I very much enjoyed the 1 hour boat tour on the Nile river it was so calm. The walk in Old Cairo was great and I got to take many photos !! The traditional lunch was great and the views from the Cairo Tower were magnificent and truly my highlight since I'm a solo traveler and travel with 2 real cameras. My tour guide Mr. Kerollos Haneen was wonderful and very informative regarding the history of Cairo and also very patient. He was able to answer all of my questions since I had so many !! Thank you again Mr. Haneen I had such a pleasant day and thank the driver Mohommed for me.

A Great Day in Cairo - This was a wonderful tour thanks to Amgad, the tour director and his very skilled driver. He was at the pickup point early waiting for me. He was so kind and patient and guided us with ease through the city to all the sites. The felucca ride was lovely and peaceful. The Cairo tower was great to get a nice overview of the city and to see the pyramids in the distance. The market place was amazing - i wish i had more time. The restaurant where we had lunch, Abou Tarek, was also a fine choice to get a taste of the local Kushari. I can't say enough nice things about Amgad. I am very grateful for such a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this tour and the company as well.

Interesting - Very interesting walk through old Cairo with stops at the largest mosque and other smaller ones. Interesting to walk through some old streets and finding out about the history and why buildings are positioned in a certain way. The old market street was vibrant but unfortunately a lot of the shops were closed due to it being Ramadan. Guide was very informative. The view from the Cairo tower shows just how big Cairo is. We had a wonderful lunch and finished with a faluca cruise on the Nile. Wonderful day and wonderful tour guide.
