Cairo & Giza

Cairo is one of the world's great megalopolises — a vast, thrumming city where medieval mosques soar above bazaars and contemporary glass towers rise along the Nile. The Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square houses the world's finest collection of pharaonic artefacts, including Tutankhamun's golden death mask. The Grand Egyptian Museum — one of the largest archaeological museums on earth — opened near Giza in 2023. Just outside the city on a limestone plateau, the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx represent the apex of ancient engineering. Old Cairo's Coptic quarter and the atmospheric Khan el-Khalili bazaar round out a city that demands multiple days of exploration.
