Day trip from Hurghada to Cairo by bus. Cairo is not only Egypt's capital and largest metropolis in Africa but also the political, economic, and cultural center of the Middle East. When you visit this multicultural melting pot, you will experience fascinating contrasts: the emerging and pulsating city on the one hand and the millennia-old history and its buildings on the other.

When you cross the Nile in Cairo, you move from one megacity to the next, because on the west bank lies Giza with the pyramids - the only one of the seven wonders of the ancient world still preserved. They have been Egypt's symbol for thousands of years.

Even before the pyramids were built, the guardian of the dead was already in place: the famous Sphinx. This colossal monument depicts a lying lion with a royal head and mane.
Another highlight of your stay in Cairo is a visit to the Egyptian Museum. The tour of the museum runs clockwise from the Old Kingdom to the Late Period. The undisputed highlights are the complete tomb treasures of Tutankhamun, such as his richly decorated mask and his gilded sarcophagus. Cairo is the capital of Egypt and, with around 20 million inhabitants, the largest city in Africa, but that can only be estimated. Cairo is the third largest city in the world with many unique sights from different cultures (Pharaonic, Coptic, and Islamic)

Cairo day trip
It is worth a trip. Cairo is also called the loving city of 1000 minarets because it is home to lots of old, large, small, new, and seeing mosques. Here is the El-Azhar Mosque, the world's first and world-famous Islamic university. The alabaster citadels and many mosques belonged to the Ottoman King Mohamed Ali and are still beautiful and very well preserved.
