Make an online hotel reservation in Cairo and you will be able to visit one of the major attractions in the world at Gizah...The Pyramids.

Gizah is a large suburb of Cairo and travelling to the Pyramids gives you a real sense of 'WOW' as they appear on the skyline. The Pyramids are protected by the Egyptian Government and access and security screening is normal, but entrance fees are still very cheap. This is one visit that remain in your memory for ever!

Cairo itself is a very busy city with a population of 20+ million with a workforce that ebbs and flows throughout the day. All of the best known hotel chains have hotels in Cairo, many of them right on the banks of the River Nile that meanders through the city. Nighttime photographs of the myriad of boats that navigate the waters are a must.

The 'black and white' public taxis are not reccommended as their standards are not high. If you do travel, hire a 'limousine' and agree the fare at the start of the journey.

The Cairo Museum, which has over 200,000 exhibits, is where Tutankhamuns golden coffins can be seen. There is also the Great Mosque of Muhamed Ali that stands above the city.

It may well be worth having a guide. This will help keep unwanted street hawkers away from you. On entry to Egypt you pay a tax for the 'Tourism Police'. This actually is well worth it as they are on every street corner and are extremely proactive in reducing the harassment you may otherwise encounter.

 Make an online hotel reservation in Cairo and go and see the oldest civilisaton in the world. Cairo is also famous for its perfumes and oils. As a real momento, have you and your partners names hand painted onto real papyrus. The Pyramids of Gizah and Cheops Pyramid are what evryone knows of in Cairo, but much more awaits!
