Egypt has been known as the cradle of civilization for centuries and also a cradle for inspiration, the source of many people's discoveries and experiences. A vacation in Egypt is a unique experience, a must do at least once in your life. You will be catapulted into a fascinating world, steeped in history, full of contradictions. Egypt will stimulate all your senses: smell the freshness of flowers, the death in the pyramids, watch people packed in crowded areas and their unusual habits, touch the history...
Tourists frequently visit Cairo too quickly, as a leg of a all-inclusive journey that let them touch many places in one week only. Too bad, because the only city of Cairo deserves a dedicated trip of at least 4 or 5 days: immerse yourself in the daily life atmosphere of Cairo, observe its shades recalling the yellow ocher of the desert; meet the locals, listen to their stories and enjoy learning the art of bargain. Take a old and dirty taxi to discover the thousand of faces this shy city reveals only to those travelers willing to explore its deepest intimate: from the streets of the luxury hotels in Zamalek and Garden City, to the most poor and dirty suburbs you'll get into to reach the pyramids. Relax on the banks of the Nile, with the Muzzein call to pray in background, when you are stressed by the continuous noises generated by the intense traffic.
