    I didn't enjoy the city tour.. maybe it is not what I expected, I feel upset.. kids running around, cars going every direction, honk non stop.. carbon monoxide in the air... I looked at the horses... Skinny tiny body, stressed with all the noises & pollution in this city, this so so chaotic to me... I can't imagine how the horses felt..! As this is part of the tour so I have to go with it. At the end of the journey, which I hope ended sooner, the carriage taker forced us to give tips before dropping us off .. from the animals welfare perspective, this is a cruel trade, I hope this can be replaced by electric carriage immediately...

About Cairo

Cairo is Egypt's sprawling capital on the Nile, where the Pyramids of Giza meet medieval mosques, busy bazaars and the treasures of the pharaohs.

On the western edge of the city, the Pyramids of Giza and the Great Sphinx rise from the desert plateau, with the step pyramid of Saqqara and the ruins of Memphis further south. Cairo's great museums, the Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square and the vast Grand Egyptian Museum beside the plateau, hold artefacts spanning thousands of years.

Top-ranked sights in Cairo: Egyptian Museum (Museum of Egyptian Antiquities), Saqqara (Sakkara), Khan El-Khalili.
