Rute

1. Enjoy a fantastic orientation tour of Cairo on an 8-hour excursion that takes in the major monuments of Old Cairo and the maze of streets and stalls of the historic Khan El Khalili Bazaar. Following a hotel pick-up from Cairo or Giza, you will drive up to the Saladin Citadel, constructed by Salah al-Din on the Moqattam Hills in 1183 AD as a defence against Crusader armies. Known for its fresh air and sweeping views of Cairo, it is now a preserved historic site of mosques and museums, including the Mosque of Muhammad Ali Pasha. Designed by the Turkish architect Yousif Boushnaq, who came to Cairo especially from Istanbul to build the great building, the mosque's alabaster structure stands in beautiful contrast to the sandstone city

About Giza

Giza, i utkanten av Kairo, har Keopspyramiden, Sfinksen og et ørkenplatå som har trukket reisende i tusenvis av år.

Platået rommer tre store pyramider, bygget for faraoene Keops, Khafre og Menkaure, sammen med mindre dronningpyramider og rader av adelsmenns graver. Keopspyramiden er den siste av oldtidens sju underverker som fortsatt står, og Den store sfinksen vokter nedenfor, hogd ut av grunnfjellet ved siden av Khafres dalstempel.
