Browse trips to CairoThe Destination
Egypt’s capital is a city of layers — pharaonic monuments, medieval mosques, and a modern metropolis of twenty million people, all within a few miles of each other. The Giza Plateau, on the city’s western edge, holds the last surviving Wonder of the Ancient World; downtown, the Egyptian Museum keeps watch over the largest collection of pharaonic antiquities anywhere, Tutankhamun’s gold mask included.
Best time to visit: October through April, when daytime temperatures sit comfortably in the 20s (Celsius). Summer visits are possible but plan indoor time around midday heat.
