Overview

This unusual Cairo experience lets you see the city with local eyes. You will visit a local market and explore Egypt’s local neighbourhoods by tuktuk, moving through the everyday streets of Cairo and into the nearby countryside. The trip focuses on local areas rather than the usual tourist landmarks, offering a different perspective on life in and around the city. As you move through market lanes and ride through neighbourhoods, you will explore local sites and unusual Cairo attractions that show everyday Egyptian living. Along the way, the tuktuk ride will allow you to cover short distances between neighbourhoods and to see parts of the countryside that are often missed on standard tours. This option is aimed at travellers who want a more local view of Cairo and its surrounding areas.
