Adventure Activities Cairo

Here is a list of fun activities in Cairo which you can enjoy on your next trip.

The streets of Islamic Cairo is the place where you cannot get any help from amps in your hand and you will be very confused about where to go next and that is the most fun part about this place because you will have no idea where to go and in order to get away from the crowd you might end up finding something that you could not even imagine of getting in Egypt. These streets are completely insane but they are also worth the time and efforts as it is a great experience after all.

Climbing to the top of a mosque which is just beside the bab Zuwayla Minaret and from there you will get a bird’s eye view of the city of Cairo. The best time to climb up this mosque is just before the sunset so that you can watch how the city gets in the color of oranges as the sun goes down on this city.

The best stuff to do in Cairo is experiencing the underground passage right next to the hanging church. The underground passage leads to the maze of streets which creates the heart of Coptic cairo. It is the most famous sight in the city because it is build on the top of passage of a Roman fortress and people are very curious to know about the passage from the inside.

You must visit the Egyptian Museum even if you are not a museum person and the reason for doing so is that you can get into random stuff to do in Cairo and enter this museum. This museum is completely filled with priceless antiques belonging to the history of this country and this city which is very exciting to see and have experiences from such a close distance.

People who love adventure sports can go to the outskirts of this city and have a great time. There are dirt bikes, quad bikes, buggies and 4 wheel drive vehicles on which you can race and beat your rival’s time and track records. It is usually filled with rookies and lover of adventure sports but if you are lucky enough you might see some of the professionals practicing and trying skills at very high level of these outdoor activities.

Sauradip's 7 days trip to Cairo

The highlight of the trip was our wonderful guide Mr. Ahmed, who is an egyptiologist and went beyond his call of duty to help us. The hotels were okayish and the experience with the travel agent was above average.

Dhannya's 5 days trip to Cairo

We had a fantastic time in Egypt. Mr. Amaan Siddiqui expertly planned our Egypt trip, while Ms. Shima's Cairo tour and Mr. Mohmud's Alexandria tour brought history to life. Mr. Tahir's outstanding driving services ensured our comfort throughout. Their professionalism, knowledge, and flexibility made our trip truly unforgettable! The Nile cruise dinner was the best memory of all.

S's 7 days trip to Cairo

Entire trip was going well until cruise came in picture…3rd class cruise was booked, they were huge discrimination with INDIAN TOURISTS in cruise but agency didn’t take any action. We missed 3-4 monuments just because of cruise. Looking like it was total waste of time and money. Best memories spoiled by cruise, we don't have memories .

Parvaiz's 6 days trip to Cairo

It was Amazing trip arranged b travel Triangle. I had opted for the premieum package from Flying Fleet Adventures where I connected with Mr Amaan.I later found out that he is a Egypt Specialist and has helped many travellers experience Egypt in the best way possible. Talking about the trip.Egypt is not an easy destination it is nearly impossible to do it alone without any guide otr help as there is a language problem and the people heckle you a lot trying to sell anything and everything at 4 times the cost . Amaan had arranged everything so well. Guides: Each guide in Cairo/Hurgada/Luxar/Aswan/Abu Simbl was very fluent with english and had in depth historical knowledge of the places we were visiting .Also the bonus was they were amazing photographers as well and knew the exact spots for good photos .Thanks to them we got many exiting and memorable photos. Food: Food was totally taken care of ,we loved the Arabian cuisine but there was Indian option available as well. Transportation : The vehicles provided were top notch and were well maintained.The drivers were very friendly and helpfull and totally on time . Stay: The best of the Hotels(Rameses Hilton/Hilton Hurgada/Steigenberger etc ) the hotels were amazing with very good properties and everytjing was prearranged and we had very smooth checkin and checkout. All the internal tickets to all monuments and the tips etc was pre arranged and we just breezed through each place saving a lot of time and unnecessary haggle. There was no hidden or extra charges in any activities and that felt nice . Amaan/Ali were connected throughout in case of any doubts . Overall it was one of the best trips we had and it has built within us strong faith on Travel Triangle. Thanks Guys ! Hoping to make more memories together in near future as we travel more.

Shubhankar's 7 days trip to Cairo

First the good things: 1. Customized trip planning by Lalith - all questions answered, and offered many suggestions. Very helpful. 2. The Visa processing part was smooth 3. The trip guides/drivers were absolutely on time. I was floored by this - very very commendable 4. Guides were pretty knowledgeable and non-pushy 5. Well-behaved guides and drivers and the co-ordination was near perfect Things that need to change/improve: 1. The requirements for travel were either COVID-19 vaccination certificate or COVID-19- testing for non-vaccinated people. This IS NOT REQUIRED according to the VFS site and should not have been there on the list. This was a waste of money and added hassle. 2. TIPS: It was mentioned tips are mandatory and $5 per person/day was to be collected. But when we landed no one mentioned or collected it. When we left Cairo for other cities and the cruise - everyone asked for tips, which we paid. Found out the on-ground people had not communicated about it and the end vendor wasn't aware or wasn't receiving it. So we ended up paying more than what was necessary. My suggestion is to let customers know that tipping is a part of Egyptian tourism culture and what the normal/general tips are let them handle it so that at least the deserving people receive it. 3. The cabin for the cruise was a bit small for 3 people. I wish during planning I was offered a few choices about different sized rooms with each costing so that I could make an informed decision.

Dasdeya's 7 days trip to Cairo

We had a great time with our family in Egypt. Many thanks to Travel Traingle for their management. We had a smooth trip. We went with two senior members and one toddler. They made sure to execute the plans as per schedule. The agent from India, Aman was very polite and answered whenever we had any question prior and in the middle of the trip. The agent from Egypt, Ali was polite and well mannered as well. At the day of Eid, when we were supposed to visit one place in Luxor in the evening, the guide was not available and we got to know that once we were ready and waiting for him. We contacted Aman since Ali was unavailable. Aman contacted and let us know about the plan being postponed to next day. We had a great trip next day and we covered all the places. I think, due to Eid, we had this minor issue. otherwise, everything went great! We would definitely recommend this travel planner for your next Egypt trip.
