Egypt's great capital, the sprawling bustling and poetically confusing city of Cairo is one of the world's oldest cities. Until today, and since ancient history, the capital of Egypt carries an unmatched flavor. An exotic and exciting city, brimming with culture, a modern metropolis of high rises, and the home of the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx.

Cairo is one of the most fascinating cities in the world, as so many civilizations and historical epochs are represented here. Nearby, the Pyramids of Giza, perhaps the most famous human effort ever, is located, along with many other impressive monuments. The central Cairo is a bustling affair, often appearing like a group of major cities without real borders in between. And through the city, the life line of one of the world's earliest civilizations run, the Nile.

People of Cairo are mostly poor, but proud. No matter how many Euros or Dollars travelers bring, they will always know that their people have achieved something more spectacular than any other people. This is more than empty facts, Egyptians have such a strong identity that they have no reason to feel inferior to anybody. Politeness and friendliness to people showing attention to their cultural inheritance, is the result. The friendly ambiance of Cairo is there for anyone to experience.
