Cairo Tower Visit and Dinner in Cairo
Meet your tour guide at your hotel and head out to enjoy one of Cairo's well-known modern monuments, Cairo Tower. It stands in the Zamalek district on Gezira Island in the River Nile, close to Downtown. Built in 1961, the tower offers 360-degree views across the city. The clearest views are usually in the late morning, after the haze burns off, or in the late afternoon. Looking west, the pyramids mark the limits of the city and the start of the desert. Below, the Nile River flows serenely north to the Mediterranean, seeming to slice Cairo in two. To better facilitate the view, there are also telescopes. Cairo Tower opens every day from 9:00 in the morning until 1:00 the next morning.
Dinner at Al Dawar Restaurant.
Note: Optional Jemezeh Restaurant.
