Cairo by Night Tour and Dinner at EL Azhar Park
- At 18:00, pick up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza by your tour guide.
- Most famous Egyptian palaces witnessed many events from the royal era until the emergence of modern Cairo. Abdeen Palace is a rare historical masterpiece that turned into a museum that reflects the luxury of the palace and the crucial events it witnessed from the royal era until the revolution of July 1952. Many people are keen to visit it, one of the most essential and famous palaces built during the rule of the family of Muhammad Ali Pasha in Egypt, where he was the seat of government from 1872 until 1952.
- The Monument to the Unknown Soldier in Nasr City is built in the form of a pyramid in Cairo; the monument is located in the suburb of Nasr City. It was designed by the Egyptian artist Sami Rafie and built by orders of the late Egyptian President Anwar Sadat to commemorate the Egyptians who lost their lives in the War of Attrition and the October 1973 War. The same site was chosen as a place to bury President Sadat after his assassination in October 1981.
- Al-Fishawi Cafe is one of Cairo's famous cafés in the Al-Azhar district. It is also one of the oldest coffee shops in Cairo, dating back to 1797. The cafe was famous and glamorous, thanks to the Egyptian writer Naguib Mahfouz, who was al-Fishawi's favourite. The cafe saw many of the first drafts of his novels and served as a living space to meet friends and lovers of writers, artists, and simple people.
- Al-Moez Street, a street representing the heart of the old city of Cairo, was developed to be an open museum of architecture and Islamic monuments (Barqouq mosque & School in Nahassen, El Aqmar Mosque, the Mosque of El Saleh Tale, The Blue Mosque, the Dome, Hospital, and School of Qalawoon). The street extends from the Bab El Fottoh to the north of Bab Zuwaila in the south, one of Cairo's largest open Islamic museums. It was recognized as one of the largest collections of medieval architectural treasures in the Islamic world.
- Al Azhar Park is one of the most extensive gardens in Greater Cairo and one of the world's most extensive and beautiful gardens, located on an area of 80 acres. The project was announced in 1984 and opened to visitors in 2005, which took more than sevenseven years. It cost more than 100 million pounds, which was paid for by the Aga Khan Foundation for Islamic Architecture.
- Enjoy dinner at Studio Masr to see a Panoramic View of Cairo City. Then, drop off at the hotel.
