What to expect

  1. 2h · Admission ticket included
    Felucca Ride on the Nile.
    Step aboard a traditional Egyptian Felucca, a wooden sailboat that has glided along the Nile for centuries. As the sun begins to dip toward the horizon, you’ll sail past river islands, bridges, and Cairo’s city lights shimmering on the water. Feel the cool evening breeze, watch local fishermen at work, and enjoy the quiet rhythm of the river away from the traffic and crowds. The slow drift of the boat, the glow of the sunset, and the reflection of the skyline make for a peaceful, romantic experience that captures the essence of Cairo at twilight.
  2. Cairo Tower
    2h · Admission ticket included
    After your time on the Nile, rise above the city at the iconic Cairo Tower. Located on Gezira Island, this 187-meter-high landmark offers a breathtaking 360° panorama of Cairo and the Nile. From the open-air deck, spot the glowing bridges, Zamalek’s leafy streets, and even the faint outline of the Pyramids in the distance. It’s a spectacular way to see the city transform from golden sunset to sparkling night.
