Overview

Join a mesmerizing adventure with a NASCO Tours representative on a 3-hour excursion from Alexandria Port to Cairo, Africa's most populous city. As you travel, you'll pass through restored desert landscapes and modern industrial areas. Upon arriving in Cairo, your first destination is the Citadel of Saladin, a historical fortress built in the 12th century by the renowned Muslim leader Salah ad-Din (Saladin) for defense against Crusader invasions. It stands as a testament to Islamic architecture and resilience. The journey then proceeds to the Giza Plateau to behold the Great Pyramids, the only remaining Wonder of the Ancient World.
