Cairo, the capital of Egypt, is a city with a rich and fascinating history. Founded over 1,000 years ago, it has been a center of trade, culture, and political power for centuries. With its bustling streets, vibrant markets, and ancient landmarks, Cairo is a city that truly captures the imagination.


During our visit, we were struck by how much the city reminded us of Delhi. Both cities are crowded, hectic, and full of energy, and it was easy to get swept up in the vibrant atmosphere of Cairo.


One of the highlights of our trip was exploring the many museums and cultural attractions that Cairo has to offer. We visited the Egyptian Museum, where we saw the famous King Tut exhibit, and took a Nile river cruise, where we were the life of the party and may have even celebrated a very belated birthday for Kevin Krenk.

But Cairo is not just a city of museums and historic sites. We also had the opportunity to go off-roading in the desert dunes with 4x4s, an adventure that provided a unique and thrilling experience. And, of course, no visit to Cairo would be complete without seeing the famous pyramid of Giza, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

Overall, our trip to Cairo was an unforgettable experience and one that we would highly recommend to anyone looking to explore the rich history and culture of Egypt.
