Top Attractions in Cairo
💡 Free to wander. Haggle hard—start at half the asking price. Go in the evening when it's cooler and lit by lanterns. Fishawy Cafe is overpriced but iconic for a tea.
💡 Free to enter. Dress modestly and remove shoes. The guard may ask for a small tip for showing you the hidden upper balcony—it's worth it.
💡 Entry costs around 100 EGP for foreigners. Go on a weekday morning to avoid crowds. The mausoleum-style courtyard is quiet and free to sit in.
💡 Costs 20 EGP entry. Bring a picnic—there's a cheap snack kiosk inside but the restaurant is overpriced. Best at sunset.
💡 Entry about 100 EGP. Combines cheaply with a visit to the Hanging Church next door. No photography allowed in the main hall.
