History. and Cityscapes
Cairo and Alexandria pulse with layers of history and modern life, where ancient wonders meet Mediterranean flair and vibrant cityscapes. In Cairo, centuries of pharaonic legacy rise beside bustling souks, elegant mosques, and gleaming new developments reaching skyward. Alexandria, once the intellectual heart of the ancient world, still echoes with Greco-Roman grandeur amid corniche cafés and colonial architecture. Wander through the lively streets, past timeless monuments like the Great Pyramids and Citadel of Qaitbay, and feel the hum of a city constantly evolving. Stand by the Nile or gaze out over the Mediterranean at sunset, and you’ll see Egypt not just as a land of the past—but one still dreaming and building toward the future.
The Pharaohs’ City
Cairo may be surging toward the future, but echoes of its ancient soul still shape the city’s rhythm. You’ll feel it in the call to prayer drifting through the streets, in the shadows of minarets beside glass towers, and in the timeless bustle of Khan El Khalili bazaar. This is a modern metropolis built atop the footprints of sultans and pharaohs—where Mamluk mosques and medieval alleyways coexist with lively cafés and Nile-side promenades. In the historic quarters, artisans still craft brass lamps and handwoven carpets as they have for generations and tucked behind the city’s chaos are quiet courtyards and old bookshops whispering of Cairo’s scholarly past.
Eat Your Heart Out
Yes, Cairo’s Street food is legendary, and yes, Egyptian cuisine is gaining recognition for its bold flavors and timeless recipes. But what truly makes dining in Cairo unforgettable is its deeply rooted culture of hospitality and craft. You can indulge in a lavish meal of Grilled meats, Molokhia, and fragrant rice dishes at a historic restaurant overlooking the Nile. Or you can spend just a few pounds on a bowl of Koshari, layered with lentils, pasta, and spiced tomato sauce—prepared with the same passion and precision passed down through generations. From sizzling Falafel stalls in the alleys of Old Cairo to refined dining in Zamalek, every bite tells a story centuries in the making.

Fashion & Pop Culture
From golden-age cinema to viral TikTok, Cairo has long been Egypt’s beating cultural heart—and a regional trendsetter. This is a city where tradition meets experimentation: where modest fashion and streetwear collide in the boutiques of Zamalek and Downtown, and where local designers reinterpret ancient motifs for the modern runway. Walk through Al-Hussein and Garden City, and you’ll spot bold style choices blending global influences with Egyptian flair. Cairo’s creative scene pulses through indie galleries, underground music venues, and buzzing sidewalk cafés where artists, influencers, and filmmakers gather. Whether you’re browsing handcrafted jewelry, catching a rooftop DJ set, or exploring the graffiti-tagged backstreets of Maadi, you’ll find a city brimming with originality and voice.

More about this tour
Tokyo feels limitless in size and scope and often seems more like a collection of cities than one cohesive whole. At the centre is the Imperial Palace. To the east of the palace is the old city, the historic downtown that came to life during the feudal era (when a castle stood where the palace is today). Here, in neighbourhoods like Ueno and Asakusa, the attractions have a more traditional slant: there are museums, shrines and temples, historic restaurants and artisan workshops.
There are exceptions, of course: Akihabara has reinvented itself first as an electronics district and then again as a subculture centre for anime and manga fans. Ginza and Nihombashi, the mercantile centres of the old city, are today classy business and retail districts.
To the west of the palace is where the feudal lords once had their villas; this developed into the moneyed commercial and business districts of today, such as Roppongi, Akasaka and Aoyama (though there are shrines, temples and museums here too). Harajuku fits in here as well, but its side streets have become synonymous with upstart fashion.
Further west, newer neighbourhoods such as Shinjuku, Shibuya and Ikebukuro developed after the Great Kantō Earthquake and WWII – this is the hypermodern Tokyo of riotous neon and giant video screens. Still further west, past Shinjuku, the collection of largely residential neighbourhoods linked by the Chūō line are havens for creators and free-thinkers.
On and around Tokyo Bay is the city that is still being built: islands of reclaimed land that host leisure and entertainment facilities and soon many venues for the upcoming 2020 Summer Olympics.
