Top tips for Melbourne to Cairo
Prepare for the pyramids
Swap the sands of St Kilda Beach in Melbourne for those of the Giza Necropolis in Cairo. Just 12-and-a-half miles (20 kilometres) from Cairo sits one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – the Great Pyramid of Giza. Visit the Giza Necropolis via public transport or book a private tour to learn more about this must-see.
Get lost in Khan el-Khalili
If you enjoy wandering through the laneways of Melbourne, you’ll relish exploring the snaking alleyways of Khan el-Khalili. Plunge into Cairo’s most popular Souk and immerse yourself in the vibrant sights, sounds and smells. Haggle like a local for trinkets, fragrant produce and textiles. Be sure to stop for some traditional Egyptian food at a nearby food-stall or restaurant.
