A QUICK GUIDE TO CAIRO, EGYPT

Cairo, Egypt is so rich in history and culture (both ancient and modern). There is so many things to do and see in Egypt and I can honestly say I had the most amazing experience. Standing in front of those gigantic Pyramids of Giza was honestly breath taking. Climbing inside of the pyramids was very hot and had a lot of stairs (helloooo unexpected cardio exercise). It was also very claustrophobic at times inside the pyramids, but definitely a great experience! In Cairo, Egypt there are extremely nice people but also some not, so watch out for the scammers and people in the markets that try to stop you! Don't talk with strangers or trust them, especially those who seem to be super friendly.
