Khan el-Khalili Market (Cairo) for shopping 4. Nile River felucca ride (Luxor) 5. Egyptian cuisine (try koshari and falafel!) Tips & Tricks: 1. Hire a reputable guide for historical insights 2. Respect local customs and dress modestly 3. Bargain at markets (it's part of the fun!) 4. Stay hydrated and wear sunscreen 5. Visit during winter (December-February) for mild weather Accommodation: I stayed at the Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah, offering stunning views and luxurious comfort.
