#History

Also known as the Cairo Necropolis is a very interesting place to explore. The juxtaposition of life and death makes it very unique. The city has many historic tombs from the Islamic-era.

Tombs are structures often with a few rooms and even a garden.

Many inhabitants of the city were caretakers that moved there with their families and others followed suit.

It was really interesting to me to witness how people here carry on with their everyday lives.

"Extremely kind, helpful, and hospitable!! Did the pyramid and Sakkara tour with them and it was exceptional!! Great experience all around. "

Le Passage Cairo Hotel & Casino

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 2 separate times during our trip when we had flights leaving and arriving in Cairo. The shuttle to the airport was fast and easy. The shuttle pickup from the airport was also super easy. All of the staff ate very helpful and friendly. Everyone speaks english. Highly recommend the room that comes with the butler lounge (alchol and non alchol beverages, snacks, desserts, fruit). We loved having beers at the pool bar and the Oranjerie Restaurant food and service was excellent. The rooms and amenities are high quality. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Both nights we stayed were comfortable and relaxing. Would stay again."

Radisson Blu Hotel Cairo Heliopolis

10/10 Excellent

"Only stayed for one night but the room was spacious, very nice pool area on the roof top and we were able to get food in the bar area by the pool in the evening for a very reasonable price. We found ourselves stuck and in need of a very short notice reservation and the hotel were very accommodating. They had a pianist playing in the lounge/lobby which was really nice. I would love to return and stay for longer because from the small amount of time we spent here it seemed a really nice and luxurious place to stay. If you need somewhere close to the airport, this would be a great pick."
