In and around Egypt

In these days of constant growth and development, it's sometimes hard to say where a city begins and where it ends. One thing's for sure, though: not all of the things that are truly worth seeing are necessarily in the city center. In many cases a trip to the edge of town or even into the surrounding areas is well worthwhile. We've put together for you a list of things that are definitely not to be missed in and around Egypt.
