Itinerary
Having picked you up from your hotel, we leave Cairo heading North. Our first stop is in Ismailía, a city established in the 19th century as a center for the construction of the Suez Canal.
After a brief tour of Ismailia, we'll proceed to the banks of the Suez Canal. While walking along the canal, we will learn about the history of this significant infrastructure project, which allows ships to travel from the Mediterranean to the Red Sea without circumnavigating Africa.
Afterward, we will enjoy a typical Egyptian lunch at a restaurant with views of the canal.
Once we have recovered our energy, we will begin our return journey to Cairo.
