On-foot explorations of Islamic Cairo, Coptic Cairo, Luxor's temples, and Alexandria's old town.

What is a Walking Tour in Egypt?

Some of Egypt's richest details are best discovered on foot. Our Walking Tours guide you through the narrow lanes of Islamic Cairo, the ancient churches of Coptic Cairo, Alexandria's Mediterranean streets, and temple complexes at a relaxed, observant pace, stopping at artisans' workshops and everyday scenes easily missed from a vehicle.

What is included in a Walking Tour?

  • Expert local guide with deep neighborhood knowledge
  • Carefully chosen route of 2–4 hours
  • Architectural and cultural commentary en route
  • Stops at artisan workshops and local cafes
  • Entry to selected historic buildings and churches
  • Rest and refreshment breaks built in

Where do Walking Tours run?

Our best-loved routes are Islamic Cairo (Al-Muizz Street, the Citadel, and Khan el-Khalili), Coptic Cairo's churches and the Hanging Church, Alexandria's old town and Corniche, and the temple precincts of Luxor's East and West Bank.

How strenuous are Walking Tours?

Most last 2 to 4 hours with a relaxed pace and planned breaks. We can recommend accessible alternatives, and modest dress is suggested for religious sites. Walking tours pair perfectly with our Food Tours and Cultural Immersion experiences.
