Itinerary

1. Camel market
Pickup from your hotel in Cairo or Giza by tour guide to start your tour . Egypt’s largest camel market is held at Birqash (pronounced Bir’ash), a small village 35km northwest of Cairo, just on the edge of the Delta’s cultivated land. It's not for the faint of heart – many traders treat the camels with intense cruelty – but it's a very local experience. Hundreds of camels are sold here every market day, with the liveliest action between 7am and 10am. Tour Finishes with drop off at Customer Hotel in Cairo or Giza
