Cairo rewards the curious. From the ramparts of Saladin's 12th-century Citadel, the whole city spreads below the alabaster domes of the Muhammad Ali Mosque. Descend into Coptic Cairo, where the Hanging Church balances on Roman gate towers and tradition says the Holy Family sheltered at St Sergius.
Finish where Cairo is loudest and most alive: Khan El Khalili, the 600-year-old bazaar. Your guide knows which alleys hold the coppersmiths and which café poured coffee for Naguib Mahfouz — then leaves you time to haggle on your own terms.
