Cairo has changed. Your guidebook should too.
Cairo 2027: The Essential Guide to the Pyramids, GEM, and Local Life is the fully revised second edition of the practical guide to Egypt's capital. It is rebuilt around the changes that now shape every visit.
The Grand Egyptian Museum is fully open, with the complete Tutankhamun collection on display. The pyramids are now entered through a new visitor centre, and electric buses take you around the plateau. Major sites have moved to card-only and online tickets, and visa fees and transport options have changed. This edition explains what's different and how to plan around it.
Inside the 2027 edition:
Know Before You Go boxes gather locations, hours, tickets and time needed in one place. QR codes link to online photographs, maps and video walk-throughs.
Whether it's your first trip to Egypt or a return visit, Cairo 2027 helps you spend less time working out logistics and more time enjoying one of the world's great cities.
