All about the trip

Our representative will pick you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza and drive you to Birqash, a small village north of Cairo to visit the famous Birqash Camel Market. You will enjoy a unique experience as you watch merchants buying and selling camels in auctions inside the market, and the traders negotiating and making deals. People from every social standard and also traders go there to get a relatively cheap and guaranteed healthy meat. Also, foreign tourists from all over the world come to this famous market, because they are keen, after seeing all the pharaonic monuments, to see the largest gathering of camels (the ship of the desert). Later on, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Cairo.
