Cycling day trip from Giza to Cairo

Kick off your cycling adventure in Giza, home to the iconic Pyramids and the mythical Great Sphinx. This ride to Cairo is a leisurely tour that covers a little over 33 kilometers, perfect for a relaxed day out on quieter roads. Most of your journey is on laid-back streets with very minimal traffic, giving you ample time to soak in your surroundings without much distraction.

Your route gently ascends and descends, with a maximum elevation of just a bit over 33 meters, making it beginner-friendly and far from daunting. Although the surface is marked as missing for most parts, just about 3% of your ride is on paved roads, which means you might want to ready your bike for a bit of mixed terrain.

Once you roll into Cairo, explore the vibrant capital filled with bustling bazaars and stunning architecture. Keep an eye out for iconic spots like the Egyptian Museum, where the treasures of Tutankhamun await. This route not only offers a bit of exercise but also a journey through Egypt’s rich tapestry of history and culture. Enjoy the ride!
