What to bring
    • Modest Clothing: Because the tour involves visiting religious sites (mosques and churches), conservative dress is required. Both men and women should wear clothing that covers their shoulders and knees. Women should also bring a lightweight scarf to cover their hair when entering mosques.
    • Comfortable Walking Shoes: Expect a significant amount of walking, often on uneven surfaces or cobblestones around the Citadel and Old Cairo. Slip-on shoes are highly recommended, as footwear must be removed before entering the mosques.
    • Sun Protection: Cairo is sunny year-round. A wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and high-SPF sunscreen are essential for the outdoor portions of the tour (like exploring the Citadel).
    • Water Bottle: Staying hydrated is critical, especially during the warmer summer months.
    • Camera or Smartphone: To capture the stunning architecture, intricate details, and panoramic views of Cairo from the Citadel.
    • Small Cash (Egyptian Pounds): Handy for small purchases, tipping, or paying for shoe covers at certain mosques.
    • Light Jacket or Sweater (Seasonal): If traveling during the winter months (November to February), a light outer layer is great to have since mornings and evenings can be surprisingly cool, and the stone interiors of churches and mosques can feel chilly.
