Cairo
From Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo
Cairo is Egypt's capital on the Nile, with the Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square and the old bazaar of Khan el-Khalili; the Pyramids of Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum are in Giza, next to the city.
The road follows the Gulf of Suez north from Sharm El Sheikh, crosses under the Suez Canal through the Ahmed Hamdi Tunnel near Suez, then runs west on the Cairo to Suez road.
There are several checkpoints on the way, including at the tunnel: keep your passports and visas with you in the car.
Do not take photos at the tunnel or the checkpoints: photographing military sites, the Suez Canal included, is against the law in Egypt.
