Cairo's palaces and mansions are an extraordinary day trip destination and are a great way to learn about the history of places that were once inhabited by royalty or aristocrats and where the city's high society used to meet.

Only on our Around Egypt in 14 days (14 Days in Egypt Tour) do we offer our exclusive Palaces of Cairo tour: a 1-day add-on for the standard arrival day (day 1). On this Egypt history tour, you get a head start on your Egypt experience by beginning with a visit to two of the most lavish palaces in Cairo, that have a world of fascinating stories to tell.

You will begin our Egypt historical tours with a visit to the posh Heliopolis district of Cairo to see the Baron Empain Palace. The palace was constructed in 1911 by Belgian architect Alexandre Marcel, whose works include the French Embassy in Tokyo and several projects for King Leopold II of Belgium. Inspired by Hindu temples, the impressive mansion was built at the behest of Baron Édouard Empain, a wealthy Belgian entrepreneur and amateur Egyptologist. The estate was occupied by the Baron's family until the early 1950s, after which it was abandoned and fell into disrepair. After an extensive restoration project by the Egyptian government, the palace has been returned to its former glory. Venture inside, and you may feel echoes of the ghosts of the Baron and his family that are rumored to wander the halls.

Next on our Egypt history tour you will tour El Manial, the site of the Prince Muhammad Ali Palace and Museum. The palace is an architectural showcase and is surrounded by verdant historical gardens and a forested nature park. Step inside and find yourself transported back in time to the 19th-century Alawiyya Dynasty, where the dazzling collection of manuscripts, textiles and masterpieces of brass and crystal surround you.

The best way to get to know the culture of Egypt is by visiting this beautiful country and getting close to the Egyptian people and seeing the archaeological sites in Egypt with your own eyes. During our Egypt historical tours, we enable you to get to know the culture, heritage, customs, traditions, and lifestyles of the Egyptians. This is done by visiting not only various Egypt historical landmarks and objects of religious worship and museums, but also by participating in Egyptian festivals and celebrations, cultural events, as well as in everyday life.
