El Qulan Mangrove Forest

Reviewed By AMohsen - Port Said, Egypt

It is another hidden gem. This spot is so picturesque where there is Mangrove forest along the shoreline, in the sea, and a big one is like an island in the middle of the sea that allows pretty pictures. There is only one problem with the long queues for shower rooms and toilets.

Wadi Degla

Located only 15 minutes from the Cairo suburb of Maadi, this rugged valley contains a wide variety of animal life including deer, hares, red foxes, reptiles, Egyptian turtles, twelve species of resident and migrant birds and 64 kinds of plants.

Reviewed By TTOverseas - Cairo, Egypt

While this would not be on my tp ten list if visiting Cairo for the first (or second or maybe third) time, as a resident of Cairo having a protected wadi area so close is really appreciated. This was our go to place for an "adventure" when my kids were smaller (2-10 +/-) and now we go for mountain biking and picnics. The area gets busy with family and teens (looking for privacy...) on holidays or weekends, but is empty early Friday and on weekday afternoons. The BBQ areas can be dirty, but we bring our lunch and can stop anywhere- plenty of undisturbed, quiet areas left. This is probably the closest and easiest "desert" area to get to near Cairo.

Banana Island (Gezira el-Mozh)

Reviewed By Johnanddragon - Manchester, United Kingdom

After a lovely relaxing boat ride we arrived at Banana Island, (not really possible if mobility issues,) and were taken on a tour of the many varieties of different fruits and herbs that are grown there. We were taught how the fruits grow and how to recognise when ready to harvest. All very peaceful. I definitely did not approve of the caged desert fox, monkeys or crocodile. Anyway, a nice end to a wonderful 2 day tour.
