Tuk Tuk Tour in Cairo: Explore Local Lifestyle
Overview
If your goal is to arrange a tour of the most important heritage sites, then your itinerary could include not only museums and pyramids but aussi empty spaces for a tuk-tuk ride. A tuk-tuk is a three-wheeled self-propelled vehicle that caters to people’s transportation needs. It first appeared on the streets of Egypt fifteen years ago, coming from India, and has since become part and parcel of transportation in Egypt.
It is one of the most prominent modern ways to attract tourists to a different way of life. Due to the striking form of the tuk-tuk, it has brought an enormous amount of interest to the use of the vehicle in Egypt.

People are forced by circumstances to travel short distances, sometimes a very limited number of kilometers. Using an expensive taxi would be an economic burden. Hence, the idea of providing a cheap means of transportation for such short distances was born, and the tuk-tuk was used for such distances. The tuk-tuk, with its single axle, three wheels, and two-cylinder engine, is the more affordable automobile. In the 1950s, it became more popular in developing nations, especially in Africa, India, and Thailand.
After our tour and tuk-tuk tour of the local markets, you will be driven in a private, air-conditioned vehicle to your lodging in Cairo or Giza.
