What You’ll Experience

Carol Bar

Kick off the night at a cozy hidden gem tucked away near Bab El Louq. Carol's Bar is an old-school Cairo favorite with dim lighting, local regulars, and an unmistakably retro vibe. Here, you’ll enjoy your first Egyptian beer—cold, crisp, and brewed right here in Egypt. Perfect place to break the ice, meet your guide and group, and soak in an authentic neighborhood bar atmosphere.

35 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Estoril

Step into the classy and historic Estoril Bar, once a popular spot for diplomats, artists, and revolutionaries. This elegant venue feels like stepping into a time capsule. Here, you’ll try a very special drink: the Arak long drink, a licorice-infused Middle Eastern spirit served cold and slightly sweet. A smoother introduction to Egyptian spirits, with a story behind every sip.

40 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Kings Bar

true Cairo classic—King’s Bar is raw, loud, and lively. Think neon signs, football on TV, and tables full of laughter. You’ll enjoy another local Egyptian beer as you take in the energy of this no-frills downtown dive. This is where the fun kicks into high gear.

35 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

El Horreya Cafe

Wrap up the night at the legendary El Horreya, a spacious, historical café that’s been a Downtown Cairo institution for generations. With high ceilings and worn-down charm, this is where locals come to discuss life over tea or beer. You’ll enjoy your final Egyptian beer here—cheers to new friends and unforgettable memories! A perfect mix of Cairo’s past and present, and the best place to end the tour.
