Historic sites in Cairo, such as the pyramids, have horses and camels available to ride. Be careful though as many are severely maltreated and half-starved. It was especially upsetting to sit on a horse who looked healthy enough but was so petrified of his owner he went backwards to escape the whip. Please use caution when riding camels and horses. The tourist industry is what fuels this trade.
