Best time to go
The most comfortable time to visit Cairo attractions is usually from October to April, when daytime temperatures are milder than in summer. Early morning is often best for shorter queues and lower heat, while Ramadan and major public holidays may bring altered opening patterns or busier entrance periods.
02 Overview
A first look
I can draft a complete marketing block for the Mary Tree but need a few factual details first. Please confirm exact location, opening times, inclusions (guide, transfer, entrances) and typical visit duration.
Background
The facts
Mary Tree in Cairo is a site visit centered on access to the Mary Tree area and its immediate grounds. As an attraction ticket, it is a self-guided entry product rather than a packaged sightseeing programme, so visitors use their ticket at the entrance gate and explore the site at their own pace.
The ticket grants single-entry admission for the selected category, such as adult, child, or concession where available. Tickets are arranged through Discovery Tours Egypt and sent by email as a PDF after confirmation; some venues may require a printed copy, so it is prudent to bring one to the gate.
Opening hours and last-admission times can vary seasonally, and entrance procedures may include security screening and bag checks. Photography rules vary by venue, so travellers should confirm the current policy on arrival or through official information before visiting.
For planning purposes, allow extra time for ticket validation and security, especially during busy periods and public holidays. This type of ticket is best suited to independent visitors who want admission only, without transport or a scheduled programme.

Asked & answered
Frequent questions
-
01 What is Mary Tree?
Mary Tree is an attraction ticket for a named historic tree site in Cairo. We issue the ticket directly as a licensed Egyptian tour operator and include a printable voucher with your entry confirmation. The site is small and may have limited facilities; most visitors spend a short time on site. -
02 Where in Cairo is Mary Tree located?
Mary Tree is located in Cairo; we provide the exact address and meeting point on your ticket voucher. Allow extra time for Cairo traffic when planning transfers. If you require a private car or specific pickup time, tell us when booking and we will arrange it. -
03 How long should I plan for a visit to Mary Tree?
Plan 30 to 60 minutes for the Mary Tree visit, including any queuing and photographs. The site itself is compact, so many clients combine it with a nearby museum or church visit on the same morning. If you prefer a relaxed visit, build in extra time for travel and short commentary. -
04 Do I need to book Mary Tree tickets in advance?
We recommend booking Mary Tree tickets in advance, particularly in high season or during religious holidays. We issue the ticket and voucher directly as a licensed Egyptian tour operator rather than reselling third-party printouts. Walk‑in entry may be possible but is subject to on-the-day limits and staffing. -
05 Is Mary Tree wheelchair accessible?
Accessibility varies; we cannot guarantee full wheelchair access at the Mary Tree site. Small historic sites in Cairo commonly have uneven paving, single steps and narrow gates. Contact us with your mobility requirements before booking so we can verify access and arrange assistance or an alternative if needed. -
06 Can I take photographs at Mary Tree?
Photography for personal use is generally permitted at Mary Tree unless an on-site sign or staff state otherwise. Commercial photography, tripods or flashes may require prior permission; tell us in advance if you plan professional or equipment-heavy shoots so we can request authorisation.

AswanAbu Simbel Temples, Aswan
Abu Simbel lies about 280 km south of Aswan and is reached by a 40‑minute flight or a 3.5–4 hour road transfer. As a licensed Egyptian tour operator, we arrange private early flights and timed private‑car arrivals so clients avoid coach crowds and the hottest hours. The twin sites are the Great Temple of Ramesses II and the Small Temple of Nefertari, moved to higher ground between 1964 and 1968 during an international relocation campaign and included in the Nubian Monuments UNESCO listing. Trade‑offs: a same‑day return requires an early start and either a long road journey or a small‑plane seat; shade is limited on the forecourt.
AswanAbu Simbel Temples – Sun Festival (22 Feb / 22 Oct)
See the twice-yearly solar alignment at Abu Simbel on 22 February or 22 October when sunlight reaches the inner sanctuary. The twin rock temples were carved for Ramses II and honour Amun‑Re and Ra. They were moved in 1964–1968 and form part of the UNESCO World Heritage 'Nubian Monuments from Abu Simbel to Philae'. Abu Simbel is approximately 280 km south of Aswan (about 3.5 hours by road). We are a licensed Egyptian tour operator and can arrange timed-entry tickets, private road transfers and an Egyptologist briefing when available. Unlike same-day coach runs, we recommend an overnight in Aswan to avoid very early road departures and rushed visits; expect limited shade at the forecourt and large crowds on festival dates.
CairoAl-Moez Street Entry Ticket
Al-Moez Street is a medieval Cairo thoroughfare lined with Fatimid and Mamluk-era monuments, gates and historic façades. This admission grants access to the pedestrianised street and its visible monuments, including views toward Bab Zuweila and the Mosque of Al-Hakim. As a licensed Egyptian tour operator, we arrange the ticket and send it to you by email as a PDF after booking. Unlike a museum admission, the street is an open historic quarter rather than a single indoor site, so visiting times are flexible but subject to seasonal opening hours and special events.
