It was strange for me too to consider going to Egypt so I can study belly dance. I went with the belly dance -trip with the main purpose of studiyng dance and learning more about the Egyptian cultural context, but also ended uup seeing some of the great monuments in Egypt. Even if you don't have much time off, you can always go to the pyramids of Gizeh (very close to Caïro) and the sfinx.
Caïro itself is a place you either love or hate. Dusty, dirty, filled with people who see you as a walking bag of money. Learn arabic and cover up, it really helps reduce the nuisance of being asked to buy stuff all the time.
