Tour Details

Having picked you up from your hotel in Cairo or Giza, we'll make our way to the historic centre of one of the largest cities in Africa.

Our first stop will be the Cairo Citadel, an enormous medieval fortress that is the best-known non-ancient monument in the city. Inside, we'll visit the beautifully decorated Mohamed Ali mosque, known as the alabaster mosque for the soft white stone used in its construction.

Next, we will go to the Khan el-Khalili market, the most famous in Cairo, characterized by its labyrinthine streets. Khan el-Khalili is an ideal place to buy souvenirs and reproductions of ancient Egyptian objects.

We'll stop to eat after visiting the market, with a menu including various salads and a main course with rice and vegetables. For dessert, we’ll have a refreshing fruit salad.

In the afternoon, we will spend an hour and a half exploring the Egyptian Museum, one of the world’s most important museums dedicated to Pharaonic civilization. Here, you’ll see numerous pieces that highlight the grandeur of ancient Egypt, including the famous Golden Mask.

We'll pass through Coptic Cairo, visiting Al-Muallaqa, known as the hanging church, constructed upon the ruins of the tower of Babylon. We will conclude by visiting the church of Saints Sergius and Bacchus, known as the cave church, where the holy family was hidden after fleeing to Egypt.

This sightseeing experience will conclude back at your hotel approximately 8 hours after pickup, having discovered the most important places of interest in Cairo.
